Eskom's biggest union blames Andre de Ruyter for load-shedding
The biggest labor group at South Africa’s Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd. blamed “poor leadership” for ongoing nationwide power cuts, a discordant sign as the utility embarks on a plan to become profitable again.
The National Union of Mineworkers is “very disappointed with the performance” of Eskom Chief Executive Officer Andre de Ruyter and the lack of a plan to prevent outages, it said Thursday in a statement.
The group also continues to oppose the use of independent electricity producers, which Eskom is counting on to help increase generation.
