Mteto Nyati, Eskom chairman, discusses the challenges South Africa's power utility, has faced in addressing corruption, inefficiencies, and energy security. Nyati explains the steps Eskom has taken under the new board's leadership, including the use of artificial intelligence and advanced technologies to monitor and manage both internal operations and external factors, such as coal delivery to power stations. The interview sheds light on how Eskom is tackling long-standing issues by leveraging data analytics and innovative solutions, aiming to ensure energy stability while addressing corruption within the company.
In this Q&A session with the BizNews tribe, Eskom chair Mteto Nyati addressed critical issues surrounding South Africa's energy crisis, particularly focusing on the ongoing challenges of loadshedding. He reflected on the company's past struggles, emphasizing the need for a data-driven approach to enhance efficiency and reduce operational costs. Nyati acknowledged the complexities of leadership within Eskom, noting the importance of learning from previous management while prioritizing the identification and resolution of current problems. He also highlighted the commitment of Eskom employees to restore the utility to its former glory, underscoring a collective desire for positive change amidst a turbulent energy landscape. Nyati's insights offer a glimpse into future strategies aimed at stabilizing South Africa's electricity supply and rebuilding public trust in Eskom.
In this debut edition of the BizNews Bulletin, host Alec Hogg takes us through the business news of the day, markets and contributions from David Shapiro, Mteto Nyati and more.
A few months ago Eskom was the black sheep of public opinion, but last month we reported that the utility recorded its highest energy generation levels in six years. It's not out of the woods yet — chairperson Mteto Nyati says they will execute remaining aspects of Eskom's recovery plan. Nyati shares the formula they used to rescue Eskom from the brink of collapse. Two years ago the president roped him in to help save the power utility. Nyati speaks about the plans they implemented to get to where there is no load-shedding for at least 160 consecutive days, the longest period in a while. He, however, is reluctant to say load-shedding has ended. Load-shedding reached its peak in 2022 and last year to beginning of this year. The utility regularly receives financial bailouts from government. Nyati says that will soon end because Eskom will stand on its own feet. “We are saving from last year. Already in this financial year which start[ed] on 1st of April we have saved R10bn on last year.” He talks to our digital politics editor, Lizeka Tandwa, in this episode of the Sunday Times Politics Weekly about the criticality of the leadership change in the company, which included appointing Dan Marokane as CEO and the importance of the executives' relationship with him.

Eskom chairman Mteto Nyati says cynics are wrong to claim it will be back to loadshedding hell after Election'24 on May 29. He reckons SA's longest loadshedding-free run in years is based on a solid foundation. The mechanical engineer with an impeccable business pedigree explains how SA's much improved electricity supply is the result of applying sensible management practices, including performance-related incentives for Eskom staff and productive engagement with its shareholder. He confidently predicts the worst of loadshedding is over, with sufficient capacity coming on stream to support future economic growth. Nyati spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.
The impact of thoughtful leadership. Mteto Nyati is a successful business leader of change and opportunity. During his six-year tenure as CEO of Microsoft South Africa, he transformed the business which grew more than 60% under his leadership. His style embodies a focus on people, customers, and the importance of having an impact. In this Beyond the Blue Badge episode hosted by Sabine Morelock, he shares his driving principles in these areas and how he has not only turned the lights back on for companies and his country, but for people and the community.

This audio is brought to you by Endress and Hauser, a leading supplier of products, solutions and services for industrial process measurement and automation. All the suspensive conditions opening the way for the National Transmission Company of South Africa (NTCSA) to be constituted as a separate, distinct and wholly-owned subsidiary of Eskom Holdings have been met, Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan and Eskom chairperson Mteto Nyati have announced in a joint statement. Still outstanding, however, is the fulfilment of Companies Act requirements, which meant that the April deadline for the full operationalisation of the NTCSA had been missed. It is anticipated that the NTCSA will commence trading about two months after the fulfilment of these requirements. The suspensive conditions that have been met include consent from relevant lenders and creditors, the passing of resolutions by the government and the boards of NTCSA and Eskom, as well as the approvals for electricity licences and other regulatory requirements by the National Energy Regulator of South Africa. "The satisfaction of all the suspensive conditions for the merger agreement between Eskom Holdings and the NTCSA signifies a key development in the government's pursuit of a restructured, competitive and dynamic electricity market that will usher in a secure and reliable energy future for South Africans," Gordhan said, while Nyati described the development as a significant milestone in Eskom's turnaround plan. "The separation of the transmission division from Eskom will now set the NTCSA on the path for operationalisation once the necessary statutory requirements as per the Companies Act have been concluded," Nyati added. The legal separation of Eskom into three entities, namely generation, distribution and transmission, was outlined in the Department of Public Enterprises' 2019 'Roadmap for Eskom in a reformed electricity supply industry' and is also in line with legislative reforms being introduce through amendments to the Electricity Regulation Act, which was passed by the National Assembly last month. Gordhan also appointed the inaugural NTCSA board on January 9. In their statement, Gordhan and Nyati argued that the legal separation of NTCSA would improve business performance, increase lender appetite, and bolster confidence among independent power producers that they would receive fair treatment.

Eskom has escalated load shedding to stage 6 until 05h00 on Monday. The escalation follows warnings all week that the grid is highly volatile and only being kept under control through lower demand and less maintenance. Eskom has experienced a rise in breakdowns over the past few weeks, which forced the group to escalate to stage 4 on Wednesday. According to data compiled by the shedding schedule app EskomSePush, the country has endured over 270 days of load shedding this year. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to Eskom board chairperson Mteto Nyati

Eskom has warned that it is likely to report another R23-billion-plus loss for its current financial year to the end of March 2024, having belatedly confirmed a loss of R24-billion (R12-billion) for its 2022/23 financial year, during which loadshedding was implemented on a record 280 days. Acting CEO Calib Cassim confirmed the dismal outlook during the release of the group's results presentation, held seven months after the group's official year-end. As with several previous reports, the statements were also qualified by the State-owned utility's auditors. The outlook remains clouded by loadshedding, which intensified at the start of the current financial year, with more than 200 days of rotational power cuts having already been implemented since April 1, at times at levels as high as Stage 6. Cassim indicated that it would be a tall order for Eskom not to breach the 280 days of loadshedding declared in 2022/23 during the current financial year. In 2021/22, 65 days of loadshedding were implemented. The poor generating performance was reflected both in a decline in sales volumes and a surge in the cost of running both Eskom's diesel-fuelled open-cycle gas turbines (OCGTs) and those operated by independent power producers (IPPs). Acting CFO Martin Buys reported that sales fell 5% to 188 401 GWh from 198 281 GWh and that sales were expected to fall again in the current financial year to about 185 300 GWh. He reported that OCGT costs across the Eskom and IPP fleet had increased to nearly R30-billion during the period to produce some 4 100 GWh, up from about R15-billion to produce about 2 700 GWh. The average diesel price increased from around R18/l in April 2022 to R23/l by March 2023. Eskom insisted, however, that it would not exceed its R28.5-billion OCGT budget for the current financial year. The sales slump was offset on top line by the fact that Eskom received a 9.61% tariff hike during the year, which supported an increase in revenue to R259.5-billion from R247.5-billion in the prior period. Unit costs of production rose across the board, however, apart from the unit costs of Eskom's renewable-energy purchases, which fell 2%, as the lower-cost plants procured in the more recent public procurement rounds began contributing energy. The group's overall primary energy costs rose to R154.9-billion from R132.9-billion, while production slumped to 217 918 GWh (230 161 GWh), raising overall unit costs to R711/MWh (R578/MWh). Cassim said the tariff award of 18.65% on April 1 this year would not be sufficient to offset the decline in sales and the poor operational performance of the coal fleet for much of the current year. The group's energy availability factor (EAF) fell to 56% during the 2022/23 financial year and until recently breakdowns across the aged coal feel had resulted in an EAF of below the 60% target set for the end of March 2023. A target of 65% has been set for the current financial year. "The financial outlook for 2024 continues to be negatively affected by poor operational performance," Cassim said, while insisting that the Generation Recovery Plan approved by the board at the start of the current financial year was starting to yield improvements. DEBT RELIEF & RESTRUCTURING New chairperson Mteto Nyati said the operational recovery was one of six priorities being pursued by the current board, with the others being: the stabilisation of the leadership team, including the appointment of a new permanent CEO; intensifying the fight against fraud, corruption and criminality; implementing the restructuring of Eskom, including operationalising the National Transmission Company South Africa (NTCSA) by the start of the new financial year; strengthening the balance sheet further following the R254-billion debt-relief package extended by the National Treasury; and intensifying stakeholder management. Nyati reported that the names of three appointable CEOs had been handed to the Public Enterprises Department "last week" and th...

The ruling ANC has elected its top 7 officials, with President Cyril Ramaphosa being given the top position again with a bigger margin than he had achieved in 2017. His appointment has been welcomed by financial markets with the local currency strengthening against the dollar, pound and euro. Mteto Nyati, who is currently the CEO of BSG, a business and technology consulting company told BizNews he welcomed the continuity, stability and policy certainty that the re-election of President Ramaphosa is brought about. A change at presidential level within the ANC, he said, could have have destabilised the efforts that have kind of being driven to turn around or recover Eskom. – Linda van Tilburg Learn more about your ad choices.

Also known as Nyati, mbogo, or simply the "Black Death” Cape buffalo are right up there with kudu in terms of animals that hunters dream of pursuing in Africa. This is for a variety of reasons, but chief among them is the unique feeling of matching wits with a truly dangerous animal on his own turf. Today, I’m going to talk about the cape buffalo: how they’re different from water buffalo, what makes cape buffalo special, and what countries have good cape buffalo hunting.

Mteto Nyati is no stranger to playing ball at the highest level in Africa’s corporate scene. His resume is pretty impressive. Studying at Yale, executive posts and directorships at companies like IBM, Enablis and Blue Label-- to name some, and even being MD of Microsoft South Africa for several years makes him anything but your average corporate animal. In his current role as CEO (Chief Enterprise Officer) for the MTN Group, Mteto continues to live up to his totem-- Nyati, which is Xhosa for “buffalo”, by bullishly challenging the status quo and lending his unique brand of "change-making" to a mobile telecoms business that is ripe for disruption. In this laid-back chat, Mteto unpacks his plans to change "how MTN makes money" and shares how "planning accordingly" makes it possible to overcome the on-going marginalisation of women and non-whites within corporate.
