South Africa is still on track for a comfortable winter as Eskom continues to see a positive trend to reduce unplanned power outages.
The power utility’s CEO, Dan Marokane, who has been in office for 100 days, gave another update on the winter outlook at Megawatt Park in Johannesburg on Friday.
He said operational recovery remains top of his agenda.
“Our focus is really beyond today, beyond load shedding, setting up this business for the next version. What we have is a really good base to work on,” said Marokane.
While Eskom has not implemented load shedding in 79 days, Marokane said the power utility is cautiously optimistic.
“We have seen some phenomenal in as far as the reduction of unplanned outages. For us to have a much more comfortable winter, we need to stay below 14,000mw of unplanned losses. We have averaged now 12,000mw of unplanned losses and that gives us some comfort,” he said.
