Taking place from 28-30 September at the Mount Nelson Hotel in Cape Town, this closed forum welcomes those responding to the recent gas-to-power procurement programme RFI and is held with the full support of the Department of Energy's IPP Office.

"The fact DNG has such experience in the sector as well as being a South African owned company, reinforces their relevance to this programme and we are delighted to be working closely with them on this meeting, which has taken nearly two years for EnergyNet to develop for the IPP Office," says EnergyNet's Damon Thompson.

Expertise aired

DNG commented that they have chosen to support SA:GO because they believe the conference is timely and will bring together the most important stakeholders in the industry in dialogue with government. The involvement of the IPP Office will ensure that opinions and expertise are aired in order to best contribute to a government policy that reflects both commercial realities and practical solutions to develop a gas to power industry that is also internationally competitive.

During the meeting the Department of Energy's IPP Office will present a timeline of actions for investors as well as examine the commercial opportunities for businesses developing gas-to-power and infrastructure projects.
