BRITS POS – BRITS – Six power stations “require urgent and immediate attention,” due to the anticipated increase in demand for electricity in the upcoming winter months, electricity minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa said recently at a media briefing.
Some power stations, Tutuka, Kendal and Majuba “require urgent and immediate attention,” to be prepared for the higher electricity demand and not to increase the current load-shedding.
It was not disclosed how the planned maintenance would impact the pressure on the grid. Ramokgopa said that Eskom will present its winter load-shedding plan at a later stage.
