KOEBERG NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
You probably did not come to Cape Town to tour the factories! But Koeberg has a little perfume of scandal that excites curiosity. By building these facilities in 1976, would the French companies Alstom and Framatome have contributed to the development of military nuclear power in South Africa? Was there actually in 1981 a secret contract that provides for Framatome's delivery of enriched uranium valued at $ 250 million? Today, Koeberg, the only nuclear power station in Africa, rotates like a clock (atomic) and it is… Electricité de France that monitors security! How diable the Greenpeace commando did to hang a band on the reactor at the Earth Summit in August 2002. You can walk through the wilderness reserve and take a look at the Visitors Centre to learn that Koeberg provides 6,5% of the country's energy needs.
