Eskom delays Koeberg 2 maintenance to avoid ‘total shutdown’

Power utility Eskom says that the outage of Unit 1 of the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station is almost at an end, and it will be synchronised to the national grid by the end of October 2023.

However, it will still take two weeks to ramp up the unit to full power, meaning it will only be back in full form by mid-November.

Because of this, the maintenance on Unit 2 of the power station has been pushed back to around mid-November as well, Eskom said. The unit was initially scheduled to go dark on 3 November.
