No load shedding expected today, for now
The probability of load shedding today and Tuesday is low.
Eskom said that its system is showing signs of improvement with their teams working around the clock to bring generation units back online.
However, the power utility cautioned the public to use electricity sparingly with the demand expected to increase this week as schools re-open.
"The power system is tight this morning, but we are working hard to stabilise our generation fleet in order to ensure we meet today's demand".
"We expect some units to come back online during the day and we have adequate reserves for our emergency generators".
