Renewable energy company Scatec has undertaken a massive quiver tree planting and replanting operation at its Kenhardt site, in the Northern Cape. The replanting started after the company was awarded the solar project under the Renewable Mitigation Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme. The site is currently under construction and, once it reaches completion, will have a total solar capacity of 540 MW, battery storage capacity of 225 MW or 1 140 MWh, and provide 150 MW of dispatchable renewable power under a 20-year power purchase agreement.
