DNG Power

About DNG Power

DNG Power provides gas-to-power solutions responding to SA’s energy needs. We supply secure, cheaper and stable alternative energy (LNG), in line with the country’s national commitment to transition to cleaner sources of energy to support the economy while solving the current electricity generation crisis. We have the rights to import LNG to support the development of power generation capacity as per the country’s IRP, which seeks to add more generation capacity by 2030 in order to restore energy security. 

Using natural gas as a source of power gives South Africans a reliable alternative to power the economy. It also presents the country with a cleaner source in its energy mix to ensure that various technologies support each other in supplying electricity reliably 24/7.  

Natural gas is not just important for industry but it can do more for the domestic use. It can be used for water heating, clothes drying, cooking, and mood-setting fireplaces. It can also be used outdoors for barbecuing, gas lighting, and even to heat your swimming pool or hot tub. 

The environmental, as well as social and economic benefits, that come with the use of LNG includes helping South Africa meet its targets in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, driving economic growth and thus improving the lives of all its citizens.  

DNG Energy will utilise gas infrastructure that comprises pipelines as well as virtual solutions. Underground pipelines mean there is no disruption of supply due to storms or power outages while virtual solutions ensure that natural gas can reach even far-flung areas where pipelines are not available.  

DNG Power Projects

We are actively developing gas-to-power plants in Komatipoort, Malelane, Coega, Mossel Bay and Saldanha Bay. These plants will help provide a solution in delivering gas-powered generation as quickly as possible to serve South African communities’ energy needs.
