South African mining, industrial and construction industries services provider Provest Group has successfully established a solar energy system at its Steelpoort plant, in Limpopo province. Provest, which has a particular focus on the platinum, chrome and manganese sectors, implemented the solar power project to both boost energy security at, and reduce the carbon emissions of, its Steelpoort facility. “Loadshedding pushed us to explore alternative energy solutions,” explained Provest Plant Manager Martin Kubyane. “Our reliance on diesel generators contributed to increased carbon emissions. However, we recognised that with a solar installation we would be able to secure our power supply, reduce our dependence on the grid and ensure that we can continue to meet our production targets, while also reducing our carbon emissions. As a responsible organisation, the business case was very clear to us.”
