Creamer Media's Energy Roundup is a monthly report providing a synopsis of energy-related news from South Africa. The September 2019 roundup covers activities in August 2019, and includes details of South African State-owned power utility Eskom's rejection of proposals by the National Treasury that it sell some of its power plants to reduce its debt; the Portfolio Committee on Mineral Resources and Energy's warning of an imminent energy crisis; and emerging liquefied natural gas and helium producer Renergen's loan agreement with the Overseas Private Investment Corporation for its Virginia gas project, in the Free State.
The report is a summary of information published in Engineering News and Mining Weekly, as well as of information available in the public domain, and does not purport to provide an analysis of market trends.
