Show Notes
Eskom and Exxaro Resources extend their coal supply partnership until 2043, ensuring the Matla Power Stations operation. Despite South Africas push for renewables, coal remains the backbone of the countrys power, supporting over 90,000 mineworkers and generating 80% of electricity. The deal boosts energy security, cuts costs, and stabilizes the grid, while environmental groups and global pressures continue to challenge coals dominance.
