Medium Term Plans for Recovery: 

Medium Term Plans for Recovery Demand Side Management (DSM) Continue short term DSM programmes in medium to long term Explore additional measures for implementation in the medium term Solar Water Heating Cogeneration Time Of Use Tariffs Establish a task team to investigate the feasibility of alternative DSM options, with associated business plan and targets Build Generating Plants Two liquid fuel generating plants are being built in Atlantis and Mossel Bay at a cost of R3.5bn Designed for peaking capacity Total capacity of approximately 1050MW Target completion before the winter of 2007 Strengthen the Transmission Grid Plans to reinforce the Cape Network at advanced stage with investment decisions expected in 2006
