Eskom suspends power cuts early, calls on consumers to use less electricity

South Africans will have to wait to hear what the week holds after Eskom suspended its rolling blackouts earlier than expected on Sunday night.

The utility called off the rotational blackouts at 9 pm, citing sufficient recovery in generation capacity.

Power cuts were implemented last week after several breakdowns at our power plants and a shortage of fuel reserves.

The power utility’s spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsa: “The period of load shedding assisted us in replenishing the emergency generation reserves in anticipation ahead. Since Saturday morning, Eskom teams have returned nine generating units to service, helping to ease the capacity constraints.”

Eskom is still asking you to help limit the need for power cuts by using less of the only service it provides.
