Most of our coal-fired power stations, including Medupi and Kusile, will remain in operation and will continue to provide the βbase loadβ supply. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
This is necessary not only to reduce carbon emissions, but to address the deteriorating performance of older coal plants which are nearing their end of life. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
In terms of the IRP19, several coal-fired power stations are due to be decommissioned between now and 2030. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org

We must not forget that South Africaβs future mix of energy sources is outlined in the Integrated Resource Plan 2019. It envisages a diversity of energy sources, including coal, renewables, nuclear, gas and storage. https://t.co/NS7pmRu9Lu — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We also need to address the perception that we are called on to make a trade-off between energy security and a just transition to a low-carbon economy; that we must make a choice between coal and renewable energy. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org

Eskom has intensified its maintenance programme to reduce unplanned breakdowns and extend the life of power plants. Maintenance is crucial for energy security and this has meant that more generating capacity is taken off-line to be maintained. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We need to explain that, in addition to the historical reasons for load shedding, another factor contributing to the current levels of #loadshedding is #Eskomβs effort to correct the mistakes of the past. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
A team of independent experts has been established to work closely with Eskom to diagnose the problems and take action to improve plant performance, particularly at the six power stations with the most breakdowns. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We have cut red tape and streamlined regulatory processes, reducing the timeframe for environmental authorisations, registration of new projects and grid connection approvals. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Eskom has also launched a programme to purchase up to 1,000 MW of power from companies with existing generation capacity. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
An additional 300 MW has been imported through the Southern African Power Pool, and negotiations are underway to secure a potential 1,000 MW from neighbouring countries. https://t.co/HZoHMa1meu — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We have signed agreements with independent power producers for 26 renewable energy projects, which together will generate around 2,800 MW. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We expect the first of these projects to connect to the grid by the end of this year. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We have removed the licensing requirement for embedded generation projects. As a result, the pipeline of private sector projects has grown to more than 100 projects with over 9,000 MW of capacity. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org

The National Energy Crisis Committee and Eskom led these briefings to update stakeholders on progress made in implementing the July 2022 Energy Action Plan and outline the work currently underway to accelerate this work. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Government has been holding briefings with a number of stakeholders over the past two weeks. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Critical services like water provision, health care and education are disrupted. Persistent loadshedding also adds to safety and security concerns, especially in areas plagued by gangsterism and other criminality. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
As a result of loadshedding, companies are reluctant to invest, productivity is dampened, economic growth cannot be sustained and jobs cannot be created on the necessary scale. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Resolving the #energy crisis and putting an end to loadshedding is one of our most immediate and pressing challenges. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org

Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Our movement must represent the best in society and we must become more responsive, well-governed, well-resourced, ethical and caring. The people must see us reflecting the legacy of our heroes and heroines in our words and actions. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
A necessary step of renewing the movement is rebuilding vibrant and strong ANC branches that are active in the life of communities. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
In addition, deployed cadres and the public service must contribute to building national unity through serving the people diligently, with integrity and distinction. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Building unity starts with NEC members who must be activists, disciplined and in touch with the people and extends to leaders at all levels. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We must unite our movement and move beyond the factional considerations and contestations that have plagued our organisation in recent years. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Only an ANC that is united, strong and vibrant can effectively address the needs of the people and advance the National Democratic Revolution. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
The renewal and rebuilding of our movement is non-negotiable and we must ensure that it is irreversible. This is an existential issue; if we donβt renew our movement, it will perish. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Through our actions now, we need to send a clear signal to voters that the ANC is taking all necessary steps to deal with the challenges they confront, specifically unemployment, rising cost of living, crime and instability, and poor service delivery. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Although no party has had an official launch, the campaigns for the 2024 elections are well underway. We need to get into election mode without delay. https://t.co/3jSAttqSoi — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
The outcome of that election will have profound implications for the direction of the National Democratic Revolution and the future of our country. — PolitiTweet.org
