High risk of load shedding for next few days, Eskom warns

"The risk of load shedding remains high for the next few days, but it will only be implemented if absolutely necessary," Eskom said in a statement.

"The power system remains tight and vulnerable and while Eskom is making every effort to return generating units online in order to limit load shedding, it could be implemented at short notice should there be a significant shift in plant performance. This could include a significant loss in generating plant due to unplanned technical breakdowns.
