On Wednesday, the ailing power utility announced more plans to thrust the country into the darkness by implementing Stage 6 load shedding indefinitely.

JOHANNESBURG - Energy expert - Lungile Mashele has recommended that Eskom should import skills from countries such as China and the United States to assist in addressing the country's energy crisis.

Mashele, also a specialist engineer, said one of Eskom's major challenges is the exodus of skilled staff specialising in energy generation, and the unavailability of skills to replace them locally. “The outgoing group executive for Eskom's generation mentioned that some of the issues that they’re facing are outage slip on their maintenance, as well as a lack of project management, and a lack of skill."

You keep repeating same old erroneous story , please understand South Africa infrustructure is old, worn ou the ANC has not built anything of note to replace whzt boere left

We have lot of specialists. What you are busy with is state capture.

‘Expert’ - Eskom stopped load shedding with local engineers & execs Expert 😂

Eskom please switch off all the street lights to save power some of them are on day and night we don't really need them now .

State Capture version 2

No. We have qualified people. We need them to stop hiring there friends

Madness we black people who have the capacity to stop this rubbish

This is all because of BEE and AA also known as BlackSupremacy and Blackracism against minorities. If only the majority had to suffer alone for their stupid decisions and support for racism against fellow countrymen.

I take exception to that closed caption. The reality is that S.Ans must truly FORGET Eskom! Their monopoly is coming to an end. It is inevitable. Every hour which goes by without the supply of power anywhere in S.A is an attestment to this 🤞

To solve the energy crisis, Eskom must hire specialists from outside SA: expert. 100% correct, 100 top detectives are needed to trace the R1.3 TRILLION stolen by the ANC Thieves(As per the Zondo Commission) Then there would be no problem with diesel for ESKOM

Bring back the real technicians from pre 1994

What kind of nonsense is this?

..yep get some Cubans

Lol 🤣

I don’t think it will make a difference as to who they hire. 17 years of loadshedding has taught us something. Get up and do it yourself. Nobody really cares how you survive.

I have also suggested this but it fell on dead ears as the comrades think they can fix everything .They are good at breaking .

Absolute Rubbish! Koko and Molefe were able to solve it, drop the pride

Undermining our capability

Yeah, preferably from Cuba... not...

What happened to Solidarity engineers?

the specialist were given the boot by THE CURRENT REGIME ANC were freedom fighters not politicians

Futsek

Nonsensical statement.

Rubbish

What happened to the Germans that CyrilRamaphosa brought in?

Niyanya

Why, we have our own experts.

When? It's not like this is an urgency or anything. More talk and no action.

Eskom doesn’t need foreign nationals to come sort out Glencore criminality capture of Eskom, we are not inferior to China/ USA Bring back koko_matshela BrianMbm1 & top security company to root out CR17BankStatements criminality at Eskom LoadsheddingUpdates Stage_6

Only elon musk can save us. Wish he could buy eskom and do the same thing like he did Twitter.

We do have specialists in South Africa what we don't have it's the government and the president.

koko_matshela

Futsek

Rubbish

What's next? Hire Jesus, nidakiwe

Nidakiwe zinja. We have enough talent in here

Tsek!

I am not a specialist but I can solve eskom problems in one day

Don't forget about the syndicates.

For what reason,best mind tweeting

They dont want it fixed! There are solutions everywhere, this is a communist tactic to keep dictators in charge, create fear.

Yes… all the one’s left when they were told SA will not use coal anymore… but most are in foreign countries with families or retired… BUT there is a list of a 100 names that was supplied to Eskom that are experts - last word was only 5% appointed.. we know why.. fix that

South Africans must face reality and replan ahead. 1 there is no such thing as green energy transition.2 the power stations are old and cannot handle the demand anymore. 3 we need to build new ones or nuclear is our solution.

I truly believe the ANC and Eishkom are not trying to resolve the electricity issue. They will put you up stages so that you can be thankful for a permanent stage 3 to 4 South Africa. We will never ever be without loadshedding as long as the ANC run this country.

But ESKOM already employs 42 749 employes and we have the 'BEST' universities and still we have to hire specialist to fix our 15-year problem

Disagree... Get the people back who ran the company who they gave the boot...

While our Engineers are hired outside the country to supply skills. We dont have Engineering problems, we have problems with political plans to push their agendas by sabotaging our economy together with state owned businesses.

No. MYANC policies is where the issue is. Too many caders and quotas

Apparently the experts in SA are too white? As long as sabotage by the paid technitians happens; management will fail. No expert needed to tell us rocks don't burn.

Why are they sending many workers to technical colleges for training 🤔 The problem is rooted in sabotage from the white supremacists who want the black government to fail 😭🤔

Please man. This was stated months ago. Your singing a tune to keep people optimistic is rather pathetic

So out of 50+ million people in SA no one is good enough? I smell BS...

Rubbish!! We have people here in South Africa who have ended loadshedding, Ramaphosa through NPA_Prosecutes has made sure they charge them so that they’re not brought back to Eskom_SA should he not win the conference to ensure his corrupt 'renewable' project is not interrupted.

Like your US specialist Coleman Andrews that destroyed SAA?

They fired the best and got a bunch of useless family and stole the money !

Crap, we have of the best in the world right here.. go and figure...

I smell kickbacks and ANC cadres, a fimiliar very bad smell.

We have great experts from Zimbabwe to help

Just bring back the ones who they chased out the country

Or just specialists from INSIDE South Africa? Surely we give preference to local if we have available?

No just hire the white people you chased away, that is actually competent to do the work

Why…we have Koko and the Brian 👊🏼👊🏼

Where's all the experts that we did have

No you don't need to , hire the engineers , welders , etc that were all retrenched due to politics, hopefully you can find them !!! Most are all over the world making sure that country has power .

Disagree it should have been run correctly and maintained over the years, something our government is incapable of as all of the businesses in their control are suffering the same fate, and what would Cubans really be able to advice on,The ANC socialism ruined it

That won't solve anything. They must run it like a business that's the only way to solve the energy crisis

We don’t have the money… Eskom cris is sabotage…

Because some body was clever to introduce BEE AT ESKOM 🤔🤔🤔

12 HOURS of loadshedding EVERY 24 HOURS YOU, CyrilRamaphosa, is an INCOMPETENT LEADER, and your MYANC is CORRUPT TO IT'S CORE! WE CALL ON EARLY ELECTIONS 2023!

They had experts... they let them go now they in Kak... Eskom_SA

State capture 3.0 turbo

Outside being 'Cuba' akere, let's not beat about the bush!

Do fix asap!!!

WTF? In the middle 80's Eskom had the best of all! What happened to them? Dont bother to answer it is called BEE!

Amen

Not true. Eskom mst jst check every household if they are using free electricity. There are a lot of houses that does not buy electricity.

Yeah.... More Cubans

There were an engineering team that gave us minimal to no loadshedding between 2015-2018. Just get them back, the know ESKOM inside out.

Fire the CEO and bring back Molefe and Koko

I agree, but employ from first world country's and not Cuba..... Show their thread..

BS, we have competent people here. Competent Africans. We are unemployed.

Eskom must fire that white guy and bring back Koko and Brian

Eskom must build a nuclear power plant/s. Electricity doesn't come from thin air, it's generated. No amount of experts, panels, boards or promises will replace building a power generation plant. Coal is getting canceled, Solar is a one trick pony. NUCLEAR is the answer

Specialists of power plants were fired from 2018 by Ramaphosa and Gordhon especially black engineers

I mean hire any expert. Just get rid of bbbee

Cubans!

It feels like BCG is back! 🙈

And you are only realizing this now 4 months after constant loadshedding started!! The mind boggles.

Bring back Matshela Koko and Brian Molefe. Simple!

Rubbish. It should be run as a business. Stop supplying your product to people that don't pay. Cut your expenses (useless/unnecessary labour). Hire skill (there are still enough skilled people in SA)

🤣 Ke joke mos right? Are supposed to laugh? 😂 😂

Where are the retired South African specialists we honestly know how to waste money

Welele First they needed funding now foreign specialists? Bring back Koko_Matshela and Brian Molefe

They already did. more and more

Those power plants were built by people outside SA, the loadshedding as we speak has nothing to do with the people or skills shortage.

But not from Cuba!!

What a joke😂😂😂😂
