Eskom says the outages are also due to a loss of additional power generating units in the country.
Eskom Acting Head of Generation, Andrew Etzinger says the power cuts were a result of plant breakdown and loss of imports from Mozambique due to cyclone Idai. “At the moment, we are implementing Stage 3 loadshedding, but we will need to move to Stage 4 unfortunately from 12 o clock midday. This is as a result of the loss of imports from supplies station in Mozambique. We understand the cyclone which is moving over the country has taken down the transition months between the power station and Eskom which unfortunately meant the loss over 1000 megawatts of capacity.
means loadshedding will occur 12 times over a 4 day period for 2 hours at a time, or over an 8 day period for 4 hours at a time. South Africans are reacting with anger, fury and disbelief on social media platforms, with some blaming corruption and mismanagement at the power utility for the outages.They are just using it as an excuse. Eskom is a failure, we should start asking solar developers to make solar available on contract basis. Let’s all rid ourselves from this
So he will meet them every time there's loadshed and what did they discuss the last time? I think this pharmacist is out of his depth.
Loadshedding_SA This prick is a jumpstarter, it will run for a few days untill they turn their backs.
5hours later and no outcome.... No LIGHTS at the end of the tunnel. eskom Pravin Gordon left in the DARK
Again?
