Our people are what makes us great

At G7 Renewable Energies (Pty) Ltd, we are very proud of our team members and our culture. The testimonies of our last two interns warmed our hearts, as it shows that we are living the G7 Values.

We were lucky to have Salizwa Camagu as an intern for 6 months. This is her testimony about working at G7:

“Thanks to Nicolas, Killian, Karen and Veronique I had the opportunity to be an Environmental intern at G7 Renewable Energies. This 6-month internship has been a game changer for me. I’ve acquired valuable skills not only about Project management, but about the Renewable energy industry as a whole, and working in a diverse team.

 “G7 Renewable Energies is honestly an immaculate team of triumphant individuals. Not only from the way they conduct thriving projects, but also by ensuring a safe and healthy environment for its team. Having been involved in various aspects of the G7 projects, where my work was trusted and navigated through Wind, Solar and Battery technologies, while becoming proficient in new software, analysis of projects, report drafting and servitude and map drawings.

“I am grateful to have been part of a steadfast team, while being exposed to this industry and being trusted to contribute to it. Thank you to the G7 team as a whole. It’s been such a graceful experience and an honour. I believe without a doubt that G7 is going to thrive and soar in this industry.”

Salizwa will continue her post-graduate studies.

Jacob Pienaar obtained a degree in civil engineering from Stellenbosch University in 2017. After a few years abroad, where he worked in the traffic and transportation engineering sector, he joined G7 first as an intern, and now on a permanent basis as Civil Engineer. Jacob had the following to say about his internship:

“I would summarise an internship with G7 as the perfect learning curve for anyone interested in the overall project life cycle of renewable energy projects, from feasibility to construction and operation. My internship offered a fresh perspective on collaboration to achieve project objectives and presented opportunities to improve hard and soft skills.

"I am lucky to be part of an amazing working culture, one which encourages personal and professional development, proactiveness and that rewards initiative. The work-environment is one I am proud to be part of. I would like to thank G7 for allowing me to liaise directly with key stakeholders. Thanks for allowing me to discover, learn and grow. A special thanks to Francois Pigeau, who continues to guide, support and align the ever-growing engineering team. I look forward to being part of this company on a permanent basis.”
