Wednesday, September 17, 2025

In this exclusive second episode of MITV OnTheGround – Season Two, Laura Nicholson visited Peter Venn, CEO of Seriti Green at the groundbreaking Ummbila Emoyeni 900 MW hybrid renewable energy facility sub-station.

For the first time in South Africa, renewable energy is being integrated directly into coal mining operation New Denmark Colliery, marking a bold new benchmark for sustainability and reshaping the future of mining, with coal at the hear.

This pioneering initiative reflects a significant shift in how traditional mining operations can evolve to meet modern environmental and energy demands.

Through insightful conversation and on-location footage, the episode explores the strategic vision behind Ummbila Emoyeni, its potential to transform energy consumption in the mining sector, and the broader benefits of decarbonisation and industrial innovation across the continent.
