Summary
Johannesburg just paid a massive 4.3 billion rand to settle its overdue electricity bill with Eskom, but the debt isn’t fully cleared — over 3.8 billion rand still remains. The city was ordered to pay after missing payments since October 2023, and Eskom even threatened to cut power over a 5.2 billion rand debt. While the city has committed to paying more than 5.1 billion by August 26, Eskom warns that timely payments are still critical to avoid further disruptions.
