Marokane said he looks forward to working with the Eskom team to, among other things, accelerate the implementation of the generation recovery plan and the creation of transmission capacity.
The South African Forestry Company (SAFCOL) CEO previously held positions within the group executives and group capital departments at the ailing power utility.
Several sources within Eskom, including executives, have told Eyewitness News that Marokane is without a doubt a suitable candidate to head the embattled SOE.
