Citrus producer G3 Citrus Estates, in Weipe, Limpopo, has added 812 kW of solar PV and 2.28 MWh of battery storage to its existing solar-powered renewable electricity system, with commissioning set for the end of February. The Venetia diamond mine, established in 1992, spurred infrastructure development that caused the citrus industry in Weipe to thrive, with farmers capitalising on the region’s ideal climate and State-owned utility Eskom’s high-voltage powerline and Pontdrift substation to cultivate high-quality vegetables and export citrus.
