Eskom has placed its Executive for the Group Capital Division, Abram Masango, on suspension, it announced on Friday morning.
The power utility said it would be launching an investigation into "various allegations of impropriety against him relating to the Kusile Power Station build project".
The suspension is with immediate effect.
"Whilst we recognise his rights to be presumed innocent, however, given the serious nature of the allegations made against him and the seniority of his position in Eskom, the Eskom management took a decision to place him on suspension pending the outcome of the investigation," it said in a media statement."The board and management of Eskom is committed to investigating all allegations of impropriety involving Eskom and to hold those involved accountable as part of restoring good governance in our organisation."
