Eskom’s Group Chief Executive, Dan Marokane: “Eskom, and in turn South Africa, now has a stable electricity platform to operate and grow from. This enables us to integrate renewable energy sources as per the 2025 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) for the maintenance of energy security in the future. Eskom is consciously assessing the new capacity build rate across all required technologies as this, along with other socio-economic conditions, will be vital in determining the transition of the coal-fired power stations." #EskomWinterOutlook2026

@JHBWater Here is a clue: go to South Road and see the burst pipe pouring thousands of rands away by the hour outside the Rivers Church.
