Eskom started implementing
stage one load shedding at six o clock this morning due to a shortage of
generating capacity.
The power utility said several of its
generating units are currently out of service as they are undergoing
maintenance.
Customers have been urged to
safe electricity whenever they can.
Eskom Spokesperson Khulu
Phasiwe says some of our generating units are not operating at this stage.
“This is also compounded by
the fact that some of our generating units especially in the Cape Town area,
the ones that are using diesel, we currently have been using them for long
duration of hours and therefore we need to replenish these resources, so that
we keep the lights on, Phasiwe added.
