Energy, projects and transactions, handled end to end.
SASTA Consulting is a Johannesburg business consultancy. We develop renewable energy projects, run them to completion, and advise the people funding and buying them.
A credible partner, from the first conversation to close-out.
SASTA Consulting is a holistic business consultancy operating within the legal framework of South Africa, registered in 2021 to offer turn-key business solutions across three connected disciplines.
We leverage our professional skills and the relationships forged over forty years of collective experience in business, and we have engaged in a wide range of commercial transactions. Our clients come to us when a project needs to move from an idea on paper to something built, financed and running.
We have built a reputation as a credible partner to work with in all our endeavours.
