Eskom load-shedding red alert! It's time to switch to gas!

The latest system report from Eskom is a sea of red, with the utility warning that the next 52 weeks are projected to see generation shortfalls of over 2,000MW (2 stages of load shedding) – at minimum.

Code Red is when there is a 2,000+ MW shortfall where both reserves and demand won’t be met, the group said.

On Wednesday, the group warned that demand has exceeded planned levels over the past few days due to a cold front hitting the country. At the same time, units have gone down, and others have been delayed in returning to service.

If these factors aren’t managed, higher stages of load shedding may be necessary.
