  • INVESTOR FACT SHEET 4. Blyde River Hydro Power Project
    INVESTOR FACT SHEET 4. Blyde River Hydro Power Project A. PROJECT SECTOR: Renewable Energy I. INTRODUCTION The Blyde River (Happy River) or Motlatse River, is a river in Mpumalanga Province South Africa. It flows north through the steep-sided valleys and ravines of the Mpumalanga Drakensberg (Dragon Mountains), before it enters the Lowveld Escapement – one of Africa’s prime wildlife and game reserves destinations. The Blyde River Hydro Power Project is a small Hydo-Electric Project involving the re-engineering and re-establishment of an existing hydro-electric power plant. II. LOCATION South Africa – Mpumalanga Province – Thaba Chweu Municipality III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION This renewable energy project is situated in the environmentally sensitive Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve of Mpumalanga Province. This area attracts over one million tourists a year to the natural wonder of the surrounding Bourke’s Luck Potholes, Gods Window, the Blyde River Canyon and the world famous Kruger National Park. Mpumalanga Province is an attractive Green Energy investment destination in support of the tourism infrastructure and local communities. The existing but non-operational Belvedere Hydro-Electric Power Plant was commissioned in 1911 to supply power to the historic gold mining town of Pilgrim’s Rest. This 2,000 Kw power station was at its time the largest hydro-electric power station in the Southern Hemisphere and Pilgrim’s Rest was electrified before the City of London. The Blyde River Hydro Power Project entails the design, engineering and commissioning of a new hydro-power station to generate renewable green energy to be supplied the surrounding tourism attractions and adjacent communities.

  • South Africa Travel Guide 2017
    South Africa Travel Guide 2017 1 From the Editor... After a few failed attempts at collecting travel information about South Africa, I decided it would be a great idea to publish my own South Africa Travel Guide. It has taken me about 3 years to assemble this valuable publication (in between extra hours in the CLO Office and publishing JJ’s and Classifieds, and more Classi- fieds, and more JJ’s). Realistically, I thought I would lose my mind if I heard, “I will send over travel brochures ‘just now’” one more time... It has been a lot of work, but being in the CLO Office is the reason that I started this venture in the first place. My favorite part of working in the CLO Office is helping people who are searching for travel information. There is no greater reward as the Editor of the Jacaranda Journal, than to hear that one of my readers has booked a vacation or some sort of adventure because of a travel story or advice from our office. Travelling means taking a break from everyday routines and just enjoying life. I personally believe that there is so much benefit to travel, which is why I am hoping this Guide entices you to travel more. Travel gives us better perspective, it makes us more adaptable and adventurous, and it just makes people happy. We are in a unique position, living life in the Foreign Service, and one of the greatest benefits is seeing the world. We get the opportunity to see places we would never have dreamed of and even better, we get to share them sometimes with friends and family.

  • Towards Improving the Assessment and Implementation of the Reserve
    Towards improving the assessment and implementation of the Reserve: Real-time assessment and implementation of the Ecological Reserve Final report WRC project K8/881/2 March 2011 Sharon Pollard1 Stephen Mallory2 Edward Riddell3 Tendai Sawunyama2 1 Association for Water & Rural Development (AWARD) 2 Water for Africa (IWR Water Resources) 3 University of KwaZulu-Natal Water Research Commission Executive Summary When the Olifants River in north-east South Africa ceased flowing in 2005, widespread calls were made for an integrated focus on all of the easterly-flowing rivers of the lowveld of South Africa. These are the Luvuvhu, Letaba, Olifants, Sabie-Sand, Crocodile and Komati Rivers in Water Management Areas 2,4 and 5. Most of these rivers appeared to be deteriorating in terms of water quantity and quality despite the 1998 National Water Act (NWA). As most of the rivers flow through Kruger National Park (KNP) and all of them form part of international systems the implications of their degradation were profound and of international significance (Pollard and du Toit 2010). The aims of this study were to assess the state of compliance with the Ecological Reserve (ER) – as a benchmark for sustainability - in these rivers and some of their tributaries. It also explored the problems associated with an assessment of compliance. In short these include the lack of planning and integration of ER determination methods with operations and the difficulties associated with real-time predictions of ER requirements. These factors severely constrain planning, monitoring and the management action to mitigate non-compliance. In South Africa, the ER is defined as a function of the natural flow which, because the natural flow in a system is not known at any point in time, is creating problems with real-time implementation.
