Unit One at Eskom’s Koeberg Power Station will be shut down early today for maintenance.

The utility says the unit will be unavailable to generate electricity for a minimum of three weeks.

Eskom says it is confident that the supply of electricity to the Western Cape and South Africa in general will not be affected by the shut down.

Eskom says the power loss will be taken up by other power stations. It is for the second time the Unit One at Koeberg has been shut down this year.
