Lusanda Bill

South Africans could be facing another series of blackouts as from next year.
Energy services company Manoa said the economic slowdown in the economy temporarily saved South Africa from even worse blackouts than those experience two years ago.
South Africans experienced blackouts in January 2008, concerns are being raised about delays in the construction of Eskom’s Medupi Power Station which is due to come online in April 2012.
Manoa director Esmé Bluf said “Normally because January is a very rainy season we could look at the potential of it happening again in January but it is more likely to happen in winter time when we use more due to the cold weather”.
