South Africa has approximately 50 GW of installed capacity, implying Eskom now has roughly 32.5 GW of available installed capacity, alongside the battery and rooftop solar expansion we should theoretically be hovering on the margins of load-shedding. If these figures can be maintained, it could mean the end of load shedding and that we will have sufficient dispatchable energy available to allow for economic growth. Perhaps appointing qualified individuals indeed aids in effective governance?

This is an Eskom scam IMO. We have no way to verify their claims.

IMO it is a stunt to claim that RE Solar and Wind are reliable when we know that it is not.
