Koeberg radiation incidents pose no danger to public: Eskom

Eskom has assured the public that it applied due diligence in containing radioactive material in its operations at the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station in Cape Town.

This comes after three radioactive contamination events occurred at Unit Two of the power station during maintenance work.

The power utility says the events resulted in elevated airborne radioactive contamination within controlled areas of the containment building.

Eskom Board Chairperson Mteto Nyati has stressed that the incidents posed no danger to the public.
