It is not the end. In September, President Cyril Ramaphosa said Eskom would need an additional R33 billion to complete Medupi and Kusile.
Eskom’s Medupi and Kusile projects have been fraught with challenges, ranging from corruption and negligence to a flawed design process.

Last week, Busi Mavuso, an Eskom non-executive director may have thrown down a bigger challenge to the government than she had initially thought.
