Article highlights:

  • South Africa faces another 18 months of regular load shedding and won’t be able to end them until sufficient generating capacity is added to the electricity grid to meet demand.
  • Work that Eskom has done to alleviate the country’s energy crisis will help ensure the situation won’t be as dire as it might have been.
  • Still, it may be necessary for the utility to implement Stage 2 load-shedding.
