CSAG has been contracted under a continuation of a previous project to provide climate change projections information to inform ESKOM’s long term planning strategy with regards to electricity transmission.  A particular focus was the identification of suitable locations for generation stations with particular water and cooling requirements.  A continuation of the project is focussed on a combination of generation with the added component of power transmission including issues around fire risk, lightning and wind. Both downscaled projections and GCM based circulation fields were combined to provide multiple lines of evidence and hence draw more robust information to the decision making process.
