Discovery Green, Sasol team up to offer wheeled green electricity to SMEs
Energy trader Discovery Green and fuels and chemical group Sasol have teamed up to form a new venture that will supply wheeled renewable electricity to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are keen to reduce their carbon footprints but are not in a position to sign multidecade power purchase agreements (PPAs). Known as Ampli Energy, the new entity was launched in Sandton by Discovery CEO Adrian Gore and Sasol CEO Simon Baloyi at an event that was also addressed by Electricity and Energy Minister Dr Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, who described it as a pioneering move to “democratise” access to green electricity.
