JSE-listed construction and engineering group Murray & Roberts (M&R) has announced that its trading division OptiPower has been awarded contracts by EDF Renewables.

The company was awarded the contracts together with Concor Construction, with which it has also concluded engineering, procurement and construction contracts for the Koruson main transmission substation and the 140 MW San Kraal and Phezukomoya wind farms, located on the boundary of the Eastern Cape and Northern Cape provinces.

M&R’s share of the contracts is valued at R1.2-billion

EDF Renewables – a subsidiary of French utility EDF Reneuvelables – currently operates four wind farms in South Africa.

This project, alongside others shortlisted in the country’s renewable energy sector, is expected to help M&R’s Power, Industrial and Water platform return to profitability in the near term.
