Eskom suspends disconnections of five Northern Cape Municipalities | News Article

Kimberley - Eskom has suspended disconnections of five Northern Cape Municipalities.

The power supply to Magareng, Thembelihle, Ubuntu, Dikgatlong and Renosterberg was to be discontinued until the municipalities settled their debt.

However, in a statement released by the Eskom Media Desk, it was stated that the supply will no longer be interrupted after an urgent court application was brought against Eskom.

The electricity supplier further says that Eskom has not reached sustainable payment arrangements with the five defaulting municipalities and that revenue collection still remains a priority to the entity and they will continue with all the necessary actions to ensure that the municipal debt levels in the Northern Cape are under control.
