ESKOM is working hard on preparations to increase the length of new transmission and distribution lines to up to 800km per year in the next three years, from as low as 300km last year, according to new CEO Dan Marokane.
Marokane addressed the media on Friday 14 June as he reached the 100-day milestone in what is considered the most difficult job in South Africa.
He said the unbundling of Eskom has been too slow, but its transmission business will be standing on its own legs from 1 July as the National Transmission Company of South Africa. – moneyweb.co.za
