Anglo American and EDF Renewables agree renewable energy partnership in South Africa to form
Envusa Energy – launching 600MW of wind and solar projects in first phase

Anglo American in partnership with EDF Renewables announce their agreement to form a new jointly
owned company, Envusa Energy, to develop a regional renewable energy ecosystem ("RREE") in South
Africa.

In March 2022, the two companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding to explore the ecosystem's
development, designed to meet Anglo American's operational power requirements in South Africa and
support the resilience of the local electricity supply systems and the wider decarbonisation of energy in
the country. The RREE is also expected to catalyse economic activity in South Africa's renewable energy
sector, supporting the country's broader just energy transition.

As part of the agreement, Envusa Energy is launching a mature pipeline of more than 600 MW of wind
and solar projects in South Africa – a major first step towards the development of an ecosystem that is
expected to generate 3-5 GW of renewable energy by 2030. This first phase of Envusa Energy's
renewables projects is expected to be fully funded – including by attracting debt financing that is typical
for high quality energy infrastructure projects – and ready for construction to begin in 2023.

Envusa Energy is expected to supply Anglo American with a blend of renewable energy generated on
Anglo American's sites and renewable energy transmitted via the national grid. This energy portfolio
approach will aggregate energy from geographically dispersed renewable generating assets and allocate
this energy optimally to meet the load demand for Anglo American's sites.

Nolitha Fakude, Chair of Anglo American's Management Board in South Africa, said: "I'm delighted to
confirm our ground-breaking partnership with EDF Renewables to form Envusa Energy. This is a
significant milestone in Anglo American's global decarbonisation journey and another step forwards for
South Africa's clean energy future. We are making great strides towards our 2040 target of carbon neutral
operations, while contributing to South Africa's just energy transition through our responsible approach.
We believe that the energy transition presents a fresh opportunity for South Africa and the rest of the
region to build a clean and inclusive energy ecosystem that can create significant new economic
opportunities. I am very encouraged by our progress – affirming Anglo American's commitment to South
Africa's next phase of development towards a low-carbon future."

Tristan de Drouas, CEO at EDF Renewables in South Africa, said: "We are very pleased to be part of this
very innovative venture and look forward to bringing our global expertise in renewable energy
infrastructure development, design and delivery to Envusa Energy. This partnership with Anglo American
confirms our long-term perspectives in the country: this 600 MW first tranche of projects will be added
to the almost 1 GW that EDF Renewables will be building or operating in the country by 2023 - including
420 MW of wind projects in REIPPP Bid Window 5, whose PPAs were signed with Eskom and the DMRE
on 22 September 2022. Together, these projects further EDF Group's CAP 2030 strategy, which aims to

double our net renewable installed energy capacity worldwide (hydropower included) from 28 GW in
2015 to 60 GW by 2030."

The roll-out of the RREE will also serve as a clean energy source for the production of green hydrogen for
Anglo American's nuGen™ Zero Emission Haulage Solution (ZEHS) – a planned fleet of hydrogen-powered
ultra-class mine haul trucks – significantly reducing on-site diesel emissions towards a carbon neutral
future while also supporting the development of South Africa's Hydrogen Valley.
Through the formation of Envusa Energy, Anglo American and EDF Renewables are committed to
supporting South Africa's economic transformation and empowerment goals. The process to identify an
appropriate Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) partner for Envusa Energy is expected to begin in the
fourth quarter of 2022.

Furthermore, and in line with both companies' commitment to a just energy transition, Envusa Energy is
exploring a range of community partnership models that will enable host communities to share in the
benefits created by the development of the RREE, along its value chain. The RREE is an opportunity to
help build a more collaborative and inclusive economy that places people and the principle of shared
prosperity at the heart of development. We expect that the development of the ecosystem will generate
a range of new economic opportunities and contribute towards unlocking South Africa's growth and
development potential.
