  • INVESTOR FACT SHEET 4. Blyde River Hydro Power Project
    INVESTOR FACT SHEET 4. Blyde River Hydro Power Project A. PROJECT SECTOR: Renewable Energy I. INTRODUCTION The Blyde River (Happy River) or Motlatse River, is a river in Mpumalanga Province South Africa. It flows north through the steep-sided valleys and ravines of the Mpumalanga Drakensberg (Dragon Mountains), before it enters the Lowveld Escapement – one of Africa’s prime wildlife and game reserves destinations. The Blyde River Hydro Power Project is a small Hydo-Electric Project involving the re-engineering and re-establishment of an existing hydro-electric power plant. II. LOCATION South Africa – Mpumalanga Province – Thaba Chweu Municipality III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION This renewable energy project is situated in the environmentally sensitive Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve of Mpumalanga Province. This area attracts over one million tourists a year to the natural wonder of the surrounding Bourke’s Luck Potholes, Gods Window, the Blyde River Canyon and the world famous Kruger National Park. Mpumalanga Province is an attractive Green Energy investment destination in support of the tourism infrastructure and local communities. The existing but non-operational Belvedere Hydro-Electric Power Plant was commissioned in 1911 to supply power to the historic gold mining town of Pilgrim’s Rest. This 2,000 Kw power station was at its time the largest hydro-electric power station in the Southern Hemisphere and Pilgrim’s Rest was electrified before the City of London. The Blyde River Hydro Power Project entails the design, engineering and commissioning of a new hydro-power station to generate renewable green energy to be supplied the surrounding tourism attractions and adjacent communities.

  • Kruger National Park & Blyde River Canyon
    “A taste of South African Splendour” – Kruger National Park & Blyde River Canyon It is time to experience one of the largest National Parks in the world and the majesty of the Blyde River Canyon Sunday 25th to the Thursday the 29th of August 2019 The Kruger National Park is the largest game reserve in South Africa. It is larger than Israel. Nearly 2 million hectares of land that stretch for 352 kilometres (20 000 square kilometres) from north to south along the Mozambique border, is given over to an almost indescribable wildlife experience. Certainly, it ranks with the best in Africa and is the flagship of the country’s national parks - rated as the ultimate safari experience. The Kruger park itself was established in 1898, following a twelve-year crusade to conserve the Lowveld wildlife by Paul Kruger, from whom the park takes its name. Lying in the heart of the Lowveld is a wildlife sanctuary like no other, its atmosphere so unique that it allows those who enter its vastness to immerse themselves in the unpredictability and endless wilderness that is the true quality of Africa. The Kruger National Park lies across the provinces of Mpumalanga and Limpopo in the north of South Africa, just south of Zimbabwe and west of Mozambique. It now forms part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park - a peace park that links Kruger National Park with game parks in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and fences are already coming down to allow game to freely roam in much the way it would have in the time before man’s intervention.
