Big 5 Construct South Africa

Historically reliant on coal, South Africa is now transforming its energy mix with investments in wind, solar and hydroelectric power to address ageing infrastructure, supply constraints and power outages. In 2022/23, the country invested nearly $2.1 billion in energy infrastructure, making up 16.20% of all infrastructure spending. 18 major projects worth $2 billion are underway. These include building the Emkhiweni substation, installing transformers in the IPP Highveld South Phase 2, and expanding high-voltage lines in the Erica MTS project. These efforts are set to improve energy capacity, drive economic growth and ensure more reliable energy access.
