South African mining group Sibanye-Stillwater has agreed to buy power from the 89MW Castle wind farm in South Africa's Northern Cape region.

Castle wind farm is being developed by a consortium including African Infrastructure Investment Managers, African Clean Energy Developments and Reatile Renewables. The 15-year power purchase agreement with Sibanye-Stillwater has enabled the group to take the project to financial close.

Construction is due to start next month and commissioning is scheduled for early 2025.
