Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter told lawmakers on May 6 that “good progress” had been made on the “divisionalisation”, under Eskom Holdings, of the utility’s generation, transmission and distribution businesses, with separate boards and MDs having been appointed for each unit. He also indicated, however, that full legal separation of the businesses is only expected during 2023 as part of “phase 2” of the roadmap to legal unbundling.
