Group Five is well known for its iconic civil structures.

Constructors in Eskom’s 20th century capacity build.

Providing Turnkey EPC solutions for African Energy.

Support IPPs in project Development and Construction.

Constructors in Eskom’s 21st century capacity build.

One of the leading constructors in SA REIPP program.

Does all this qualify us for a nuclear build?

Rebuilding a Nuclear Construction Capacity

Koeberg circa 1980

Koeberg Today

NECSA Research Reactor

Nuclear Construction; a forgotten era in South Africa.

South Africa remains a proud construction nation.

Koeberg is preparing SA for nuclear construction.

Realising our nuclear potential in local partnerships.

Secure our best resources for a nuclear new-build.

Grow our nuclear industry development forum. (NIASA)

Opportunities for SMEs in a nuclear build program

needs to be realised.

What is Nuclear Safety?

What is Nuclear Safety Culture?

These are the gatekeepers to the local industry. (NNR)

A nuclear safety culture requires proven and trusted

standards, organisations, systems and individuals.

Can this be achieved in South Africa?

The need for an industrialisation program for SA

Measuring up to Nuclear Safety Requirements Koeberg 1980 (LTA and Roberts Construction)

Nuclear Safety: - (IAEA)

The achievement of proper operating conditions, prevention of accidents or

mitigation of accident consequences, resulting in protection of workers, the public and the environment from undue radiation hazards.

Nuclear Safety Culture: (INSAG 4)

Safety Culture is that assembly of characteristics and attitudes in organizations

and individuals which establishes that, as an overriding priority, nuclear safety

issues receive the attention warranted by their significance.

A Vision for the Industrialisation of NPPs in South Africa

03 SECTION 3

11

Desired objective: “The optimal localisation of high quality,

safe and reliable NPPs, in the hands of satisfied customers and

successfully delivered to nuclear industry best practices.”

Establish and commit a robust localisation forum.

Take stock of what we already have in South Africa.

Learn from successful global nuclear industrialisation

programs.

Development, Training and Authorisation of Skills.

Support Government and Private industrialist in

nuclear manufacturing and construction.

Develop a structured NPP procurement model.

Nuclear industrialisation is a national objective.

Making Nuclear Industrialisation a Reality

Why Support a Nuclear Build Program for South Africa?

04 SECTION 4

15

Nuclear Energy delivers the combined benefits of Coal

and Renewable energies. “Clean Base-Load Power”

SA needs long-term vision in energy planning scenarios.

Nuclear’s competitiveness needs to be realised in SA.

EU Tariffs: French-Nuclear vs German-Coal/Renewable.

Nuclear demands reliable, long-term industrial partners.

The “Game Changer” in developing intellectual careers.

Could the Transport industry become the next IEUG?

Independence from liquid fuel volatility, but is Coal or Gas

the “future” to pass on to the next Generation?
