Kibo Gauteng Thermal Power Station is a planned 2.7 megawatts (3,600 hp) thermal power station in South Africa. The power station is under development by a joint venture company called Sustineri Energy, co-owned by Kibo Energy, an Irish IPP and Industrial Green Energy Solutions (IGES) of South Africa. The energy generated here will be sold directly to a developer of industrial parks, based in Gauteng, South Africa, under a 10-year power purchase agreement (PPA) between the parties.[1][2]
