Ankerlig Power Station (previously known as the Atlantis OCGT power station) is one of five gas turbine power plants in South Africa and has the capacity to produce 1338 Megawatts.
The plant name is derived from the Afrikaans form of the expression "raise the anchor" (Afrikaans "lig die anker"); it is intended to connote a community that 'raises the anchor and sails away from poverty towards prosperity'.[1] The Ankerlig plant was built at the same time as the Gourikwa Power Station at a combined cost of R3.5 billion and was opened on 1 October 2007 by Deputy President Mlambo-Ngcuka.[2] The plant is located close to the R27 just north of Atlantis in the Western Cape.
