The Enel Group’s South African renewable energy subsidiary Enel Green Power RSA (EGP RSA), has reached commercial operation on its 140 MW Nxuba wind farm in the Eastern Cape province.
The project, whose construction involved an investment of 200 million euros, is expected to generate 460 GWh of energy annually. The wind farm will be supported by a 20-year power supply agreement with the South African energy utility Eskom, as part of the South African government’s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP) tender. With the Nxuba wind farm now online, EGP RSA now has eight operational projects in the country.
