GREENER GOLD

GREENER GOLD: DRDGOLD’s R2.8-billion Tshedza hybrid electricity project in Ekurhuleni, comprising over 133 000 solar panels and 43 batteries, is providing the Ergo gold tailings retreatment operation with decarbonised, reliable and cost effective power. The Ergo plant requires stable electricity to treat gold-bearing slurry that comes into the Brakpan facility from as far afield as Soccer City, some 50 km away.
