Eskom spoke to Briefly News about the challenges the state-owned utility faces in battling vandalism at its infrastructure including substations in townships.

State-owned entity Eskom announced that the country has been without loadshedding for 261 days. It also saved over R16 billion in diesel use. SA disputed.

An explosion at Eskom's Matla Power Station in Mpumalanga has left nine people injured, and South Africans are speculating that sabotage could be to blame.

City Power targeted two estates in Fourways, Johannesburg over unpaid municipal debts and even found that some homeowners illegally tampered with their meters.

McKinsey South Africa has been ordered to pay R1.1 billion for its involvement in state capture when it received contracts from SOEs Eskom and Transnet.

Eskom's CEO Dan Marokane told the Portfolio Committee on Energy and Electricity that Eskom's grid is stable and can prevent loadshedding for December.

The former CEO of Eskom and the MK Party MP Brian Molefe suggested that the entire country, including municipalities, should switch to using prepaid electricity.

Eskom and the City of Tshwane resolved to settle the debt Tshwane owes Eskom. Tshwane owes R6.6 billion and agreed to pay R400 million over five years.

Eskom said its prepaid meter box upgrade project was a success, and that almost half a million non-paying customers were able to come forward. SA disagreed.
