June 2021 Ekurhuleni Load shedding

Eskom issued a statement today that on numerous occasions it requested the City of Ekurhuleni to rectify the violation of its loadshedding requirements following the parties’ electricity supply agreement.

“It has yielded very little success, with the municipality continuously failing to implement the required loadshedding in its areas of supply,” Eskom stated.

“In compliance with Nersa requirements, since Monday, May 31, Eskom has reduced the required load from the City of Ekurhuleni’s respective points of supply.

“Yesterday, the CoE acknowledged that they were unable to implement loadshedding as required.

“Consequently, and as an interim measure, the CoE requested Eskom, which has agreed, to continue implementing load shedding in the city’s licensed area of supply. The CoE further agreed to communicate this arrangement with Eskom to the municipality’s customers, and to publish the revised load shedding schedules.
“Customers from the City of Ekurhuleni are urged to contact the municipality directly regarding this matter,” said Kotze.
