South Africa's Transnet National Ports Authority has signed a 25 year agreement with Ukwanda LNG to develop a regasification facility at the Port of Ngqura. The 22 billion ZAR project aims to support a 3GW gas to power allocation, providing baseload electricity to complement the national renewable energy mix. This strategic infrastructure project includes a dedicated LNG berth and onshore facilities to supply gas to industrial off takers and data centers. The project is part of the country's Just Energy Transition program, with full operational goals set for 2035.
