LOAD SHEDDING NEWS - After more than 10 months of uninterrupted electricity supply due to the success of the Generation Recovery Plan, Eskom has issued an alert indicating a high risk of load shedding at short notice.
“This is a potentially temporary setback. Load shedding is largely behind us due to the structural improvements in our generation fleet,” Eskom spokeperson Daphne Mokwena said.
“However, over the past seven days, we have experienced several breakdowns that require extended repair times.

Eskom Group Chief Executive, Dan Maroka said this has necessitated the use of Eskom’s emergency reserves, which now need to be replenished.
“Consequently, we are closely monitoring the status of our current emergency reserves, and load shedding up to Stage 4 may be implemented over the weekend.” said Maroka.
