Richards Bay Coal Terminal in South Africa sees coal exports hit 52.08 million tonnes, up 10%, with Asia as the main buyer.

Coal exports from South Africa's Richards Bay Coal Terminal increased by 10% in 2024 to 52.08 million tonnes, the highest in three years, thanks to improved freight rail performance. Despite ongoing issues with Transnet, the state-owned rail and port operator, Asia now accounts for 84.5% of South Africa's coal exports, with major imports to India and Pakistan. This marks the first growth in seven years for the terminal.
