The Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) is the process to establish the need for power generation capacity expansion in South Africa. IRP 2019 highlights clear medium term policy positions (to 2030) whilst long term trends (to 2050) could show a range of further insights. IRP 2019 is not a long term visionary plan, does not report transparently & comprehensively & still applies arbitrary new build constraints on VRE.
