State-owned national ports operator Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) has issued a request for information (RFI) to the private sector as it intends to procure between 50 MW and 80 MW of renewable energy across its eight commercial seaports – Richards Bay, Durban, Saldanha, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, East London, Mossel Bay and Ngqura.
TNPA recently carried out an internal audit, which indicated a need to stabilise the entity’s energy supply and costs, and reduce greenhouse-gas emissions at the eight commercial seaports.
