# National Treasury says government will ensure that the Eskom unbundling process is carefully sequenced and managed to address all risks. Work is ongoing to transfer ownership and control of the power utility’s grid assets to an independent Transmission System Operator. The TSO will oversee system and market operations and support the development of a competitive wholesale electricity market. Treasury’s director-general Duncan Pieterse says the transaction will be structured so Eskom is not worse off, the transmission entity is financially sustainable, and the fiscal strategy remains on track.
