Independent Power Generation One-day Conference
17 March 2016
Glenhove Conference Centre, Rosebank, Johannesburg
POWER GENERATION FROM COAL BY INDEPENDENT POWER
PRODUCERS (IPPs) IN SOUTH AFRICA
The promulgated Policy Adjusted scenario of theIntegrated Resource Plan (IRP) 2010for electricity capacity planning to 2030 included 6 250 MW of new coal capacity. So far the coal baseload IPP procurement programme aims to procure 2500 MW of electricity from coal-fired power stations, with individual bids capped at 600 MW per project. The programme is designed to contribute to socio-economic development and sustainable growth, and to start and stimulate the participation of independent power producers in the baseload energy generation capacity industry in South Africa. Most of the plants are likely to use fluidised bed technology.
THE CONFERENCE WILL FOCUS ON:
o The South African IPP programme, with a focus on coal base load
o Overview of coal resources for IPPs – new coal and discards
o Unique qualities and combustion characteristics of Southern African coals
o Cradle-to-grave concepts in designing IPPs with relevant environmental aspects
o Experiences in fluidised bed combustion (FBC) for power generation IPP intentions and potential projects
o The role of Eskom in future electricity generation from coal
o The implications of COP21 for South Africa’s energy plans, with particular focus on coal and
current and future environmental limits
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
o Government legislators and policy makers; parastatals
o Producers, marketers, traders of coal and gas (conventional and unconventional - UCG/CBM/CMM)
o Power, process and heat generation managers, engineers and technologists
o Metallurgical ore processing, reduction and smelting managers, engineers and technologists
o Boiler, kiln, furnace and gasifier manufacturers and operators
o Suppliers of ancillary equipment including on-line analyses, mills, crushers, ash handling and emissions monitors
o Traders and marketers of coal and gas (conventional and UG): local, regional and export
o Environmental scientists and engineers
o Technologists, consultants, researchers and academics
