UTeraco, ongumsebenzi wamaziko edatha, ufumene ulwabiwo lokuqala lomthamo wegridi kwiziko likarhulumente laseMzantsi Afrika u-Eskom. Kungekudala iza kuqalisa ukwakha umzi-mveliso we-PV womlinganiselo we-120 MW kwiphondo laseFreyistata eMzantsi Afrika ukuze inike amandla amaziko ayo.
I-Teraco iqhubela phambili ngezicwangciso zokwakha iprojekthi yesola yelanga eyi-120 MW eMzantsi Afrika.
Le nkampani ifumene isabelo somthamo wombane kwiziko likarhulumente uEskom ukuze idibanise le projekthi kwiziko lombane laseMzantsi Afrika. Nje ukuba usebenze ngokupheleleyo, umzi-mveliso wePV kwiphondo laseFreyistata kulindeleke ukuba uvelise ngaphezulu kwe-338,000 MWh yombane ngonyaka.
Amajelo eendaba eMzantsi Afrika anike ingxelo yokuba iTeraco iza kuchitha malunga neebhiliyoni ezi-2 zeerandi (i-106 lezigidi zeerandi) ukugqibezela le projekthi. Lo mzi-mveliso kulindeleke ukuba usebenze kwiinyanga ezili-18.
UTeraco uthe amandla azakuqhutywa kuwo wonke u-Eskom kunye nothungelwano lwamandla kamasipala ukuya kumaziko akhe edatha kuMzantsi Afrika uphela.
“Sikuhambo olude kule minyaka imbalwa idlulileyo ukufumana ezi mvume, kwaye injongo yethu ngoku kukwenza ngokukhawuleza ngethuba,” utshilo umphathi weTeraco uJan Hnizdo.
U-Hnizdo uthe le projekthi inika “ithuba elimangalisayo” lokongeza umthamo wamandla ongezelelweyo kuthungelwano lwegridi yaseMzantsi Afrika.
"Le iya kuba yindlela ekhethekileyo e-Afrika kuba iTeraco ayiyi kuba ngumnikazi weendawo zayo zedatha kuphela kodwa kunye nomthombo wamandla ohlaziyekayo onokuwenza ngawo amandla, ukudala indlela yamandla ezinzileyo ukuxhasa ukukhula," wongezelela.
UTeraco uqeshe iJUWI Renewable Energies South Africa ukuyila nokulawula ukuthenga, ukwakhiwa kunye nokugunyaziswa kwalo mzi-mveliso. Iza kusebenzisa imali-mboleko eluhlaza ukuxhasa ulwakhiwo.
UBryce Allan, intloko yozinzo yeTeraco, uthe le projekthi imele “icandelo elikhulu” lesicwangciso senkampani sokufezekisa i-100% yamandla acocekileyo.
“Ukongezelela kule projekthi, kule minyaka mibini idlulileyo, iTeraco isasaze malunga ne-6 MW yelanga ephezu kophahla edityaniswe nezibonelelo zayo, kwaye esi sixa siza konyuswa siye kutsho kwi-10 MW njengoko izibonelelo ezitsha zisebenza,” utshilo u-Allan.
Ebutsheni bale nyanga, umongameli weli loMzantsi Afrika uCyril Ramaphosa uthe ilizwe liloyisile okona kunqongophala kwamandla ombane, watsho esithi ukuphela kokucinywa kombane “sekufikeleleke ekufikeleleni.”
