SUBMISSIONS ON ESKOM’S APPLICATION FOR EXEMPTION IN TERMS OF SECTION 59 WITH THE MINIMUM EMISSION STANDARDS FOR 8 OF ITS COAL-FIRED POWER STATIONS
The Centre for Environmental Rights (CER), on behalf of groundWork and Earthlife Africa, submits a formal objection to Eskom's application for exemptions from Minimum Emission Standards (MES) for eight coal-fired power stations under section 59 of the Air Quality Act (AQA). The submission argues that these exemptions violate the constitutional right to a healthy environment, particularly for residents in Priority Areas, and that Eskom has failed to justify its 14-year delay in achieving compliance.
