Eskom issues load shedding alert
South Africans could be in for another bout of load shedding, Eskom has warned. The power utility tweeted that there is a medium to high probability of power cuts on Friday “as the system is constrained and vulnerable”.
In a notice on its Facebook page issued just after 06:00, it said: “Eskom will communicate later today whether #load_shedding will be implemented over the weekend. We appreciate your assistance in using electricity sparingly.”
Electricity was produced for the first time on Monday from the first of Medupi power station’s six units to be synchronised.
