In practice, Soitec has joined forces with Public Investment Corporation (PIC), which represents Government Employee Pension Fund (GEPF), through an equity financing structure. GEPF will ultimately, post the regulated holding period, hold a 40% stake in the project whilst Soitec will only be retaining a minority shareholding in the long term.
Thanks to this transaction, the Touwsrivier solar project is becoming truly local. Soitec will remain the only foreign stakeholder in the project through its contribution of solar equipment and minority shareholding.
Touwsrivier solar power plant has recently fulfilled milestones set for commissioning 22MWp, i.e. 50% of the total capacity. This confirms that the power plant performs in accordance with contractual specifications and validates the power purchase agreements applied to the 44MWp solar plant.
PIC's Dr Daniel Matjila, Chief investment Officer says "We are excited by yet another investment in this sector as the PIC. This investment will contribute to the country's much needed alternative energy needs thus contributing towards easing the current electricity pressures the country is experiencing as well ensure good returns for our client, the GEPF".
