Eskom stuck in a vicious cycle

[Daniel Puchert]

South Africans dump Eskom because of high prices and load-shedding

Eskom is facing an uphill battle in its efforts to achieve financial sustainability and ensure that South Africa becomes load-shedding-free.

Eskom, which is South Africa's sole energy utility, is in severe financial distress and battling to get municipalities to settle their debts and halt dwindling demand.
