LATEST REGIONAL
PROJECT UPDATE
MOROCCO
Nabrawind Technologies has signed the sale of its
first Self-erecting Nabralift tower, which will be installed
in Morocco and will become the tallest tower on the African
continent with a hub height of 144 metres. The tower, which
has a rated power of 3.6MW, lowed the installation of a full
WTG (tower, nacelle, rotor) without using large-size cranes
regardless of the final hub-height thanks to the Self-erecting
System (SES). The structure that Nabrawind will install in
Morocco will automatically become one of the tallest
on the planet. The current world record is held by a
178-metre tower installed in Germany.
SOUTH AFRICA
Technology group, Voith, is strengthening its
hydropower service portfolio for Southern Africa. The
company introduced its on-site machining and service tools
capabilities to customers, business partners and authorities
during an official launch event in Witfield, Boksburg. The new
services includes the refurbishment of plant components in
installed or independent state by linear and circular milling as
well as drilling, boring and welding. The on-site machining
equipment is stored in sea freight containers on the Voith
company premises in South Africa. From there, the
equipment is ready to be shipped on the road or on
the seaway to any location in Southern Africa.
