Name of the Project
Adams and Pulida solar photovoltaic (PV) power plants project.

Location
The Adams project is located in the Northern Cape and the Pulida project in the Free State.

Client

Project Description
The Adams and Pulida solar PV plants each have an installed capacity if 82.5 MW and can collectively generate up to more than 300 GWh/y.
