An announcement from Chariot Oil & Gas ( (GB:CHAR) ) is now available.

Chariot Limited has successfully secured significant financing and a strategic equity partnership to fund its investment in two wind generation projects, Zen and Bergriver, in South Africa. These projects are led by Acciona Energia, with construction set to begin soon. Chariot has established a new subsidiary, Chariot Generation and Trading Pty Limited, which holds a 24% stake in the projects and a 34% economic interest in the South African electricity trading platform, Etana.
