New plan to end Eskom power blackouts in South Africa

Eskom has a plan to eliminate its maintenance backlog and reduce load shedding, according to its CEO Brian Molefe.

Please give Mr Molefe some toilet paper to wipe up all that stuff that is spewing out of his entitled mouth.

The don't know half the cr@p they're talking about. They just can't say they don't know. This is why they think throwing loads of money will resolve the problems caused by incompetence and years of corruption.

If we only use 33000 MW in winter why is there a need for more power stations when it seems like there is over supply already.
Am I missing something here.
Also enough talk and more action.
EMPLOY COMPETENT PEOPLE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We only use that because of load curtailment and other efficiency measures.
We need more so that as the economy grows, so can generation. We also need reserve capacity for when something fails. And power stations don't last forever either.

“Maintenance without load shedding” is Eskom’s new strategy

Thats not a strategy thats an aspiration.

Its like claiming my "strategy" is to have a million dollars.

Rather tell us *how* that is going to be achieved...that could legitimately be called a strategy.

And we are not interested in excuses about gunfire and bomb threats. Pathetic. Perhaps having no effective police force plays a role in that? The citizens of SA live with gunfire and ATM bombings daily. The true thugs are behind schedule and over budget. Get your masters in the east to build a military base nearby, and have them send labourers willing to replace the entitled, ineffective, spoilers currently making the project ungovernable. Or just build a Medupi fire pool to deal with any potential explosions.
