South Africa's Eskom in talks with Anglo American over coal supply for Kusile

JOHANNESBURG, Nov 24 (Reuters) - South Africa's Eskom will conclude talks with Anglo American (LSE: AAL.L - news) over coal supply to its Kusile power station in the next three months, group executive Matshela Koko said on Tuesday.

Eskom, which reported a 22 percent rise in half-year profit, is building the coal-fired Kusile and Medupi power stations to ease an energy crunch in Africa's most industrialised economy, where electricity supply shortages have hurt GDP growth.
