Eskom has suspended construction of the Medupi power plant in Limpopo due to violent protests by contract workers. The plant is meant to help prevent a looming power crunch.
Work has also been suspended at Eskom's Kusile power plant in Mpumalanga following protests there last week.
Workers are apparently unhappy about foreigners being hired as welders. Eskom has said that power supply will be tight for several years due to a lack of capacity.
