The City of Cape Town says it has budgeted R 86-million for the next 3 financial years for the operation and maintenance of a landfill gas flaring system at the Vissershok Landfill.

Organic matter that ends up in landfills decomposes in the absence of oxygen and forms landfill gas that is rich in methane.

According to news on the City’s website, a system to convert landfill gas from the landfill into electricity is being designed for implementation around 2024/25, which is estimated to cost R 197 million.
