Eskom, CoJ at loggerheads over debt, plans to interrupt Jhb power supply
Power utility Eskom has announced plans to interrupt power supply to the City of Johannesburg (CoJ) at certain pre-determined times of day from next month, citing City Power’s failure to pay R4.9-billion in arrears owed to Eskom.
The CoJ, in response, says Eskom has overbilled City Power and asked Eskom to retract its public notice within five days and “engage in genuine negotiations to resolve the matters constructively”.
