Presidential Climate Commission to table interim report on the Komati Power Station decommissioning and repurposing process to stakeholders on Friday
The Presidential Climate Commission (PCC) will on Friday 27 October 2023, host a multistakeholder community consultation in the Nkangala District and Tshwete Municipality to consider and discuss its Interim Report and Recommendation on the Komati Power Station Decommission and Repurposing
process.
The report follows initial submissions and an oversight visit conducted by the Commission on the 7 July this year. The PCC visited the Eskom Komati Power Station earlier this year with the intention to understand the process of decommissioning and repurposing and make recommendations on the
lessons learnt from the process.
The consultation on Friday follows from the decision of the 11th commission’s quarterly meeting held on the 29th of September, to go back and consult with various stakeholders about the undergoing process of decommissioning and repurposing the Komati Power Station and to enrich and address gaps on the PCC’s interim report and the associated recommendations.

Venue: Jesus Our Glory – Blinkpan Village, near Komati
Date: 27 October 2023
