The ANC is recommending that utility Eskom delays the decommissioning of its ageing coal-fired power stations to help minimise rolling blackouts, electricity minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa said.

State-owned Eskom is implementing rolling blackouts of about 10 hours a day as it struggles to meet electricity demand. The United States, Britain, France, Germany and the European Union have pledged a combined $8.5 billion investment to back South Africa's plan to phase out fossil fuel use, but President Cyril Ramaphosa has said that the total cost could prove ten times higher.
