  • For the 2016/2017 financial year, Camden Power Station's total annual emissions were 9,287,156 tons of CO2, 74,741 tons of SO2, 39,783 tons of NOx, 1,045 tons of PM, and 156 tons of N2O.
  • The power station is implementing a project to install Low NOx Burners to reduce NOx emission levels; as of May 2017, installation was completed on units 2, 4, and 6, with work on unit 1 in progress.
  • The second cycle of the Bagfilter Replacement Project was completed across all units to replace fabric filter plant bags that had reached the end of their life.
  • Eskom utilizes opacity monitors for particulate emissions and calculates gaseous emissions using mass balances for SO2 and CO2, station-specific factors for NOx, and a generic factor for N2O.
