Assessment of the Need for the proposed Karpowership Power Plant projects

This document is a report assessing the necessity of proposed Karpowership power plant projects in South Africa. It concludes that the projects are not required to meet the country's electricity needs and are likely more expensive than alternative options.

• The assessment suggests that the South Africa Risk Mitigation Independent Power Producer procurement Programme is a more appropriate mechanism for adding capacity to the power system.
