The Industrial Gas Users Association of Southern Africa (IGUA-SA) has welcomed the attention that South Africa’s impending “gas cliff” is finally enjoying from government through Electricity and Energy Minister Dr Kgosientsho Ramokgopa. The body is cautioning, however, against conflating the recent signing of an agreement between Eskom and Sasol to jointly explore ways to shore-up demand to facilitate the importation of liquefied natural gas (LNG), which Ramokgopa attended, with the “national strategy” or “country plan” required to avert the crisis.
