Projects

GenesisHexicon is aiming to develop multiple floating offshore wind projects in South Africa.

The Gagasi project

The first project we are developing is called Gagasi, and will be located offshore of Richard’s Bay in the North East of South Africa, where the waters are deep and the winds are strong and stable.

Fully developed, the farm, which has a planned capacity of 810 MW, will be able to deliver electricity to thousands of households and companies in the area. The project was initiated in 2022.

Our project map

The Gagasi project is located off the coast of Richards Bay, which has deep waters and optimal wind conditions for a floating offshore wind farm.

Our stakeholder engagement work

We aim to work closely with local, provincial, and national stakeholders to ensure that our projects are developed in a sustainable way that brings benefits to South Africa on multiple levels.

These stakeholders include the Ministry of Energy and Electricity, Ministry of Mineral and Petroleum Resources, Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment, Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd, Industrial Estates, Municipalities, Manufacturers, communities, recreational groups, non-governmental groups and all interested and affected parties.'

As our projects progress, we are planning to engage more with local communities and the supply chain, we are therefore now looking to gather information on potential suppliers who could support our work.

  • Electrical/Transmission and Civil Engineering

  • Construction management
