Lethabo Power Station is one of Eskom's largest coal-fired stations. The station is unique in that it burns very low-grade coal with a calorific value of 16 MJ/Kg and an ash content of up to 42%. Jeff was joined by Charles Randolph (Mineral/Energy Officer) Embassy of the United states of America, Siseho Simasiku(Chairperson) Namcor Board of Directors from Namibia, Rojas Manyame (General Manager: Regulation) from Namibia and Daniel J. Le Roux (Senior Communication Practitioner) for Eskom amongst the few.

"This is one of the highlights for my energy business. The tour was very informative, interesting and an eye-opener. Daniel fed us with information from how energy is produced until it's supplied to the end-users. The processes that take place until the formation of electricity. Eskom is constantly investigating the use of other forms of energy and renewable enery sources that can be utillised to expand its current plant mix and that's where RBJ Energy Solutions comes into formation," says Mr Madibeng. "We are a distributor of Wind and Solar Power within Southern Africa and Africa."
