OUR DEVELOPMENT APPROACH
We use our in-house developed systematic process to identify opportunities/site locations for ideal renewable energy developments.
Complete necessary pre-feasibility checks and studies to ensure we develop the best-positioned sites.
Secure feasible opportunities for development.
Deliver end-to-end site development to ensure project and regulatory compliance.
Manage the creation of the necessary project SPVs and secure various required land rights.
Manage all aspects to achieve a fully permitted site, including required studies and regulatory approvals.
The key to successful projects lies in overcoming the most difficult hurdles where all the stakeholders benefit.
By applying our expertise and experience, we have a track record of finding innovative solutions to development challenges that consider the interests of all the shareholders to find win-win solutions.

FOUNDED 2012
We founded VERONIVA early in 2012, after selling our first company to an international Independent Power Producer, to continue our pioneering journey in renewable energy development in South Africa. Today, we are a leading renewable energy development company focusing on utility-scale solar energy and battery storage projects.
SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOPED
We have successfully developed (from site identification to fully permitted) projects of more than 1400MW and have a project pipeline of future potential projects of more than 450MW. As a result, we are well-positioned to help move South Africa into the much needed energy transition.
A FIRST FOR SOUTH AFRICA
Under the Department of Energy’s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP) and Risk Mitigation Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (RMIPPPP), 813MW of Solar PV and 1.5GWh of Battery Storage, across ten project sites developed by Veroniva have been approved. These projects, once completed, will provide enough electricity to power about 375,000 South African households. The Kenhardt projects approved under the RMIPPPP was inaugurated in April 2024 and is
one of the largest solar PV and battery storage facilities in the world.
