 South Africa's Ramaphosa says end to power cuts 'within reach'


Cyril Ramaphosa used a state of the nation address to highlight steps taken to address the prolonged energy crisis.


South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has said that an end to crippling power cuts was "within reach" and pledged thousands of new jobs in a key speech ahead of knife-edge elections this year.


With his historically dominant African National Congress (ANC) party struggling in the polls, Ramaphosa used a state of the nation address on Thursday to highlight steps taken to address the prolonged energy crisis that has vexed businesses and families alike.


"We are confident that the worst is behind us and the end of load shedding is finally within reach," he said using the local term for blackouts in a speech to lawmakers at Cape Town City Hall.


"But we are not stopping there," he added, touting new reforms and investments including more than 14,000 kilometres (8,700 miles) of new transmission lines to accommodate renewable energy to be rolled out in the coming years.
