 Article Headline: Lack of reskilling of coal miners, truckers a concern – Greenpeace
 Abstract: In light of industrial action by truck drivers in the coal transportation sector on Wednesday morning, in protest at Eskom's expected signing of power purchase agreements with more independent power producers, which they believe threaten their jobs, Greenpeace Africa campaigner Nhlanhla Sibisi notes that the protest are concerning, as it highlights the fact that the upskilling of miners and truckers in the coal sector is not happening as envisioned in the National Development Plan. “This process is important for the necessary transition to a low-carbon economy. Government has committed to decarbonising the electricity sector; however, job losses can be mitigated through the reskilling of the labour force in South Africa in a just transition away from coal and to renewable energy.
