Africa’s only existing
nuclear power station
This was the word here from energy minister Dipuo Peters as she addressed reporters outside parliament
The minister confirmed that South Africa had allocated R300 billion in its budget last week for its nuclear build programme. She emphasised, however, that the amount of money allocated was merely an indication for the nuclear build.
“It’s not a thumb-suck and we don’t actually say that is the end amount, but we believe that it is the beginning,” Peters added.
