When Lourence Chauke took charge at Duvha power station outside Emalahleni at the start of 2021, it was one of Eskom’s worst-performing.  Two years later it hovers in the top six and the Limpopo-born general manager is aiming for the top spot in the rankings by the end of financial 2025.

While the turnaround has already started (“We now hover in the top six on the other, better end of the spectrum”) Chauke has plans to improve further. He joins Thabiso Tema for the conversation.
