Gov�t discontinues Matshelagabedi power plant

Delivering the State of Nation Address this week, President Ian Khama said the refurbishment of Morupule A is ongoing and Unit 1 of the plant is currently undergoing commissioning and the refurbishment of all the remaining three units will be completed by the end of December this year.

 “Once Morupule A is up and running, the Matshelagabedi diesel power peaking plant will be discontinued in an effort to bring down the cost of power generation in the country,” he said.
