OptiPower Projects was initiated and registered in 2001 by the current CEO Andre Swart.
Motivation to enter the industry was due to the lack of Broad-based Black Economic Empowered Companies within the Western Cape, and to contribute and pass
the experience gained from decades of transmission line related project participation within ABB South Africa. The company started off with the installation of
Overhead and underground Fibre Optics cables and advanced to turn-key construction of Overhead Transmission Lines, Substations, and Renewable
Energy Infrastructure.
OptiPower also achieved the “Transmission” and “Distribution” Broad-based Black Economic Status in its highest form within South Africa. Eskom
Megawatt Park as a Large Measured Enterprise, Vendor No: 11045781, incorporating the City of Cape Town and Western Cape Provincial Government,
Registration No: OPTI004TRW, As well as eThekwini (Durban) and many various other municipalities.
The aspiration and drive to provide a Quality turn-key solution to all aspects within the High, Medium and Low voltage Powerline, Substation, Fibre Optic networks
and renewable energy Infrastructure industry, is a commitment enforced by OptiPower’s top management.
The company is committed to uplifting previously disadvantaged communities and firmly believes in the continuous training of its whole workforce, hence investing
generously by embracing the local country empowerment initiatives. All the permanent Site Personnel are trained in many statutory requirements such as
Operating Regulations for High Voltage systems, Occupational Health and Safety certification to enable them to work to the Safety Standards that empowers the
individuals as authorized persons on Substations, Overhead Powerlines and Fibre Optics.
Optipower also have its own in-house Engineering department that offers Assistance in design and specialized construction solutions to its customers.
