Turkish owned company, Karpowerships SA, says it will appeal the decision by the Forestry, Fisheries and Environmental Affairs department to reject it's bid of providing floating gas-fired power ships at three of the country's ports. This after the department rejected the potential deal with the company, citing insufficient public participation and the potential impact on the environment of the project. The Karpowerships, which are estimated to cost over 200-Billion Rands over a 20 year period, were expected to assist the power-grid by bringing in gas-burning ships at Richards Bay, Saldanha Bay and the Ngqura harbours to generate electricity.
