Recently, South Africa's Department of Energy released an updated draft
Integrated Resource Plan (IRP).
The plan aims to add 5,670 MW of photovoltaic capacity and 8,100 MW of wind capacity
by 2030.
South Africa plans to add significant renewable energy capacity by 2030
Under the plan, South Africa will have 11,442 MW of wind capacity in 2030, accounting for 15% of the installed capacity mix, while photovoltaics will account for 10%, reaching 7,958 MW of capacity
.
It also includes 600 MW of concentrated solar capacity, accounting for 1%, and 2912 MW of pumped storage capacity, accounting for 4%.
South Africa is expected to add 2,500 MW of hydropower
by 2030.
According to a statement from the Department of Energy, coal will account for the largest share of 46% of the capacity mix and will still contribute more than 65% of energy production
.
IRP expects to add 1,000 MW of coal power generation capacity and 8,100 MW of natural gas capacity
by 2030.
The IRP program provides power infrastructure programs designed to ensure security of supply while minimizing supply costs, water usage and environmental impact
, the statement said.
The statement also said closer monitoring of the IRP update assumptions through the medium-term system adequacy outlook submitted annually by South Africa's national power Eskom to NERSA (South Africa's National Energy Regulator), will ensure that the current supply-demand balance can be met, implementation can be accelerated or decelerated if necessary, and plans can even be modified in a timely manner
.
South Africa's first IRP was issued in March 2011, and the Department of Energy initiated a process
to review and update the plan in 2015.
The updated IRP will now go through a 60-day review period
