Micro and medium-sized enterprises can’t afford generators and may have to shut up shop.

UASA spokesperson Stanford Mazhindu said micro businesses were hit hardest as many could not afford generators. Micro and medium-sized business employers would soon be unable to afford to pay staff and more South Africans would join the masses of the unemployed. “There is now talk of implementing Stage 5 and 6 load shedding. Clearly the power utility has no idea how to resolve its current issues. Gordhan and Eskom need to develop a clear idea of what is needed to resolve the crisis before it is too late.”
