Mineral Resources and Energy Minister Gwede Mantashe has announced that three more wind projects have signed project agreements under the much-delayed fifth bid window (BW5) of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP). Mantashe also confirmed that more BW5 projects would be signed in the coming weeks. The three projects, to be built by Red Rocket South Africa, have a combined investment value of R9.3-billion and a combined nameplate of 364 MW.
