The project is expected to generate about 319 GWh of green electricity annually and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 262,000 tons per year. The project cost about $136 million (2 billion rand). Building a 100-MW power plant is a huge undertaking that requires a large scale of money and expertise.
There are different types of power plants that can generate 100 MW of electricity, such as coal-fired, gas-fired, nuclear, hydroelectric, solar, wind, biomass, or geothermal. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of cost, reliability, environmental impact, and social acceptability.
These expenses may include water consumption, waste and wastewater discharge, chemicals such as selective catalytic reduction ammonia, and consumables including lubricants and calibration gas. Because these costs are generation dependent, the values are levelized by the cost per unit of energy generation and presented in $/MWh.
The AC-coupled system assumes a DC/AC ratio of 1.4, resulting in a DC size of 210 MW. AC-coupled systems are typically built at a higher DC/AC ratio than standalone PV to maximize the amount of available energy to charge the battery energy storage system (BESS) without sacrificing PV output while the BESS is charging or idle.
To accurately reflect the changing cost of new electric power generators in the Annual Energy Outlook 2025 (AEO2025), EIA commissioned Sargent & Lundy (S&L) to evaluate the overnight capital cost
