# The Department of Mineral Resources and Energy aims to secure Cabinet approval for the new Integrated Resource Plan by March. The revised plan, unveiled yesterday includes major updates from the earlier draft. Key changes involve assumptions about Eskom’s coal fleet and increased wind energy allocations, now at 76.4-GigaWatts by 2050. Gas power remains significant, while solar PV and battery storage see reduced projections. Despite concerns over limited public consultation, technical reviews are ongoing to meet the March deadline.
