Umthuthukisi wezimbiwa ezimbonini wase-Australia i-Syrah Resources usayine isivumelwano nenkampani engaphansi kwe-Afrika yomthuthukisi wamandla waseBrithani i-Solarcentury ukuze kusetshenziswe iphrojekthi ye-solar-plus-storage embonini yayo ye-Balama graphite e-Mozambique, ngokusho kwemibiko yabezindaba yangaphandle.
IMemorandamu Yokusebenzisana esayiniwe (i-MoU) ichaza imigomo nemibandela lapho izinhlangothi zombili zizosingatha khona ukuklama, ukuxhaswa ngezimali, ukwakhiwa kanye nokusebenza kwephrojekthi.
Lolu hlelo ludinga ukuthi kutshalwe ipaki yelanga enamandla afakiwe angu-11.2MW kanye nesistimu yokugcina amabhethri enamandla afakiwe angu-8.5MW, ngokusekelwe ekwakhiweni kokugcina.Iphrojekthi ye-solar-plus-storage izosebenza ngokuhambisana nesikhungo sokuphehla ugesi kadizili ongu-15MW esisebenza esizeni emayini yemvelo yegraphite kanye nesikhungo sokucubungula.
U-Shaun Verner, uMphathi-Jikelele kanye no-CEO we-Syrah, uthe: "Ukusebenzisa le phrojekthi yokugcina amandla elanga + kuzonciphisa izindleko zokusebenza embonini ye-Balama graphite futhi kuzoqinisa nakakhulu iziqinisekiso ze-ESG zokuhlinzekwa kwayo kwe-graphite yemvelo, kanye nesikhungo sethu e-Vida, Louisiana, USA.ukunikezwa kwesikhathi esizayo kwephrojekthi ye-anode yebhethri ehlanganiswe mpo ye-Lia.”
Ngokusho kwedatha yenhlolovo ye-International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), umthamo ofakiwe wezikhungo zikagesi welanga eMozambique awuphezulu, kuphela u-55MW ekupheleni kuka-2019. Naphezu kokuqubuka kwalesi sifo, ukuthuthukiswa nokwakhiwa kwayo kusaqhubeka.
Isibonelo, umkhiqizi ozimele waseFrance u-Neoen waqala ukwakha iphrojekthi kagesi welanga engu-41MW esifundazweni sase-Mozambique sase-Cabo Delgado ngo-Okthoba 2020. Uma isiqediwe, izoba isikhungo esikhulu kunazo zonke sokuphehla ugesi welanga e-Mozambique.
Ngaleso sikhathi, uMnyango Wezezimbiwa waseMozambique waqala ukubhida ngo-Okthoba 2020 kumaphrojekthi amathathu kagesi welanga anamandla afakiwe angama-40MW.I-Electricity National de Mozambique (EDM) izothenga ugesi kumaphrojekthi amathathu ngemva kokuba isiqalile ukusebenza.
