THE Coega Development Corporation has launched an expression of interest for the development and operation of a gas-fired power plant at the Coega Industrial Development Zone.

The CDC said the combined cycle gas turbine power plant project, which would provide up to 2400 megawatts, would complement other national power generation programmes.

"It is intended that the project will provide an opportunity for Independent Power Producers," the CDC said.

According to CDC manager of business development Khwezi Tiya, the project is one of the transformational projects "like the planned oil refinery and Nelson Mandela Bay Logistics Park, because of the way in which it will transform the landscape of IDZ". - Sapa
