Eskom needs to triple grid capacity in a decade
Eskom, South Africa’s power utility, needs to triple its grid capacity within the next decade at a cost of over R100 billion to accommodate new-generation projects and put an end to load-shedding.
Eskom grid rules unlawful, unreasonable, irrational – CEO
G7 Renewable Energies, a South African power-project developer, is seeking to block Eskom’s new rules governing the connection of plants to the national electricity grid.
The developer argues that the rules, known as Interim Grid Capacity Allocation Rules (IGCA), are flawed and will hinder the addition of more generation capacity.
