Summary
A letter from Eskom's Majuba Power Station to the Gert Sibande District Municipality reporting the availability of continuous dust emissions monitors from April 2015 to March 2016. It notes that gaseous emission monitors were only commissioned in April 2016 and explains availability gaps for Unit 5 (overhaul) and Unit 4 (equipment drift).
Key insights
- Between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2016, Majuba Power Station reported the availability of continuous dust emissions monitors (PM) across its six units to fulfill reporting requirements under Section 15 of the Minimum Emission Standards.
- Gaseous emission monitors provided no data for the 2016 financial year because they were not commissioned until April 2016.
- Specific operational issues affected monitor availability: Unit 5 underwent a general overhaul from April 2015 until January 2016, and the Unit 4 dust monitor recorded negative readings during August and September 2015, resulting in availability of less than 80% for that period.
