Project overview
About this development
The construction of the Marble Hall / Wolwekraal substation will alleviate the low voltage problems experienced by the electricity distribution networks around the Marble Hall / Wolwekraal area and provide 400kV at Marble Hall. The new substation will remove excess load from the Simplon substation and will create a source for connecting new loads in the area. The substation will provide a point to connect the network to the Waterberg Generation network. The new substation will ensure that there is power for the Steelpoort Pumped Storage Scheme to pump water to the upper dam during pumping condition. The five alternatives are within the Limpopo Province. These alternatives are all located within Greater Sekhukhune District Municipality. Alternative sites 1 to 4 are located on farm Loskop Noord 12 JS (Portions 983/12; 190/12; 192/12 and 688/12) in Greater Marble Hall Local Municipality, Ward 5. Alternative site 5 is located on Farm Scherp Arabie 743 KS portion 27/743 in Greater Marble Hall Local Municipality Ward 6.
