RNS Number : 9157CEdenville Energy PLC24 June 2021 24 June 2021 Edenville Energy Plc("Edenville" or the "Company") Operational UpdateandChange of Director Roles Edenville Energy Plc (AIM: EDL), the AIM quoted company operating the Rukwa Coal Project in southwest Tanzania, is pleased to provide an update regarding the Company's Rukwa Coal Project ("Rukwa" or the "Project"). The Company is pleased to report that following the recent induction of the new President in Tanzania and the lessening impact of Covid-19 there has been considerable positive sentiment in the region, which appears to be translating into business confidence and action. This has been further supported by a new approach to marketing of the Company's coal products. As a result of this, the Company is anticipating achieving a full order book over the next few months. - The Company has commenced the shipment of coal fines from the Rukwa mine site. To date over 1,000 tonnes have been transported with an expected ongoing demand of 1,000-1,200 tonnes per month. This material is being dug from existing stockpiles. - The Company expects to re-commence shipping washed coal in July to one of its anchor tenants with a supply arrangement of 750 tonnes per month having been agreed. - A trial shipment of 180 tonnes of washed coal has been dispatched to a local cement producer and subject to satisfactory performance of this coal an order of 3,000 tonnes per month is anticipated to follow in July. - An export order has been received for a trial shipment of 480 tonnes of washed coal. Subject to satisfactory performance a total requirement of 3,000-5,000 tonnes per month has been indicated from this customer. - The Company has recommenced discussions with the Tanzanian Government and recently been invited to submit an unsolicited proposal for the supply of coal to an on-site power station owned and operated by the Tanzanian Government. The Tanzanian Government power planning programme shows the need for a base load plant by 2026. In the event that all of these contracts materialise as anticipated in Q3 2021, this would equate to some 6,750-8,750 tonnes per month of washed call and 1,000-1,200 tonnes per month of fines. Consistent with the positive sentiment in the region the Company is working on a number of other supply opportunities in the East African region, for which further expansion of production capacity at Rukwa may be required. The status of the agreement with Infrastructure and Logistics Tanzania Limited ("ILTL"), as announced on 8 June 2020, will be reviewed once production rates at Rukwa exceed 3000 tonnes per month. Further announcements will be made as appropriate. Change of Director Roles With the return to more normal working conditions in Tanzania and the focus of the Company on exploring potential acquisition opportunities, acting CEO and Chairman Jeff Malaihollo has handed back CEO responsibilities to Alistair Muir. Jeff Malaihollo will continue to be Non-executive Chairman of the Company. In addition, the Directors are reviewing the composition of the Board, with the appointment of at least one additional non-executive director proposed to be made. Alistair Muir, CEO of Edenville, commented: "It is pleasing to see business beginning to return to normal in Tanzania and we look forward to realising the full potential of Rukwa. On the acquisition front we have recently spent time with our new strategic investor, Tony Buckingham, and we look forward to exploring opportunities with him and his team, alongside those provided by other parties."

Come on Nick and Tony tell us something to keep us all interested. You could at least explain what's really happening at Rukwa?

[blue59] 08/6/2021 12:08

Other than highlighting the corruption involved in doing business in Africa I’m not sure what relevance that has to EDL?!

loads of coal needed!


SOUTH AFRICA’S POWER GRID STRUGGLES WITH HIGH HEATING DEMAND
The majority of southern Africa has been experiencing anomalous cold of late.

Below were the forecast anomalies for Sunday, June 6:



GFS 2m Temperature Anomalies (C) for June 6 [tropicaltidbits.com].





As a result, South Africa’s electricity grid is struggling to cope with the high-heating demand.

Power utility Eskom is failing to keep up with the maintenance of its ailing power stations — and with winter setting in early this year, South Africa is on course for more outages than ever before.

This warning comes from energy expert, Chris Yellend, who recently told the City Press that Eskom’s plan to decommission six units at coal-powered plants in the coming months could potentially push load shedding to stage 5, and beyond.

The power utility has said that the national grid will come under severe pressure during the winter months, as electricity demand increases as temperatures continue to drop.

In December 2019, Eskom and municipalities in South Africa updated their load shedding schedules to go up to stage 8, after the country was forced into stage 6 load shedding.




Stage 4 load shedding removes 4,000MW of power from the grid, leaving homes and businesses without power for longer. Stage 5 removes 5,000MW, stage 6 removes 6,000MW, and so on and so on…

The unprecedented “stage 8” load shedding could be on the cards in the near future, as an aging infrastructure plus low solar activity-induced cooling threatens a disastrous combo in 2021. Consumers would be in darkness for 48 hours over four days under stage 8 shedding — or half the day would be spent without power, explains businesstech.co.za.

Aside from the direct impact on citizens being unable to put the lights on and heat their homes, the extended load shedding also has dire consequences for the economy.

Yellend previously calculated that the South African economy effectively loses out on R1 billion worth of productivity per stage of load shedding, per day — at stage 4, that would be R4 billion lost every day.

Government says it is moving urgently to resolve South Africa’s energy crisis, but two major projects have already hit stumbling blocks amid claims of political interference — a contract to supply additional power to the grid using Turkish power ships is facing accusations of tender-rigging and corruption.

Meanwhile, energy minister Gwede Mantashe’s decision to limit individuals and private companies to generating only 10MW of power themselves is also creating unnecessary politically-driven bottlenecks in stabilizing power supply. Many are calling for Mantashe to be removed from office.

Edenville Energy PLCKEEP UP TO DATE WITH THE LATEST NEWSDATE06.05.21A real Game Changer for Edenville Energy PLC "...Critically for Edenville we have the right shareholder base, we have a good operating management team, we have a nice board, are now well capitalised and will be debt free..." Indeed that's a nice platform to relaunch Edenville Energy from.The company known for its Rukwa Coal to Power project in Tanzania is diversifying and it is doing so after raising £2.5 million and attracting a cornerstone investor in the form of oil and gas veteran, former Heritage Oil chief executive Anthony (Tony) Buckingham.Edenville's non-executive director Nick Von Schirnding is delighted with Buckingham's £1 million cash injection, and describes Buckingham as "a game changer for the company going forward."This cornerstone investor now has an 18.5% shareholding in Edenville and according to Schirnding, Buckingham has already "put some ideas forward for new investments" and is an indispensable cog in the company's "more ambitious strategy outside coal."These new investments are part of the company's reset which includes searching for assets that will power a greener economy. "The focus going forward is on additional key strategic metals and minerals that play such a key role in environmentally strategic assets such as EV or batteries or green energy."Schirnding also notes that copper and lithium prices have gone 'through the roof' and is confident they will stay there. "We're in the beginnings of another super cycle and I forsee things getting stronger and stronger as the whole environmental and green energy space becomes more and more critical. It's almost like the early scramble in the early days of the gold rush."And Edenville wants to be able to cherry pick assets early and quickly, and is hopeful that by the end of 2021 they will have "injected at least one key asset into the group which will be the key strategic focus for the group going forward."So what about the asset Edenville initially set its stall out on – coal? Schirnding says the company will continue to extract as much value from those assets as possible. With a new President in office, operations in Tanzania are less problematic. Currently Rukwa is in a 'good operational state' and Schirnding says it could be of interest to a third party.Either way Rukwa remains at the heart of Edenville's portfolio until those new assets come on stream. Schirnding admits to being 'impatient,' but he is confident companies under the right management can be transformed quickly as evidenced by Arc Minerals the company he chairs. It's been close to a £100 million market cap and as he explains to Sarah Lowther he doesn't see any reason why Edenville can't achieve the same.
