Abstract:

The ECC is for the operation and maintenance of an existing 132kV Zambezi - Katima transmission line including Katima substation. Under the Environmental Management Act (Act 7 of 2007) section 27 the activity described as "energy distribution, transmission and generation" requires an Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC) as it is a listed activity. In 2020 NamPower obtained the Environmental Clearance Certificate for the management and operation of the 132kV Zambezi - Katima transmission line. NamPower would therefore like to apply for the renewal of the ECC for 132kV Zambezi โ€“ Katima line in order to comply with the Environmental Management Act (Act 7 of 2007) and its regulations. This application will also include the Katima Substation that was not previously included.
