Eskom says the power utility does not expect to have to implement load-shedding as the country moves through the end of summer into winter, its CEO Brian Molefe confirmed.

Molefe says Eskom has been briefing Parliament's public enterprises committee this morning.

He adds that Eskom's planned maintenance programme means the country has gone more than 6 months without load shedding.


Last month Molefe said the utility is on track with its projected maintenance and it will continue working to generate more capacity on the grid.
