The net power output in megawatts is listed, i.e. the maximum power the power station can deliver to the grid. For notable facilities that are not operating or have been decommissioned, see List of decommissioned power stations in South Africa.Overview produced around 245,000 GWh of electricity in 2021. Most of this electricity is produced using coal and is consumed domestically. In 2022, 12,300 GWh were exported to , ,. .
South Africa is the seventh biggest coal producer in the world and has rich coal deposits concentrated in the north-east of the country and as such the majority of South Africa's coal-fired plants are located in the. .
