COMMENTS ON POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF PROPOSED NEW COAL GENERATION UNDER THE SOUTH AFRICA 2019 INTEGRATED RESOURCE PLAN
This report by Dr. Ranajit Sahu evaluates the technical and environmental feasibility of adding 1,500 MW of new coal generation as proposed in South Africa's 2019 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The author argues that 'clean coal' is a myth, asserting that any new capacity will inevitably cause significant air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, regardless of the high-efficiency, low-emission (HELE) technologies employed.
