Energy Sector Tenders in South Africa

About energy procurement

Energy-sector tenders are issued by Eskom (transmission build-out, generation refurbishment), the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy, the IPP Office (REIPPPP and battery procurement), municipal distribution utilities, and a growing number of public buildings procuring solar PV and storage under their own energy resilience programmes. The just-energy-transition pipeline in Mpumalanga adds decommissioning and repurposing tenders.

Detailed sector hub — coming soon

We're building a detailed energy-sector hub covering Eskom transmission tenders, IPP and balance-of-plant procurement, municipal embedded generation, energy efficiency retrofits, and the JET-tied programmes. We'll also cover the compliance environment — NERSA licensing, OEM accreditations, electrical contractor registration, and the safety regime for high-voltage work. Join the waitlist below.

In the meantime, the eTenders Publication Portal lists current energy-sector tenders. Eskom-specific procurement also goes through the Eskom Tender Bulletin.
