Less load shedding, for now

Public to still use electricity sparingly.

Eskom has announced yesterday that rotational power cuts would decrease as of last night.

According to Eskom spokesperson Andrew Etzinger improvements to the power grid comes as the dams, that the power utility uses to generate electricity, were nearly full and maintenance is done.

“We need them to be full in order to minimise load shedding for the coming week,” he said.

Etzinger also urged people to use electricity sparingly.

“Eskom calls on consumers to urgently switch off geysers, air conditioners, pool pumps and all non-essential appliances throughout the day to alleviate the pressure on the system and limit the need for rotational load shedding,” said Etzinger.
