Western Cape doesn't have to rely only on Eskom - DA's Mazzone | Fin24
The Democratic Alliance has a power procurement strategy that could shield South Africans from load shedding as early as the day after the elections, DA MP Natasha Mazzone told reporters in Cape Town on Wednesday.
"The strategy that the DA has [...] could allow a DA-led government to get energy security as soon as May 9. "Some municipalities, particularly Metros, have old power stations that are currently in various levels of capability to generate electricity," said Radebe. "[The stations]… represent an opportunity for municipalities to increase revenues at the same time as improving the country’s electricity system reserve margin," he saidMazzone introduced the Independent System and Market Operator bill in Parliament earlier this year.
