Eskom rejects the warning by the VGBe Consortium that a water treatment plant failure could result in a significant loss of generation capacity.
The warning by the VGBe Consortium of technical experts appointed by National Treasury that 9 800MW of generation capacity could be lost to the grid at once if a dodgy water treatment plant that serves Medupi and its neighbouring power station Matimba fails is nonsense, according to Eskom .
