The gas discoveries off South Africa’s coast could be ‘game changers’

However, energy demand in the country has been growing at a much faster rate than can be supplied.

This has necessitated a development of the country’s energy pool and capacity, and if the early estimates of the recent Brulpadda and Luiperd discoveries are accurate, the gas produced from Brulpadda and Luiperd would be sufficient to meet more than half of the country’s current energy demands.

High risk of load-shedding.

You mean like Ted Bloom?
Looks unit 2 of Koeberg is slowly ramping up, Monday just over 1GW from Nuclear. Normally 800 to 900MW
