Nuclear power facility Koeberg approved to operate one unit for an additional 20 years.

  • Resumen

  • The nuclear regulator for South Africa, NNR, has announced that one of the plant's two units may continue to operate for an additional 20 years at the Koeberg nuclear power station.
    Unit 1 of the plant, west of Cape Town was set to have its 40-year operating license expire this month, but state-owned power company Eskom requested a 20-year extension to continue operations in an attempt to alleviate the severe power outages. We are joined by Princess Mthombeni, creator of Africa4Nuclear, to discuss the implications of the regulator's decision for the nation's power system over the next 20 years and how it will move away from a coal-dominated energy mix.
