SPEDU, BCL Urged To Cooperate

SELEBI-PHIKWE: Councillors have advised SPEDU to work closely with BCL mine, especially for projects in which they do not have technical expertise such as harvesting of mine emissions.

“Capturing of mine emissions is not easy as SPEDU wants to portray it, hence giving the public high hopes may present some challenges,” he said. “Theory and technology is there, but it is not easy as there are lots of costs involved.”
