Deal: Bid for Phase 1 of South Africa's Independent Power Producers (IPP) Procurement Programme.

Value: No set dollar figure, however there is close to 4000MW of renewable projects to bid for, which is in the billions.

Key players: Damian McNair, head of finance & projects in Australia, led the DLA Piper team.

Deal significance: The South African Government has committed to generating 42 per cent of all new electricity from renewable energy resources over the next 20 years; an aggressive target by international standards.
