Nugeneration (Pty) Ltd – Electrical Engineers installs, operates and maintains and remotely monitors Solar PV installations for commercial and industrial properties.
We have a combined 70 years of experience in Electrical Engineering, Project Management, Utility Management and Electricity Retail. Nugeneration Electrical Engineers specialises in electrical master planning and system analysis locally and into Africa.
We use the DigSilent simulation software for all our system analyses and protection coordination studies. Nugeneration also does testing of equipment on electrical networks. We provide these services to the mining sector, municipalities and Eskom.
Nugeneration was founded by Roelf Loots in 2008. He has 20 years’ experience in high and medium voltage transmission and distribution networks. During this period he was actively involved as Consulting Engineer in power system planning and compilation of master plans for the Transmission system for Tshwane Electricity. In 2002 he was appointed as Managing Engineer for the Tshwane Transmission System until 2007. From 1999 to 2009 he lectured part-time in various subjects at the University of Pretoria in electrical engineering.

Engineering excellence in renewable energy solutions for the commercial and industrial sector
Nugeneration has from 2016 executed numerous rooftop PV Solar projects from household off-grid solutions to large 1283kWp grid-tied projects.
We do all designs inhouse on PVSol software and do the project management including the engineering, procurement and
contract management (EPC).
Utilities sometimes need help with doing cost of supply and tariff studies. Nugeneration can also help in setting up / updating their asset registers.
It is also important for utilities to manage maintenance schedules, do technical audits and perform condition monitoring on electrical system components.
The main focus in our business is performing system studies as part of simulations and master planning on electrical systems.
Load flow and fault level analyses are done to simulate electrical systems. We also do protection coordination studies for municipalities and mines.
