Gordhan, Eskom's Mabuza to address power crisis as rolling blackouts continue

Johannesburg - South Africa's state-owned electricity company Eskom continued implementing rolling blackouts on Tuesday as its crippled generating units struggled to supply enough power in a crisis likely to further hurt the ailing economy.

In its latest statement Eskom said it was again implementing "Stage 4" load shedding on Tuesday, which effectively involves suppressing 4 000 MW of demand on a rotational basis to avoid collapsing the national grid.

Mboweni's views on Eskom privatisation are just that, says deputy presidentDeputy president David Mabuza said Minister of Finance Tito Mboweni’s personal views should not be taken as ANC policy in terms of state owned entities. Fin24 there are so many Judases in Ramaphosa's cabinet beginning with his Deputy. Then there are those at Luthuli House working against him such as Ace, Mbalula etc.... Fin24 Expanding the power generation from a state monopoly that is broke and can't supply enough of it is a bad idea apparently.
