Eskom said there was also a complete shutdown of the Kendal power station ash plant due to an electrical fault.
“This required the station’s output to be reduced to minimum. The ash plant has since returned to service, and the ash backlog recovery is in progress.” Eskom said these constraints, together with higher demand on Friday and Saturday, have resulted in extensive use of emergency generation reserves, “which will have to be sufficiently recovered for the week ahead”.
It added: “Total breakdowns have increased to 14,727MW while planned maintenance is 6,711MW of capacity as we continue with the reliability maintenance. “Eskom appeals to all South Africans to help reduce the usage of electricity by switching off non-essential items in order to help us through these constraints.TimesLIVE
