Proposed development of the Grootpoort OHL near Luckhoff in the Free State

The activity entails the development of 132kV single-circuit power line to enable the connection of the authorised Grootpoort Photovoltaic Solar Power Plant (DFFE ref.: 14/12/16/3/3/2/835) to the national grid network. This will enable the evacuation of the generated solar electricity. A 200m wide and 8km long grid connection corridor is being assessed for the placement of the power line route. The power line is proposed to connect into the existing Canal Substation. A service road associated with the power line is also proposed to be developed.
