Clean Power, Delivered Differently
South Africa’s energy landscape is changing—fast. Businesses are no longer bound to Eskom for their electricity. Through mechanisms like energy wheeling and embedded generation, companies can now access clean power directly from producers like Lupfumo Energy, often at lower and more stable prices.
So, what do these terms mean?
Energy wheeling allows renewable power generated in one location to be transferred across the national grid and delivered to a consumer elsewhere. For example, a solar farm in Limpopo can “wheel” electricity to a factory in Gauteng. You stay connected to the grid, but your energy bill reflects clean, contracted power—often with cost savings.
Embedded generation, on the other hand, refers to power produced and consumed on the same site, or within a localised grid. This is ideal for estates, SEZs, and business parks looking to secure direct, on-site generation that bypasses national bottlenecks.
With Lupfumo Energy as your licensed energy trader, you can take advantage of both models. Whether you need a solar plant on your property or want to buy green power from ours, we’ll help you navigate the regulations, structure the contract, and make clean energy part of your competitive strategy.
