Eskom listed the following issues/challenges identified from their side; . The community was not properly informed on the employment processes followed resulting in work stoppages . Some of the SWH developed leaks as the unit are designed for a maximum of six bar pressure and the water pressure in the area fluctuated above and below this. . A lack of capacity from suppliers resulted in stoppages . Eskom needs to ensure that proper planning is done and that the municipality and Councillors are involved. . There were some technical problems with units . The high content of calcium carbide in the water also resulted in damage to units . There needs to be feasibility studies done to assess the challenges that lay ahead . There also needs to be an assessment of the roof structures as some cannot hold the weight of the units . Eskom needs to re-engage with the DoE for cost of maintenance of geysers Finally Eskom noted that these projects must involve the communities and communication is critical
