Companies yet to complete financing arrangements to build 1 850 MW of power-generation capacity in South Africa in terms of a government tender in 2021 may lose the right to connect to the national grid at the end of this month. The access for projects by Karpowership, Acwa Power Co. and others relating to contracts for 2 000 MW awarded more than two years ago expires on July 31, national power utility Eskom said in an emailed response to questions. Scatec ASA has achieved so-called financial close for its 150 MW of projects.
