Show Notes

Eskoms profits surge amidst power generation drop and soaring electricity prices in South Africa. Despite selling less power, the national utility posted profits for two consecutive years, with revenue up 3.4% year-to-date. Experts attribute this to massive tariff hikes, which have increased electricity prices by over 150% in the past two decades. However, these steep costs are burdening households and businesses, and relying on bailouts and hikes may keep the model unsustainable.
