Johannesburg - There will be no planned power cuts on Tuesday, Eskom said.
“There is currently no load shedding as Eskom has enough generating capacity to meet the demand,” the power utility said in a statement.
“However, the power system is still very constrained and vulnerable, especially during the evening peak period (5pm - 9pm) mainly due to the increased electricity demand and generating units being out of service due to maintenance.”
Eskom said the electricity system remained significantly constrained for the rest of the week.
“This means that the risk of load shedding is very high, especially during evening peak periods. We therefore request that South Africans continue to use electricity sparingly and make this a lifestyle as we are managing a very tight system.”
