Description

The project involves the development of gas-to-power infrastructure at Richards Bay, South Africa. It aims to address the country's gas supply gap by building power plants supported by gas supply and infrastructure. The project faces delays due to misaligned policy frameworks and lack of coordinated execution, with preferred bidders expected to be appointed by mid-2027, financial close by late 2028, and construction starting in 2029. Commissioning could be delayed to between 2032 and 2034 due to turbine delivery delays and global supply constraints.
