Eskom expects that the maintenance programme to fix its generation infrastructure will carry on for about 18 months.

The power utility, he said, would then be able to, with a much better degree of certainty, indicate exactly what sort of disruption could be expected.

De Ruyter said Eskom would find the money from internal savings to implement its extensive maintenance programme and did not intend to approach the government for additional funding for that.
