MIND OF THE MANAGER - RECHARGING ESKOM - WITH ESKOM CHAIRPERSON, MTETO NYATI
As South Africa approached the election period, the nation faced intermittent power outages and significant uncertainty. Amidst this challenging backdrop, Mteto Nyati stepped into the role of Eskom Chairperson – a role where many had previously failed. His efforts not only provided a temporary solution to Eskom's issues but also laid the foundation for the long-term stability of the grid. In this webinar, Chief Investment Officer Nick Balkin delves into Mr. Nyati's personal journey prior to joining Eskom, explores his motivations for accepting the position, the strategies he implemented to address the energy crisis, the current status of Eskom and ongoing efforts to ensure a sustainable and reliable energy future for South Africa.
