Name of the Project
Kelvin Power Station gas-fired power plants project.

Location
Kelvin Power Station, in Gauteng, South Africa.

Project Owner/s
Harith General Partners.

Project Description
Harith wants to build two gas-fired plants at the site of its coal-fired Kelvin Power Station.

The first gas-fired power plant, 60%-owned by Harith and 40% by the Public Investment Corporation, could be built on the site of an idle Kelvin unit. The second plant could then be built on another site once a power purchase agreement is concluded between Kelvin and the City of Johannesburg, Harith CEO Sipho Makhubela has said.

The proposed plants could jointly produce between 450 MW and 700 MW of power, depending on the technology used.

Harith is considering bringing in liquefied natural gas by road or rail, or buying gas from Sasol to fuel its new plants.
