Enel Green Power South Africa first began operations in the country in 2011 and currently operates over 1.2 GW of renewable energy via its 12 wind and solar power plants located throughout the country. Founded in December 2008, we are the Enel Group company dedicated to the development and management of energy generation from renewable sources at a global level, with subsidiaries in America, Asia
and Africa. With an annual energy production of 32 billion kWh from water, sun, wind and the earth’s heat, we are able to meet the needs of more than 11 million families, avoiding the emission of more than 17 million tons of carbon dioxide each year. We have an installed capacity of 10.571 MW, thanks to 710 power plants in 16 countries and a generation mix that includes wind, solar, hydro, geothermal and biomass. In our opinion, renewable sources are an important tool in order to promote the competitiveness of the production system in several countries and ensure the security of supply of energy sources: indeed, the widespread generation of energy from water, sun, wind and earth’s heat redound to a greater energy independency of nations, safeguarding environment at the same time. Our aim is to grow; increasing substantially our installed capacity and optimizing the technology mix in each country, in order to value the capacity of the single area, leveraging Enel’s operational expertise.
