Johannesburg threatens legal action against Eskom over power supply disruption

Johannesburg has expressed strong criticism towards Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd. for its threat to cut power supply over unpaid bills.

The city’s officials announced plans to pursue legal action against the state-owned power utility, which has cited a significant amount in outstanding debt owed by the City of Johannesburg and its distribution company.

Eskom's warning has raised concerns about the potential impact on the economic hub, which relies heavily on consistent power supply for its operations.

The situation underscores ongoing financial tensions between the municipality and the power provider, as Johannesburg seeks to address the significant arrears while ensuring uninterrupted service to its residents and businesses.
