Eskom R50-million win
Eskom has revealed that infrastructure vandalism and theft cost R221 million between 1 April 2024 and 28 February 2025 — R50 million less than the R271 million the criminal activities cost the utility in the same period the previous year.
However, the state-owned power utility warned that the frequency of incidents remains high and is a serious concern, as criminal acts have widespread consequences for the electricity supply and threaten public safety.
