"If the @GovernmentZA wants to be taken seriously about stopping load-shedding then it must show that it knows what it is talking about. It can not be that what the Government communicates is continuously at odds with what Eskom publishes. What Cabinet communicated today is completely at odds with Eskom's weekly status report. @Eskom_SA in its 52- is showing no optimism at all. This is bad optics. Eskom projects load-shedding until September [----]. On top of that it projects the ceiling for plant breakdowns to increase from 15000MW to 16000MW. I sense the centre is not holding"

"I would like to hear a lot of talk about the routine maintenance that should be happening daily and on an hourly basis but it is not happening because of a naive emphasis on planned maintenance instead of a balanced approach to maintenance. Routine maintenance is what sets up your planned maintenance for success. It is what must be done for reliable and predictable performance @Eskom_SA Routine maintenance is instructive out of the continuous maintenance management system called SAP Plant Maintenance"
