Loeriesfontein Wind Farm connected to grid

 
Loeriesfontein Wind Farm as well as Khobab Wind Farm, both located in the Northern Cape, are now connected to State-owned power utility Eskom’s grid, through Eskom’s Helios substation and the commissioning of wind turbines has started. “We energised the wind farm substations with Eskom Transmission’s Helios substation on September 28, marking a pivotal point in the construction of both of the wind farms, and will now continue the process of wind turbine commissioning,” explained independent renewable energy developer Mainstream Renewable Power’s country construction manager Kevin Foster.
