Eskom board Chairperson Jabu Mabuza says the power utility fully understands how load shedding is affecting its consumers. The cut was the largest since Eskom introduced rolling blackouts in 2008. The move followed what Eskom described as unprecedented heavy rain and flooding that triggered failures at the power utility’s Medupi plant.
“The effect is – it flooded all our open cast mines. It has flooded some of our mines, we had to shut down Camden as the whole power station was flooded and the impact of rain also manifests on the coal side. So these rains have been unprecedented.” “For now in terms of Stage 6 this will continue until 11 o’clock this evening. However, we must inform customers that we’re likely to continue with load shedding, that at what stage we’ll be in a better position to advise later on this evening once we’ve seen how the system has performed up until the evening.”Business owners in the North West are feeling the pinch of load shedding.
“Last week I lost more R7000. Load shedding is affecting us and now we are on festive season and I lost so many customers.”
During and after WWII most European nations had no electricity. However, instead of spewing useless crap between each other like most do these days on social media, people worked together, out of the rubble and created sustainable economy’s and energy. SAonROADtoNOWHERE
