ACWA Power Project DAO. Northern Cape, South Africa. The project is a 150 MW dispatchable renewable hybrid plant, which includes a 442 MW solar photovoltaic installation and about 1 200 MWh of battery storage. The installation will be one of the largest in the world.
“Project DAO is set to be yet another ACWA Power flagship project in South Africa, following the success of the Bokpoort and Redstone CSP projects, in offering clean energy to the country and significant socio-economic value to its surrounding communities.”
The ACWA Power DAO – Battery Energy Storage System is being developed by ACWA Power International. The project is owned by ACWA Power International (50%) and Thebe DAO Pty (50%). ACWA Power International and Thebe DAO Pty are the owners. ACWA Power International is the developer.
ACWA Project DAO is jointly owned by lead developer ACWA Power, Thebe Investment Corporation Pty, and Aventro Investments Pty. The plant when completed will have the largest solar PV installation in the country at 442MW and about 1,200MWh of battery storage, one of the largest in the world.
Project DAO, with a total cost of $800 million, will be one of the largest hybrid investments in the South African renewable energy sector, currently in construction.
The Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy, the Honourable Gwede Mantashe, signed the Implementation Agreement and Mr. Segomoco Scheppers from Eskom signed the Power Purchase Agreement with ACWA Power Project DAO signatory Mr. Ashley Singh.
