Brilliant outline of a department in evolution. Thank you for giving new hope Min. Ramakgopa!

Thank you! Doing a great Job!!

This guy really knows his stuff. He is not waffling , he is clear on his department's objectives and challenges. Imagine if every department was led by someone knowledgeable on the field. Angie Motshekga minister of defense... hayi let me tool.

We will pay Minister. We are behind you. Let those who cannot pay be subsidised accirdingly and let us affordable tariffs. Do not let those who are doing their best to support the efforts of the department become exasperated.

And now we pay so much for electricity !!! How must poor people afford this and also old people ???? How must they live ? 😢

How must anyone afford this??? The painful irony is that the middle class bears the brunt of all the debt this government has created

Everyone is feeling the pinch. One way or another the debts must be paid so power may be affordable. More employement would help as well.

Why are there differences between the tariffs charged by Eskom in its areas of distribution compared to the tariffs charged by municipalities. Do they the municipalities add their margins on top of the bulk tariffs by Eskom like a middleman charge. If the Minister could explain this, I will be happy.

This man is well informed, things will change

This guy is an asset to our country Ramaphosa knew what he was doing by appointing him

Dr Ramokgopa has established his eminence... Noticeable progress👏

Can i ask a very simple question, which is: is it sustainable for any business, whether for profit or nonprofit, to supply and do mot get paid back. We can build a very well functioning infrastructure but if the collections for supplied electricity are not forthcoming , that business model is unsudtainable. This issue becomes more relevant when electricity cost is becoming more expensive. In this scenario, the distribution leakages through issues like illegal connections due to unaffordability, will be escalated. Further, the higher elecitrocity costs will simply feed into increase in inflation. This creates another economic dilemma.

I like the referencing of scientific theory- maslow, pareto etc

I like that the Minister sees the impact of high elecitricity tairiffs in fuelling inflationary pressure.

I totally agree. Distribution is our albatross.

This is an Engineer that is why! Very clear...i respect Sputla!

Big Ups @SABC for quality upgrade, keep it up. Hope to see drones next time.

I’m one of those consumers who’s been a diligent buyer of Eskom electricity. I’m 11months without electricity because transformer damage due to: 1. Illegal connections (due to unemployment | ‘kasi culture’ of nonpayment) 2. Overpopulation 3.Lack of Infrastructure maintenance by Eskom 4. By-laws not being enforced (people extending their houses without following the right process which is also due to lack of education from CoJ) 5. Political will

Ramokgopa for President🙌🏾 It's quite clear the man has done system thinking... I mean WOW

I believe an engineer should be president because they sleep on problems and wake up with solutions. Unlike Mr. Book Author, who brought Eskom to its knees and received a job offer from the USA-a move that raises skepticism-Zuma advocated for nuclear, He was way ahead of everyone, nuclear is the future.

Everyone advocates for nuclear it's just that Zuma's administration had proven itself too corrupt and many people (including businessmen) did not trust him with so much money to carry out the project.

THANK YOU MINISTER, YOU SPEAKING THE TRUTH. IN THE UK ITS HEAT OR EAT IN FREEZING COLD WEATHER, WHILST ENERGY COMPANIES HAVE MADE 800% PROFIT. DO NOT PRIVATISE!!!

I agree with repurposing the INEP use. This will alleviate a lot of pressure on electricity supply from Eskom.

What was the cause for loadshedding. I am asking because it is bafling that now loadshedding seems to be gone, then electricity is so expensive. What is the contribution of much touted cheaper renewables in ameliorating the cost of electricity?

Zuma brought this idea nuclear energy 10 years ago but the environmentalists want to serve rare scorpions

As a company to remain price company, pleaee explore self generation capacity, especially if you are a small business.

I meant price competitive.

Micro grids should work. This will achieve the objectives of universal access and do not punish thise who pay, and i repeat paying upfront. Cash is king guys, let us not firhet that. Actually, prepaid customers should treasured more because they give you cash upfront. It is a simple business principle. If all consumers were on post consumers, most municipalities wold have more cas flow problems, including Eskom. Let us be honest, prepaid customers need appreciation.

Can you start roping in the private individuals in these engagements. There is a lot that private individuals who can provude and assist with, constructively.

You waste our money we want less electricity

Your R200 for meter maintenance you can keep it for yourself.Just to give less units for more money.Skelms

Why does the Ministry of Electricity not take over the electricty distribution from the municipalities to unify the tailriffs charged by Eskom in its aras of distribution and thise chardlged by municipalities.

Experienced load shedding today. What a coincidence.
