This 12MW unit required an investment of $14 million, financed by a share issue. It will eventually provide 27% of Blanket’s energy needs and reduce the mine’s dependence on the national grid of the Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority (ZESA), with which it has a supply contract. The aim also is to reduce the use of the diesel-intensive emergency generator.
