Five units have been restored since Friday morning, which had “positively shifted system performance” and led to suspension of load-shedding on Sunday. Peter Attard-Montalto, head of Capital Markets Research at Intellidex said,"The coming week should see only low stages of load-shedding and possibly only at the end of the week."
Bernard Swanepoel, SBI’s executive director said that some members were sharing “painful stories”of the impact of load-shedding. A shisanyama owner lost R8,000 worth of meat due to lack of refrigeration during the power cuts.
