The Zest WEG Group has delivered 18 auxiliary transformers to Eskom’s new Kusile coal-fired power station near Witbank. This is part of an order placed in 2011 for a total of 42 auxiliary transformers, from 3 to 20 MVA, which will be supplied in consignments until 2016. It is one of the biggest orders the group has received for a single power station at one time.
Kusile is the second most advanced coal-fired power plant project in Eskom and will be the first power station in South Africa to have state-of-the-art flue gas desulphurisation technology installed to remove oxides of sulphur from the exhaust flue gases. The first unit is planned for commercial operation in 2014, with the last expected to be in commercial operation by 2018.
