What this means

This document is a “Question and Answers Version 1” sheet for an RFP (T01/02/26) issued by the IDC for a Green Hydrogen Infrastructure Roadmap for South Africa (GHIR). It records administrative and technical clarifications, including an extension of the tender closing date to Monday, 16 March 2026, and corrections to the tender pack regarding Annexures 9–12. It also specifies key study requirements such as prioritising certain hydrogen and derivative products, excluding road transportation, requiring node-level modelling (with a defensible national corridor network), using high-level power system screening aligned to the Transmission Development Plan, and that the final report will be in the public domain.

Key Takeaways

RFP Number: T01/02/26
Subject: Green Hydrogen Infrastructure Roadmap for South Africa (GHIR)

Annexures 9–12: Section 12.1 error; Annexures 9–12 should not have been included; tender document updated
No mandatory technical requirements for evaluation (per Q4 response)
Contract terms: IDC will discuss with appointed bidder and agree accordingly
Products to prioritise: GH2 (gaseous/liquid), green ammonia and downstream derivatives, green/e-methanol, SAF; blending into existing gas networks out of scope; blending into liquid fuels networks not necessarily out of scope
Road transportation (light and heavy duty vehicles) excluded
Project pipeline dataset will be shared with appointed bidder (locations, capacity, product slate, expected COD, maturity)
Node-level modelling required; corridor network should be spatially grounded but not engineering feasibility design
Power system studies: only high-level screening aligned to TDP; model at least 3 electrolyser technologies
Water assessment: screening level sufficient
Handover of underlying models required
Monthly progress reporting required; final report in public domain
