COMPETITIVE PRESSURE President Cyril Ramaphosa continues to drive for electricity competition as a way of addressing the structural problems that led to years of supply disruptions. His latest intervention in this regard was the endorsement of the Phase I report of the Eskom Restructuring Task Team. The report recommends establishing an independent Transmission System Operator (TSO) outside of Eskom, which is viewed as key to levelling the playing field. Much attention now will be on the timing of the grid-asset transfer to the TSO.
