State-owned power utility Eskom’s ambitious plan to expand South Africa’s transmission network, which includes the roll-out of 14 000 km of new power lines over the next decade, is expected to create significant opportunities for local suppliers, such as JSE-listed Reunert, to support the project. With a strong track record, technical expertise and black economic empowerment credentials, the company played a key role in Eskom’s last major transmission roll-out in the 2000s and expects to be a key supplier again.
