Summary
This annual emissions report for the Duvha Power Station covers the 2015/16 financial year (01 April 2015 to 31 March 2016), detailing verified particulate emissions and calculated gas emissions as required by the station's Atmospheric Emission License.
Key insights
- Total annual emissions for the 2015/2016 financial year included 14,951,904 tons of CO2, 246,045 tons of N2O, 111,338 tons of SO2, 61,459 tons of NOx, and 4,502 tons of particulate matter (PM).
- High emission levels were recorded in June, September, October, and December 2015, which were attributed to plant failures including SO2 plant trips, faulty precipitator fields, and malfunctioning air lift vessels.
- Eskom planned a test project to install High Frequency Transformers (HFTs) in one of the units (Unit 4, 5, or 6) that use Electrostatic Precipitator abatement equipment to evaluate if the technology can reduce particulate matter (PM) emissions.
- During the 2015/2016 financial year, one compliance audit was conducted at the Duvha Power Station.
