Ingula Nature Reserve added to Ramsar Wetlands of International Importance list

The Ingula Nature Reserve, created to conserve the unique wetland and high altitude grassland area that hosts State-owned power utility Eskom’s Ingula pumped storage scheme, has been included in the International Ramsar Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, which is an international treaty for the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands. The addition of the wetland to the list is the culmination of many years of hard work by Eskom and its partners BirdLife South Africa and the Middelpunt Wetland Trust.
