Energy Solutions for a Changing World
Phelan Energy, a subsidiary of the Phelan Green Group, brings decades of renewable energy expertise and a successful track record in developing utility-scale Solar PV, Wind and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects that create lasting economic value and power the transition to a lower-carbon future.
Three Technologies. One Energy Strategy
Solar
Through our renewable operations, the Phelan Green Group has become a driving force in solar innovation, with an installed capacity exceeding 500MWp. Our journey in South Africa began in 2014 with the country’s largest REIPP tender of 94MW.
In 2016, our subsidiary Solar Capital completed the Southern Hemisphere’s largest solar farm, delivering 175MW of green energy.
Our strategy is to build a robust landbank, construct efficient and scalable plants at competitive costs, and secure sustainable financing, supported by our balance sheet. With expert teams leading each project, we remain focused on producing renewable energy at the lowest possible cost, making solar central to the global clean energy transition.
Wind
Phelan Green Group is an investor in Wind production and is now expanding this sector as a vital contributor to their required renewable energy mix. By pairing technology with environmental care, we design and deliver large-scale wind projects that provide reliable, cost-effective electricity.
Our approach balances efficiency with sustainability, ensuring every wind farm operates to the highest standards of performance while minimising impact on the environment.
As the world pursues decarbonisation, wind energy will be essential to building resilience in the global power supply. At Phelan Green Group, we are harnessing nature’s strength to support this transition, creating projects that not only produce clean energy but also leave lasting value for communities and generations to come.
BESS
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) complete the renewable energy cycle, ensuring solar and wind can deliver power consistently and competitively. Over the past decade, costs of both batteries and solar panels have dropped by more than 90%, unlocking new opportunities for large-scale adoption.
At Phelan Green Group, we develop advanced BESS solutions that deliver reliability, performance, and flexibility. By integrating storage into renewable projects, we enable energy to be supplied when demand is highest, empowering communities and industries to depend fully on clean power.
Integrated Renewable Ecosystems
Renewable Electricity
Solar PV and Wind generate clean electricity. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) store excess energy and supply power when renewable generation changes. Together, they provide a stable source of renewable electricity.
Green Hydrogen
Renewable electricity powers electrolysers that split water into hydrogen and oxygen. The result is green hydrogen produced without fossil fuels. It is the foundation for a new generation of low-carbon fuels.
eMethanol & eSAF
Green hydrogen is combined with captured carbon to produce eMethanol and eSAF, using Honeywell UOP's Fischer Tropsch Unicracking™ process technology. These synthetic fuels can replace conventional fossil fuels in industries where direct electrification is difficult, including aviation and shipping.
Industrial Decarbonisation & Energy Security
Renewable electricity, green hydrogen and eFuels provide practical alternatives to fossil fuels for industries that are difficult to electrify. Producing these clean energy sources locally helps reduce emissions and dependence on imported fossil fuels, strengthening long-term energy security.
