Eskom Fossil Fuel Reliance

Eskom is overwhelming reliant on fossil fuels. Eskom's coal-powered electricity plants are the main source of greenhouse gas emissions by South Africa.   While Eskom says it welcomes the  protest by Greenpeace activists at its Kusile coal-fired power station  saying it too was committed to a cleaner energy future for South Africa. Greenpeace maintain that the building of the Kusilr plant is a climate killer.
