Eskom CEO Andre De Ruyter complains about crooked suppliers selling the power utility bad coal

In related news, Briefly News reported that Andre de Ruyter, Eskom's CEO, says the high demand for coal has made it profitable for corrupt suppliers to cheat the power utility.

The CEO of South Africa's only power utility claimed that the international demand for coal means that unscrupulous suppliers effectively take the coal meant for Eskom and export it to Europe. The suppliers then replace the "stolen' coal with discard coal.

The waste coal is of low quality, with a Calorific Value (CV) of seven to eight, compared to Eskom's mandated coal values of 15 to 18 CV. The power utility's CEO says that the discard coal doesn't burn very well because of its low CV.
