Eskom

Eskom is contesting a legal ruling that grants Tshwane metro municipality sole authority to supply electricity to residents, sparking a jurisdictional dispute over power distribution.

South Africa's power utility Eskom confirms it remains on schedule to fully phase out load reduction by March 2027, with five provinces already free from outages.

Recent electricity price increases by Eskom are exacerbating financial pressures on South African households, with consumers facing higher monthly bills amid ongoing energy challenges.
