Proposal Description
Vulpecula Energy (Pty) Ltd (Reg. No. 2021/534272/07) is proposing the establishment of a solar energy generation
facility with associated infrastructure and structures on Portion 10 of the farm Wildebeestlaagte 411 KQ, located within the
Thabazimbi Local Municipality, Waterberg District Municipality, Limpopo Province, approximately 2.5 km SouthWest of Northam. Exigent Engineering Consultants CC has been appointed to oversee the legislative environmental processes applicable to the proposed project. The renewable energy generation facility will use Photovoltaic (PV) technology. The name of the proposed facility will be SPITSKOP SOLAR PARK. The PV Power Plant will have a maximum generating capacity of up to 75 MW. The proposed Spitskop Solar Park will deliver the electrical energy to the Eskom Spitskop substation through a new 88 kV (or 132kV) power line of approximately 1.6 km in length. An 88 kV (or 132 kV) feeder bay will be commissioned and equipped at the Eskom Spitskop substation. The chosen site is suitable for the installation of a
photovoltaic (PV) power plant. It is appropriate morphologically (flat terrain) and regarding the favourable radiation conditions. The available radiation allows a high rate of electric energy production, as a combination of latitude - longitude (24° 57' 14” S, 27° 14' 21” E) and climatic conditions.
