Seriti Power operates six large-scale, opencast and underground thermal coal mines supplying coal to Eskom’s Kriel, Tutuka, Lethabo, Kendal and Duvha power stations as well as some export markets.
On 1 June 2021, Seriti acquired the operations of SA Energy Coal Holdings Proprietary Limited (SAEC) from South32, bringing into the fold four additional mines – the Khutala, Klipspruit, and Middelburg Mines Services (MMS) North and South mines, which provide coal to the Kendal and Duvha power stations, as well as export coal via the Richards Bay Coal Terminal. Pegasus project acquired through the South32 acquisition.
In 2020, we supplied around 24 million tonnes of thermal coal to Eskom, generating about 23% of South Africa’s electricity supply. From 2022, coal production is expected to rise, with 34.3 million tonnes of thermal coal supply to Eskom on an annualised basis (generating about 32% of South Africa’s electricity), and around 6.7 million tonnes for the export market.
New Largo is currently being developed in phases as multiproduct Mini Pits to provide additional coal supplies to Seriti’s various coal markets.
