The plan to convert the Pretoria West power station into a waste-to-energy plant is interesting. These power plants incinerate non-recyclable waste, often municipal solid waste, to generate heat. The heat produced is then used to generate steam, which, in turn, drives a turbine connected to a generator to produce electricity.
In January 2024, the metro reported that the Pretoria West Power Station wasn't producing electricity, while the Rooiwal Power Station was generating 60MW — 240MW less than its maximum capacity. They were unable to operate at full capacity for various reasons, including underinvestment in infrastructure.
The two power stations were historically used to generate power for the City, but after the establishment of Eskom, this function was taken away from the municipality. The two power stations are producing energy at a minimum level in order to keep the stations functional.
The city has confirmed that it is moving forward with its plans to revive the two decommissioned power stations by leasing them to the private sector. The city revealed that progress so far has yielded positive results, and operations might start as soon as next month.
