Dukashe has worked at Eskom for 26 years.
He has gained experience as a seasoned Power Station General Manager and acted as Group Executive Generation prior to his appointment.
"Phillip’s vast institutional knowledge, cross functional skills and sound executive leadership experience created the much-needed stability in the Generation division during his tenure and achieved some significant strides in helping to turn around generation's poor performance since his permanent appointment into the position from April 2021," adds Matshantsha.
