Now Part 2 of this series should be - who owns the trucks delivering coal to Eskom Power Stations. Then maybe we will get closer to the real reason why 1. The rail transportation never works and 2. The conveyer system is constantly vandalised. As always great story.
The army is controlled by same people vandalizing the infrastructure and over that the army costed us over 200million only for the few days of being steady during EFF lockdown. We gona lose even more money as tax payers
The Provincial Governments should walk away from Eskom. It cannot supply on its economic mandate and it cannot be allowed to hold the provinces hostage to it's incompetence.
After a CEO who has complexion for protection leaves Eskom the Finance Minister says no need for Eskom to submit financial statements.... Connect the dots...
So it cn be seen that there is a mafia that is purposely destroying the Rail line. If so, then a state of emergency must be declared on that line. Secondly all coal must be monitored and escorted.
Renewables Cost-Benefit Analysis Stupidity. A two-megawatt windmill is made up of 260 tons of steel that required 300 tons of iron ore and 170 tons of coking coal, all mined, transported and produced by hydrocarbons. A windmill could spin until it falls apart and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it. These are the intended and unintended consequences of ideologically driven stupidity. And this doesn't count the cost and damage to the environment, like killing birds, the crazy noise levels and aerial visual pollution.
The whole continent of Africa is lying right in the middle of the eqter. Africa get so much sunlight that you could have natural gas and nearby solar energy since Eskom ues up tomuch waltz, They're been using 3point electric outlets instead of 2. So this in itself is very expensive.

Carte Blanche, still so great after decades. Big up
Wow I cant believe I have learned so much in 10 minutes… Government need to start using the army to safe guard the infrastructure
The army is controlled by same people vandalizing the infrastructure and over that the army costed us over 200million only for the few days of being steady during EFF lockdown. We gona lose even more money as tax payers
That's was extremely well done. I didn't even know about Majuba
No wonder we are paying so much for electricity 😥
This is very insightful. I was very cloudy on how power cuts were occurring when there are big plants and plenty of coal.
Glad it was helpful!
Exactly ..

Ramaphosa said government has no obligation to supply electricity. Go look for his response affidavit to court
After a CEO who has complexion for protection leaves Eskom the Finance Minister says no need for Eskom to submit financial statements....
Connect the dots...
Such a catch 22. I hate the expoitation that goes along with the mining of minerals etc, but what happens to the jobs, trucking and mining.
Andre for president

Eskom has been badly run for many years
It's tough being in management
The answer is Hydro Electricity , see Vietnam Electricity 309 hydro Electricity plants
You cannot believe what Eskom employees tell you
It's high time that our ruling party forgets the old ministers and elect young people to solve Eskom scandal
Cut the trucks bringing back trains
Well done!
I have to close my mouth now. It's fly season.
This aged well.
So he did the coal surveys and quantified it. ? Who approved the breaking ground for Majuba to proceed the with the building

We should consider turbine energy it's more clean and cheaper compared to coal
All power stations use turbines hu ??????
Turbine?
Background music is too loud
