Eskom will not implement load shedding today

Eskom says the power system is currently stable and, as a result, no load shedding will be implemented.

The parastatal says the stability of the system has enabled technicians to carry out the requisite maintenance of the power generating units.

It says its maintenance plan is aimed at increasing the reliability of its plant, and this will in turn increase its operating reserves and stabilise the grid.


“Eskom actually is not a load shedding company. We do not plan load shedding. We do not want to implement load shedding. It only happens when there is more demand than supply.” Eskom spokesperson Khulu Phasiwe said.
