The Tshepong project is connected directly to Eskom’s Distribution System and “wheels” energy to Harmony’s point of supply, where Eskom credits them for the energy supplied by the project. The Tshepong project is the first project financed “wheeling” project in South Africa.

The Eland and Nyala projects connect directly to Harmony’s electrical system “(behind the meter”).
