Company will complete early engineering prior to constructing, owning and operating hybrid power plant to offset 35% of carbon emissions<\/h4>\n

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, July 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Enernet Global Inc. (\u201cEnernet\u201d), a leading hybrid independent power producer, has commenced early engineering for a hybrid power plant for the Dasa Project currently under development by Global Atomic Corporation (\u201cGLO\u201d). Upon completion, Enernet will build, own, operate and maintain the hybrid power plant at the Dasa site in the Republic of Niger.<\/p>\n

The early engineering works include solution optimization, equipment selection, preliminary design and configuration of the Sonichar grid network connection. This agreement enables the parties to engage collaboratively and builds certainty into GLO\u2019s project budget and program. Enernet will complete the early engineering in late 2022 following which the construction phase of the power plant is scheduled to begin.<\/p>\n

Once operating, the mine will require 12\u00a0MW of consistent power and Enernet will deliver a hybrid power plant including 16\u00a0MW solar, 15\u00a0MW battery energy storage, a 16\u00a0MW back-up diesel generation plant and advanced controls integrated with grid power provided by the Niger Government owned Sonichar utility. The system will provide approximately 35% of power requirements from renewables, making Dasa one of the greenest operations in Africa, abating 27,000\u00a0tonnes of CO2<\/sub>e per annum.<\/p>\n

Enernet is focused on decarbonizing the world\u2019s supply chains and will own and operate a hybrid plant that meets GLO\u2019s energy needs while maximizing renewable generation at no capital cost to GLO. The project will be delivered by Enernet\u2019s Africa team, headquartered in Johannesburg. Enernet also has operations in Australia, Caribbean and the Philippines and works across mining, commercial and industrial, island development and remote community projects.<\/p>\n

Stephen Roman, Chairman and CEO of Global Atomic commented, \u201cOur commitment to a cleaner and greener environment is absolute. At the Dasa Project, the flagship of our uranium division, we will produce uranium for nuclear power generation and to help countries reach their zero carbon targets. We are committed to develop Dasa as the largest and highest grade uranium producer in Africa and Enernet will help us to become one of the mining industry\u2019s leaders in low emissions. Enernet\u2019s approach will help reduce our up-front capital costs, support Niger by engaging its state-owned utility Sonichar as our primary energy source, introduce solar as a legacy to the region and utilize our own generators as a backup for the health and safety of our workers and to assure our investors that we will be able to operate continuously without interruption.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are honoured to work with Global Atomic on this journey and salute their commitment to a low-carbon future. This will be one of the greenest operations in sub-Saharan Africa,\u201d said Paul Matthews, Enernet\u2019s CEO. \u201cThis is another big step by our Africa team to deliver sustainable, renewable projects and drive toward our vision to decarbonize supply chains around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Matthew Silvester, Enernet\u2019s Director of Development for Africa, added, \u201cWe are excited to begin engineering works, with start-up generation scheduled in 2022 and the hybrid plant to be delivered in 2023. This marks another major step towards green generation as a standard in Africa and brings benefits to the customer, the local community and shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n
