Key insights
- The National Air Quality Officer granted a postponement for compliance with minimum emission standards for existing plants regarding SO2 at the Matimba Power Station. The granted limit is 3500 mg/Nm³ over a monthly averaging period, effective from 10 September 2018 to 31 March 2020.
- The requirement to comply with minimum emission standards for new plants remains in place with a limit of 3500 mg/Nm³ over a monthly averaging period from 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2025.
- The Matimba Power Station must achieve an emission limit of 500 mg/Nm³ by 01 April 2025. This requirement is based on the station's contribution to the SO2 pollution load in the Waterberg-Bojanala Priority Area and the fact that decommissioning of the station is not planned.
