Independent Power Producers Office

The Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (IPPPP) was established at the end of 2010, through a joint initiative between the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy, National Treasury and Development Bank of Southern Africa, as a vehicle to secure electricity from the private sector.

The IPP Office provides independent procurement, IPP contract management services and energy advisory services to the DMRE and the broader energy sector.

To date, the IPP Office has implemented 9 bid windows procuring a total of 136 IPP projects at a contracted capacity of 12 909MW. Of these, 91 projects are fully operational and are contributing 7 110 MW to the national grid.
