Nuclear Island – Mainly Safety Class 1 & 2
Primary Circuit
Conventional Island – Mainly Safety Class 2 & 3
Secondary CircuitSome Facts You Shouldn’t Know……
EPC costs ~R60Bn/GW
40% Localisation ~R24Bn/GW
Early Infrastructure Works ~R20Bn
Vendor Funding Options Available
E&C Lead Time 8 to 10 years
Spend Ramped up over 4 years
Highest Employment Density
Most Competitive Electricity Prices
Balance of PlantMainly Safety Class 3 ~ ISO 9001
Tertiary Circuit
“Strong Nuclear Safety Culture” “Nuclear Safety Culture”
“Safety Culture”
25% Localisation = 15% of EPC Cost 50% Localisation = 12% of EPC Cost
66% Localisation = 13% of EPC Cost
40% Potential for Localisation of the First Two Units (Stretch!)

E & Q
Adding a Nuclear Capability to your Business
A Nuclear Capability is something you should augment from an
existing and successful Capability in your Organisation.
The dynamics of a Nuclear business are different from conventional
operations and should be managed separately but remain
connected to the top of the Organisation. (Governance)
A Nuclear Capability only operates successfully within a robust
Nuclear Safety Culture maintained by its Leadership and Staff.
A Nuclear Capability in your Organisation will influence and
enhance the overall performance and recognition of your business.
