Seriti Green, the clean-energy unit of South African tycoon Mike Tekes Seriti Resources, has reached financial close and started construction on the third phase of its Ummbila Emoyeni wind farm in Mpumalanga, signaling a major shift in electricity supply in the countrys coal-heavy region.
The project will deliver more than 900 megawatts of renewable energy across seven phases. So far, the company has installed 25 wind turbines near Bethal, Davel and Morgenzon, a milestone in South Africas Just Energy Transition JET. Seriti Green is now leading efforts to replace coal-fired power with clean energy in one of the countrys most traditional mining regions.
