ProposalDescription: 

Eskom has proposed to shut down, dismantle and repurpose the Komati Power Station (KPS) as it reaches its end of life. The KPS is situated approximately 37km south of the town of Middelburg next to the R35 in the Mpumalanga Province of SA. It falls within the Steve Tshwete Local Municipality (STLM) and Nkangala District Municipality (NDM). The GPS coordinates for the power station are 26°05'24.77"S, 29°28'20.39"E.

Expanded_Motivation: 

KPS is a Coal Fired Thermal Power Plant with an installed capacity of 1000 MW but has only one remaining Operational Unit with a capacity of 120 MW (Unit 9), which is scheduled for shutdown at the end of October 2022. In line with South Africa’s Just Energy Transition (JET) and in support of the decarbonization of the minerals and energy sectors in a socially acceptable manner, Eskom embarked on the Just Energy Transition Project (JETP) which is to be financed by the World Bank to pilot Eskom’s JET under Eskom’s 2035 Strategy and Road Map by the decommissioning and repurposing of KPS.
