Public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan has once again not guaranteed that there will not be load-shedding in the future
The minister explained that planning for the looming winter was complete, adding that a nine-month plan had been developed to address problems in the short- and long-term period.He said to achieve this aim, there had to be commitment to deliver and accountability by management at the state-owned power utility.
SA faced one of its worst load-shedding last month as the intense tropical cyclone Idai lashed Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe. SA is dependent on electricity imports from neighbouring countries that a loss of 1,100MW from Mozambique forced Eskom to implement stage 4 load-shedding.
