Welcome to Creamer Media’s Resources Watch, a weekly video round-up of the events and people making and shaping the news in the mining industry.

This week:
Eskom targets 975 MW in savings as it restarts its DSM schemes.
And, Vested interests and a lack of understanding are the key impediments to a PGMs exchange.

State-owned power utility Eskom, which halted its demand-side management interventions last year owing to funding uncertainties, reports that some of the programmes will be restarted this year and that a savings target of 975 MW has been set.

Eskom senior GM for integrated demand management Andrew Etzinger

As more than 80% of the world’s known platinum-group metals reserves are in South Africa, it is ideal that a PGMs exchange be established locally to ensure that the country receives maximum benefit from its mineral wealth.
