Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment Minister Barbara Creecy has published an amendment of certain requirements for an application for environmental authorisation for a renewable energy facility, in the Government Gazette of December 4.

The amendment requires that a proponent request and obtain a consent letter from State-owned utility Eskom, or its successor, which confirms that the proposed layout of the facility will not unnecessarily obstruct access to the transmission or distribution infrastructure.

The amendment is necessary to ensure the full potential of the investment into electricity infrastructure can be realised, the department says.

A copy of the Government Gazette can be obtained at: https://www.dffe.gov.za/sites/default/files/legislations/nema_ea.renewableenergyfacility_g49815gon4143.pdf.
