Let this sink in: A new 4800 MW power plant (Kusile) approved for build around 2007, to be ready in 6-years at cost R81bn, has taken 15 years, cost us R233bn & is incomplete, (1 of 6 units partially operational). How’s that for gross incompetence?

No power from Kusile after R233 billion and 15 years of construction

Energy analyst Chris Yelland said not a single generation unit at Kusile Power Station is generating electricity despite an investment of R233 billion and 15 years of construction.

ANC, Cosatu and SACP at loggerheads over state capture report?
