ProposalDescription: 

Nqabeni substation upgrade to accommodate two 132/22kV 20MVA transformers and associated structures including a loop-in and loop-out connections that will link Nqabeni substation to Eros/Oribi 132kV powerline.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The study area starts from Nqabeni substation running along the existing Nqabeni/Eros/Oribi 132kV powerline ending at the Eros/Oribi 132kV powerline. Both the Nqabeni substation, Nqabeni/Erosi/Oribi 132kV powerline and alternative corridors for the proposed loop-in-out powerline can be accessed from the highway N2 and local roads. The area is characterised by sugarcane plantations, grazing lands and drainage line. Mzimkhulwana River lies outside the study area. Part of the drainage line is lined by riverine bush and it falls within the study area. The study area is undulating and is steep along the drainage line. Nqabeni 132/22kV substation is currently experiencing very high loading due to a relatively high customer base and consequently there is limited capacity in the existing transformer for a number of planned electrification connections. To improve supply and provide better capacity on the network it is recommended that Nqabeni substation be upgraded to accommodate two 132/22kV 20MVA transformers and associated structures including a loop-in and loop-out connections that will link Nqabeni substation to Eros/Oribi 132kV powerline
