The ECC is for the operation and maintenance of the existing 220kV Van Eck – Auas Powerline 1, 2 & 3. 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 220kV Van Eck– Auas transmission line. NamPower would therefore like to apply for the renewal of the ECC for 220kV Van Eck– Auas line in order to comply with the Environmental Management Act (Act 7 of 2007) and its regulations.
