No load shedding today – Eskom

There are no planned power cuts for Monday.

THERE will not be no power cuts as a result of the Majuba power station crisis anywhere in the country on Monday, Eskom said.

‘There will be no load shedding today. We managed to restore coal supplies to two of the six units at the Majuba power station. This means that one third of the power station’s normal capacity is back in service,’ said spokesman Andrew Etzinger.

‘As a result Eskom is not needing to implement load shedding during the day. However, the power system remains under pressure and consumers are urged to use electricity sparingly for the remainder of the week’.

A coal storage silo at the Majuba power station in Mpumalanga cracked on Saturday and later collapsed. Etzinger said as a result coal conveyor systems were damaged.
