Energy Roundup – July 2016

Creamer Media's Energy Roundup is a monthly report providing a synopsis of energy-related news from South Africa in the past month. The July 2016 roundup covers activities across South Africa in June 2016 and includes details of State-owned electricity utility Eskom’s termination of contract negotiations for the rebuild portion of the Duvha Unit 3 boiler recovery project; the South African government’s proposal to secure a local-content level of 50% in the country’s proposed new nuclear power plant programme; and automation technology group ABB’s inauguration of the group’s first microgrid in South Africa.

The report is a summary of information published in Engineering News and Mining Weekly, as well as of information available in the public domain, and does not purport to provide an analysis of market trends.
