  • SA already has requisite skills base to adopt IGCC technology

    February 1, 2015 Editor Comments Off on SA already has requisite skills base to adopt IGCC technology

    South Africa is, in key respects, an ideal country to deploy the latest generation Integrated (coal) Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) technology for electricity generation. This is the view of Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS) Africa. “This technology needs sufficiently trained people, so there needs to be a skills base before it can be adopted,” explains MHPS Africa Chief Technology Officer Dietmar Breuer. “In South Africa, because of the [South African coal-to-petrol petrochemical group] Sasol background, the technology and skills requirements are already covered. There is very good knowledge in the base technology. South Africa is, from our point of view, the ideal country in Africa for IGCC. The next in line would be the directly adjacent countries, which can easily access South African expertise.”
