State-owned electricity utility Eskom moved to clarify its statement that Anglo American’s New Denmark Colliery had supplied coal to the Tutuka power station between April 2015 and May 2016 at R1 600/t – a level that group executive for generation Matshela Koko described as “unacceptable”. In a statement, Anglo said that, “for the period in question (April 2015 to March 2016) we invoiced Eskom an average of R668/t, in line with the contract, mine progress and agreed budget between Eskom and Anglo American”.
