Talle Weskussers het by die White City- veeldoelige sentrum vergader om meer oor Karpowership se planne te wete te kom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Karpowership-projek beoog om \u2019n gas-tot-elektrisiteit-skip in Saldanhabaai te anker. Volgens Karpowership SA sal di\u00e9 projek help om die elektrisiteitskrisis in die land te help verlig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die maatskappy is tans besig met hul openbaredeelnameproses met die volgende sessies wat in Coega en Richardsbaai gehou sal word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maandag se Weskus-sessie was die eerste van die drie en het \u2019n voorlegging in lewende lywe sowel as aanlyn behels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns is n\u00e1 maande se gemeenskapsbetrokkenheid verheug om die volgende stap te neem om betroubare elektrisiteit te verskaf. [Maandag] was \u2019n sukses met honderde lede van die gemeenskap en die media opgedaag het om met ons in gesprek te tree en die feite te kry, bekommernisse te deel en te hoor watter voordele ons projekte vir plaaslike gemeenskappe inhou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns bly daartoe verbind om Suid-Afrika se energiekrisis te help verlig, die las van beurtkrag te verminder en die daaglikse lewe van Suid-Afrikaners te verbeter terwyl huidige uitlaatgasse aansienlik verminder word,\u2019\u2019 het Kurt Morais, korporatiewe verhoudingsbestuurder vir Karpowership SA, ges\u00ea. Die projek is egter nie sonder sy teenstanders nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Organisasie teen Belastingmisbruik (Outa) het vanjaar \u2019n hofaansoek teen die maatskappy ingedien om hul opwekkingslisensie tersyde te stel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intussen het Barbara Creecy, die minister van bosbou, vissery en omgewingsake, ook die projek se omgewingsgoedkeuring afgekeur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een van die redes vir die afkeuring was die openbare konsultasieproses. Karpowership SA is dus nou besig met di\u00e9 proses en het nog tot 13 Januarie tyd om al die nodige aansoeke en prosesse te voltooi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Deel hiervan was om konsep-omgewingsverslae op te stel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Karpowership SA was meer as 30 onafhanklike spesialiste deel van die assessering vir elk van hul beoogde vasmeer-plekke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBetekenisvolle betrokkenheid by die publiek is \u2019n noodsaaklike deel van hierdie proses, en Karpowership SA is ten volle verbind tot deursigtige handelinge met gemeenskappe en belanghebbendes, asook die implementering van die uitgebreide sosiale en ekonomiese voordele wat die projekte vir plaaslike gemeenskappe sal inhou,\u201d het die maatskappy Maandag in \u2019n verklaring ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daar blyk egter wel plaaslike ondersteuning vir die projek te wees, veral in die lig van die plaaslike ekonomiese uitdagings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sammy Claasen, \u2019n plaaslike raadslid, het in sy hoedanigheid as woordvoerder van die West Coast Black Business Alliance ges\u00ea die omgewing kan nie altyd bo werkskepping geag word nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie land het \u2019n elektrisiteitskrisis. Ons is in die donker en gefrustreerd met die gebrek aan elektrisiteitsvoorsiening aan huise, ondernemings, hospitale en skole. Beurtkrag raak ondernemings en sal tot werkloosheid en armoede lei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns het \u2019n probleem met sogenaamde omgewing-stemmingmakery wat \u2019n veel ho\u00ebr premie bo die behoeftes en belange van die land en di\u00e9 van die mense stel. Hulle gebruik hoofstroommedia om \u2019n narratief teen die tegnologie van Karpowership te stoot en hulle praat asof ons gemeenskappe met hulle saamstem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns stem nie saam met hul sienings nie, want hulle raadpleeg ons nie of erken ons behoeftes nie. Ons het werk nodig en beurtkrag moet stop,\u201d het Claasen aan Weslander<\/i> ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
