Anglo has 600 MW keyed up ready to go, green hydrogen also developing rapidly, says Wanblad
All policy in South Africa specifically relating to energy certainly does tend to be moving into a path of time and space where it really is incentivising the building out of renewable energy generation capacity in the country, said Anglo American CEO Duncan Wanblad on Thursday when the London- and Johannesburg-listed company reported its second-highest set of 2022 financial results following its record performance in 2021. On the generation of renewable energy to alleviate South Africa’s electricity shortage, Wanblad said in response to Mining Weekly during a media conference: ‘We have 600 MW worth of projects keyed up ready to go at this particular point in time and quite a lot more on that 3 GW to 5 GW journey.” (Also watch attached Creamer Media video.)
