Load shedding costs country R500m per stage, per day – John Steenhuisen

DA leader says president’s inability to fix Eskom is pushing SA closer to complete economic destruction

Load shedding costs our economy R500 million per stage, per day

8 November 2021

Note to Editors: Please find attached video by DA Leader, John Steenhuisen MP.

The DA urges President Cyril Ramaphosa to engage with the DA’s plan to stop the rolling blackouts from Eskom that devastates our economy. The President’s inability to fix Eskom is pushing South Africa ever closer to complete economic destruction which will decimate South Africans’ lives even further.

The DA will be taking action through Parliament to urgently address this crisis, with our comprehensive plan to keep the lights on:

The grid must be placed under the control of an independent entity.

The restrictive license requirements must be waived.
