High Voltage Stations

Eskom provided the BioEnergy Atlas with a set of data to describe their current and planned infrastructure: High voltage transmission lines and substations; Medium voltage distribution lines and substations; Planned new transmission lines; Planned new substations. All of these were aggregated to meso-zones (planning and analysis zones used for the Atlas) in the following way: Distribution and transmission lines: presence or absence of lines; Substations: count of medium voltage substations, and proximity (5km) to high voltage substations.
