South Africa: Indian firm plans to supply grid; PV tenders

India’s CESC Ltd plans to set up a 2x600MW plant near the Boikarabelo mine at Waterberg to supply the South African grid. The century-old Calcutta (Kolkata) electricity supply company has many generation projects at home, but this is a rare foreign operation linked to a mining investment. The Boikarabelo mine is being developed by Australian Stock Exchange-listed Resource Generation Ltd (through its wholly owned Bantal Singapore Pte Ltd unit).
