President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to address the nation soon on Eskom and load-shedding, his spokesperson Vincent Magwenya said on Thursday.

Mangenya confirmed Ramaphosa is working on a plan to reduce the scale of rolling blackouts.

“Not just a plan, but a plan that can give some hope that even if the president does not say that load-shedding will not end tomorrow, the nation must have a sense that there is a credible plan that’s been worked on. It is sound and there is a sense of urgency to implement that plan.”

Ramaphosa has been under pressure to formulate a solution that will see an end to load-shedding which has cost the country billions.
