Summary

Moshesh Cogeneration, a special purpose vehicle owned by Moshesh Partners and backed by Rand Merchant Bank, has selected Clarke Energy to deliver a full turnkey CHP facility and microgrid controller to Danone. The microgrid project will support Danone’s global commitment to Net Zero by 2050, as well as the demand for a resilient local energy solution during the current supply challenges in South Africa.
 
Danone’s dairy product manufacturing facility in Boksburg, Gauteng runs 24/7, 365 days a year and produces a variety of dairy products like Nutriday yoghurt and Ultramel custard. In 2023 Danone reframed its sustainability goals under the Impact Journey with three key pillars, namely Health, Nature and People. Under the nature pillar the company has a clear roadmap to reach Net Zero by 2050 and this microgrid project will help to transition the facility and be key in reaching that goal.
