Eskom is pleading with the public to reduce the usage of electricity as the power system is under severe pressure, which may lead to a high probability of load shedding.
“A shortage of generation capacity, caused by
breakdowns in generation units and delays in others returning to service, has
resulted in supply constraints,” the power utility said in a statement.
While no load shedding is expected at this
point, Eskom warned that it could be forced to implement stage one or two at
short notice between 5pm and 10pm on Tuesday evening should any further
breakdowns occur.
“Your assistance in these difficult times has
always made a difference. Eskom would like to appeal to the public to help the
country get through these constraints by reducing the usage of electricity.”
