Eskom's Khulu Phasiwe says they are still investigating the circumstances surrounding the collapse. 


The incident occurred late yesterday afternoon. 


Phasiwe says operations at the power station have been halted to allow for an investigation.


"Today, we have the Portfolio Committee on Energy and Public Enterprises. They will be visiting the power station. So, I'm sure they'll also be [informed] about what has happened and what measures will be put in place to make sure that such incidents do not happen again," he said.
