  • Namane Generation (Pty) Ltd submitted a responding statement on 26 April 2017 to counter an appeal filed by the Centre for Environmental Rights (CER) on 4 April 2017. The appeal concerned the environmental authorisation for the Namane Generation IPP and associated infrastructure, identified by DEA reference # 14/12/16/3/3/3/210 and NEAS reference # DEA/EIA/0000202/2015.
  • The responding statement aims to address misconceptions regarding the project's environmental impacts, specifically referencing specialist assessments within the Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIR) produced by Digby Wells and Associates (South Africa) (Pty) Ltd.
  • Namane Generation requests that the Minister set aside the CER appeal and not uphold it. However, if the fourth ground of appeal is upheld, the company petitions the Minister to adjourn the de novo appeal to allow for the submission of a climate change impact study, citing the High Court judgment in Earthlife Africa Johannesburg/the Minister of Environmental Affairs & Others [2017] JOL 37526 (GP) (the Thabametsi case).
