Socio-Economic Community Development
Community development is a core part of all EDF power solutions projects, with the developments creating numerous jobs and resulting in key socio-economic development initiatives in the communities they are situated in. This is done under the Grassroots Youth Development (GYD) programme.
Depending on the performance of EDF power solutions’ 3 operational wind farms in the Eastern Cape, GYD spends approximately R6 million per year on Socio-Economic Development (SED) projects. View our Communities page for a glimpse of some of the key SED projects that have received funding from the GYD programme.
