This land is located in central Mpumalanga to the south of Tweefontein and Samoroboro. On the western border of the site there is an Eskom high-voltage substation just off the gravel road that services the area. The proximity of the substation makes the site ideal for a photo-voltaic solar farm that can feed power directly back into the grid. High voltage and medium voltage power lines are linked to the substation. As seen from the aerial view, this part of the country is relatively arid providing maximum sun virtually every day of the year, therefore ideal for a solar farm. The property is also relatively flat with mostly grasses and minor vegetation making it easy for development. The total site area shown is around 234 Hectares (178 + 56 Hectares). The price shown is for the full 234
Hectares since both portions are on one title deed.
In terms of the Thembisile Hani Land Use Scheme 2020 governing the area, “Renewable Energy” (which includes solar farms) is a land use than can be obtained with Special Consent on “agricultural” zoned properties. However, this application will also include environmental impact assessments since any solar farm will be large. Such application will have to be done by the buyer and can take around 18 months depending on what coverage the solar farm will occupy.
