Eskom announced that there won’t be any load shedding this long weekend.
In a statement, the ailing power utility said
that it will use the lower demand opportunity to replenish the emergency
generation reserves in preparation for the higher demand expected during
January as economic activity resumes.
It added that during this period, Eskom will
also continue to pursue increased reliability maintenance as planned.
It admitted that while this will put pressure
on the generation plant, maintenance is necessary in order to improve power
stations.
Furthermore, Eskom has urged consumers to use
electricity sparingly, as what it says, the system remains, vulnerable and
unstable.
