MARYDALE ENERFUSION PARK

Solinzi Power (Pty) Ltd is aiming to become a frontrunner in South Africa's clean energy revolution with the establishment of the Marydale Enerfusion Park. The proposed park will focus on the production of Hydrogen and Ammonia using renewable energy resources (wind, solar and battery).

 

The Motswedi Green Hydrogen and Green Ammonia Plant, is strategically located within the proposed Enerfusion Park to be located 9km east of the town of Marydale in the Northern Cape Province.

 

The Enerfusion park goes beyond the conventional hybrid project (wind, solar and battery); the power generated will be utilized/consumed onsite to power onsite production of Hydrogen and onsite production of Ammonia. The hydrogen produced will be consumed /used onsite to produce Ammonia. This is key to ensuring a low production cost of Ammonia.

 

The Motswedi Hydrogen and Ammonia Plant will consume a majority of the power generated onsite, and excess power will be dedicated to the Battery Storage system and the remainder exported to customers in the network.

Job Creation    -   15,000+ direct/indirect jobs

Clean energy, circular economics, and community upliftment

1. Triple-Integration Framework: Energy, Agriculture & Circular Economics

​

  • Renewable-Powered Ammonia Production: Combines 1.26 GW of onsite/offsite wind/solar with battery storage to produce 900,000 tonnes/year of low-cost green ammonia – displacing fossil-fuel-dependent imports.

  • Agricultural Synergy: Directly boosts farm productivity via affordable green fertilizers (through the Green Ammonia Bridge Programme) and creates new revenue streams for farmers (via the Landowner Share Programme).

  • Circular Economy: Converts byproducts (e.g., oxygen, nitrogen-rich effluents) into resources for water treatment, medical use, and organic fertilizers – achieving zero waste.

2. Triple-Integration Framework: Energy, Agriculture & Circular Economics

​

  • Alleviates Grid Congestion: Consumes 75% of power onsite (zero grid injection), while sourcing 25% from curtailed IPPs – acting as a "pressure valve" for Eskom’s strained transmission network.

  • Unlocks Stranded Renewables: Partners with IPPs facing curtailment (e.g., Helios/Konos substations), monetizing wasted clean energy and enabling future RE growth.

  • No New Grid Load: Avoids exacerbating congestion (aligned with Eskom’s GCCA 2025 goals).

3. Strategic Location in Upington REDZ: Regulatory & Logistics Advantages

​

  • Expedited Development: Benefits from streamlined permitting, pre-approved environmental assessments, and 50% faster approvals in the Renewable Energy Development Zone.

  • Export-Ready Infrastructure: Proximity to N10/R383 highways, rail (<1 km), and ports (Boegoebaai, Coega) enables cost-competitive shipping to Atlantic/Pacific basins – 25–40% cheaper than Oman to Rotterdam.

  • Resource Optimization: Leverages world-class solar/wind resources (rivalling Chile/Australia) and onsite water access.

4. Socio-Economic Catalyst & Climate Leadership

  • Job Creation & Inclusion: Generates 15,000+ jobs (40% for women/youth) and prioritizes BBBEE Level 1 compliance (51% Black ownership, 30% women-owned suppliers).

  • Net-Zero Acceleration: Cuts 6 million tonnes/year of COâ‚‚ by displacing grey ammonia imports and decarbonizing agriculture/mining – supporting SA’s 2050 net-zero target.

  • Just Energy Transition Model: Embeds community equity (via project co-ownership) and skills development, aligning with UN SDGs and SA’s Hydrogen Society Roadmap.
