As South Africans experience Stage 2 load shedding, Eskom’s new Group CEO, Dan Marokane, officially assumed his role today.
In a statement, the beleaguered parastatal said the Board
has asked him to prioritise several key areas in the first 100 days
“We expect Dan and his leadership team to accomplish at
least two critical tasks. First, they must address the current business
challenges. Loadshedding must become a thing of the past. Second, they need to
reposition and restructure Eskom to enable growth and sustainability,” said Eskom
Board Chairman Mteto Nyati
He expressed confidence in Marokane’s abilities, as well as
in the leadership and staff of Eskom, emphasising their collective commitment
to turning the organisation around.
In Marokane first 100 days, he is expected to assess the
Generation Operational Recovery Plan, review Eskom’s unbundling plans, and
engage with internal and external stakeholders.
‘’These first 100 days are crucial for helping him gain necessary
insights about Eskom and the industry. He should be in a position to engage
with the media at the end of this critical period,’’ said Nyati.
“Dan has the full support of the Eskom Board. Eskom
employees are excited to welcome him back into the organisation. We invite all
South Africans to rally behind him as he steers Eskom toward stability, reliability
and sustainability,” he added.
