is estimated to cost South Africa around R2 billion per day in lost production among other things. Gordhan says Eskom needs to place greater urgency on acquiring equipment for plant maintenance and has acknowledged that stage 4 loadshedding is not acceptable as the country battles to grow the economy.Earlier on Sunday President Cyril Ramaphosa has acknowledged that loadshedding has caused major disruptions in the country.
“The current loadshedding was caused by the cyclone. We have already sent the defence force to try and see what we can do there. This is happening at a time when Eskom is going through challenges and we are very sorry to South Africans.” Energy analyst Chris Yelland says small scale domestic and business solar power installations could alleviate pressure on the grid.“A number of applications for small scale generations have been held up at the regulator’s office. It’s something that must be done quickly and it would unlock more power and would cost Eskom nothing.”
