By working closely with the operational units, ERID is
able to understand the organisational challenges and to
pro-actively respond to find both short- and long-term
solutions.
Given the current Eskom challenges, it was agreed that
for the coming year, resources would be focused on:
- generation capacity, asset management and plant
performance
- transmission capacity, asset management and plant
performance
- distribution asset management and plant
performance
- demand-side management and energy efficiency
- coal quality and coal combustion
- renewable energy sources
- climate change
- safety, health, social and environment
- accelerated development of the underground coal
gasification project
- clean coal technologies
- HVDC (high voltage direct current lines)
