SELF SABOTAGE

SELF SABOTAGE: Recent incidents of sabotage at Eskom power stations, including Tutuka pictured here, have exacerbated the country’s load-shedding crisis. CEO André de Ruyter has alleged that some of the perpetrators are individuals with vested interests in the coal value chain. He has also suggested that their actions could back-fire, telling delegates to the Mpumalanga Energy Summit that individuals engaging in sabotage could, ironically, accelerate the demise of the coal fleet by making it less reliable.
