Redstone Solar Thermal Power Plant South Africa

You’ve probably heard about solar farms, but the Redstone Solar Thermal Power Plant in South Africa’s Northern Cape isn’t your typical photovoltaic setup. Commissioned in 2023 as part of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP), this 100MW concentrated solar power (CSP) facility uses 12 hours of thermal storage – enough to power 200,000 homes after sunset. Now, why should that matter to a country still getting 80% of its electricity from coal?
