I can not undersatand why 'we' use coal as the rest of the world says & dictates use wind & other means as it is safer for the greenhouse effect.... seems as if ESKOM has no ears !! or it seems is too simple minded... think back .. TV should have been digital but now how many years later do they realize the ?? they made.. again ... going against the advice that is offered free ... even when Switzerland offer 30 free wind turbines ... they still say NO or so it seems...!!

I wonder what these people know about electricity production and distribution. We dont need weeler dealers but engineers at the top

Best get someone who knows what they are doing and as professional and experienced as Bobby regardless of race or SA will really be in the dark ages forever.

Phumie - that may be tha case but at what cost to the individual and economy as a whole. How could Eskom have been without a FD for 12 months and furthermore who has been calculating the price increases without FD review & authorisation? Lets hope that they arent in it for their bonuses as weve already been exposed to these and saw where it got us.

It is good to see they employ people with vast experience and relevant one too.
