The power utility says a unit at Lethabo and Majuba was delayed in returning to service and the one in Tutuka tripped. Three Kendal units were also taken off and it is anticipated that the fourth and remaining unit will also be shut down.
Eskom spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsha says, “The conveyor belts supplying these units are currently not running due to a power fault. No coal is reaching the station at this point. We, unfortunately, do expect the load shedding stage to escalate into the weekend as soon as we have a better understanding of when these problems will be resolved.”
Regretfully, Stage 2 loadshedding will be implemented starting at 11:00. A unit at Lethabo and Majuba were delayed in returning to service. A unit at Tutuka tripped
