Solarcentury Africa, in an exclusive collaboration with Dallaglio, is set to construct a cutting-edge 7 MWp solar power plant at the renowned Eureka Gold Mine in Guruve, Zimbabwe. This strategic partnership, supported by parent company BB Energy, underscores Solarcentury Africa’s commitment to establishing a robust portfolio of renewable energy facilities in Zimbabwe and the broader Southern Africa region. The solar power plant, aimed at meeting the rising power demand in the area, will not only cater to anchor off-takers but also facilitate trade on a merchant basis. Solarcentury Africa will oversee the project’s design, development, financing, construction, and operation phases, with financial closure expected early next year. The project has garnered full support from the Zimbabwe Investment and Development Agency (ZIDA), actively assisting Solarcentury Africa in obtaining the necessary licenses and permits.
