What is Energy Wheeling? 


Energy wheeling gives your business access to clean, competitively priced electricity through the grid.

Etana partners with independent power producers (IPPs) to source renewable energy, from wind and solar farms located across South Africa.

You sign a power purchase agreement with Etana to cover a high percentage of your electricity usage.

You continue to get all your energy from the grid. Every month, you pay Etana for the renewable energy that you consume, and Eskom or your municipality for the remainder of the electricity consumption, plus a "wheeling" fee to use the grid. 

This model enables IPPs to build their wind and solar projects where those resources are most abundant, ensuring you get access to the most cost-effective clean electricity possible, without any hassle or capex investment. 

The result? We help you reduce your carbon footprint and your operating costs, and more renewable energy generation gets added to our grid. It's a win-win-win for your business, the country and the planet.
