The Congress of South African Trade
Union said problems Eskom is experiencing including load-shedding has become a
serious national embarrassment and could have a major impact of economic growth
and job creation.
Cosatu Spokesperson Patrick Craven
said we need to make sure first of all in the short term that the generating
capacity which is now being constructed comes online as quickly as
possible.
Craven said in the long term we have
a complete review of our future plans for energy generations which cannot relay
on coal power stations.
“We need to remember that coal is a
non-renewable source and will eventually run out as well as it is very bad for
the environment. We need to look at
other sources of energy generation looking into the future” Craven added.
