Load-shedding expected as Eskom down to using emergency resources

Troubled state power utility Eskom said it would cut power for the second consecutive night on Wednesday to allow emergency reserves to be replenished to levels that can meet daytime demand.

It had already cut power overnight on Tuesday, and said it would need to do the same again after a further loss of generation capacity meant emergency reserves had to be used during the daytime. It said up to 2,000MW would be cut from the system from 9pm to 8am, adding that the power system was still “constrained and vulnerable” with 13,534MW of its 44,000MW total nominal capacity offline due to breakdowns.
