Load-shedding will be suspended tonight, despite total outages increasing since Thursday.
The power utility’s announcement follows the return-to-service of several generation units earlier in the week. Eskom expects to return an additional nine units to the grid over the weekend.
“Eskom would like to again caution that even with the return to service of these units, the power system remains severely constrained and volatile,” it said in a statement. Notably, Eskom decided to suspend load-shedding despite total outages having increased by 790MW since Thursday.
