Eskom says it is improving the electricity infrastructure in the Central Karoo in the Western Cape.
According to the power utility, the electricity will be supplied to towns
including Sutherland, Roggeveld, Laingsburg, LadIsmith, and Prince Albert.
This comes after a powerful storm that shut electricity for up to two weeks in some areas and damaged vital infrastructure.
According to Mbulelo Yedwa, the
general manager of the Cape Coastal Cluster, Eskom will keep making investments
in electrical infrastructure and putting policies in place to lessen the
effects of extreme weather events
“In addition to the
restoration of supply, Eskom’s technical teams have been working diligently working
to create an additional alternative supply to ensure a contingency in future,
this contingency will be in full operation by the end of this week”, said general
manager of the Cape Coastal Cluster Mbulelo Yedwa
