Recent statements by Minister of Electricity Kgosientsho Ramokgopa have raised the possibility of keeping SA's coal-fired power stations going for longer than the climate commitments implied by the JET partnership arrangement and the JET investment plan

. Ramokgopa's brief, since his appointment in March, is to improve the performance of Eskom's coal-fired power stations.

Also, addressing the conference Ramokgopa allayed fears that SA intended to comprise on its climate commitments made at the COP26 conference in 2021. "Investment must be made to strengthen the grid so that we don’t undermine the business proposition of embedded [renewable] generation … and are able to reach the NDCs."
