that baseload energy generation capacity is needed to contribute towards energy security, including 2500 megawatts (MW) to be generated from Coal, which is in accordance with the capacity allocated to “Coal (PF,.FBC, Imports)”, under the heading "New build", for the years 2014 to 2024, in Table 3 of the Integrated Resource Plan for Electricity 2010-2030 (published as GN 400 of 06 May 2011 in Government Gazette No. 34263) ("IRP 2010-2030");
that energy generation capacity is needed to contribute towards energy security, including 800 megawatts (MW) to be generated, from Industrial Cogeneration energy sources (which may include amongst others, one or more of the following: biomass; industrial wastes and Combined Heat and Power), which represents part of the Cogeneration supply side options identified in Table 1 of Annexure E of the Integrated Resource Plan for Electricity 2010- 2030 (published as GN 400 of 06 May 2011 in Government Gazette No. 34263) ("IRP 2010-2030") for reducing the medium term supply-demand shortfall which was assessed at that point to be approximately 9 terawatt hours or 1000 MW as referred to in paragraph 2 on page 62 of Annexure E of the IRP 2010-2030;
