While South Africa is experiencing a significant period during which there is no loadshedding, more time is needed before State-owned electricity utility Eskom can confidently declare an end to loadshedding, says Eskom primary energy GM Dan Mashigo. Speaking at the 2024 Coal and Energy Transition Day, held at The Country Club, in Johannesburg, on July 23, Mashigo noted the progress made thus far, with a 7% to 8% year-on-year improvement from last year.
