Eskom's June 2017 update reports progress on emission reduction retrofits at Grootvlei and Duvha power stations and a reduction in relative particulate emissions to 0.30 kg/MWhSO for FY2017. While generally compliant with postponed limits, Eskom is seeking further SO2 postponements for Matimba and Medupi stations. Additionally, a 30-house electricity pilot has begun in KwaZamokuhle as part of an air quality offset programme to transition households from coal to electricity.

• Eskom has implemented several emission reduction measures, including the start of the third and final fabric filter plant retrofit at Grootvlei Power Station and the testing of a high frequency transformer (HFT) pilot at Duvha Unit 5.
• Eskom reports that its power stations generally comply with Minimum Emission Standards postponement limits during normal operations, though it is seeking postponements for SO2 limits at Matimba and Medupi Power Stations due to occasional exceedances caused by high Sulphur coal.
• Relative particulate emissions for Eskom decreased from 0.36 kg of ash emitted per Megawatt-hour sent out (kg/MWhSO) in Financial Year 2016 to 0.30 kg/MWhSO in FY2017.
