A 120MW gas-fired power station at Ressano Garcia, on the border between South Africa and Mozambique, was officially inaugurated last week.
Castigo Langa, chairman of Gigawatt Mozambique, who developed the power station, said the $200m (R3.2bn) investment is also a first step in the harnessing of Mozambique’s huge natural gas resources not only for the benefit of Mozambique and its people, but also for whole of the Southern African region.
“The power station is strategically located close to the main transmission lines that connects South Africa and Mozambique,” said Langa.
