Eskom says shutting down the plant will not have a significant impact on national supply. While some of the station’s workers will be upskilled, others will lose their jobs. Eskom is already failing to generate power sufficient for the whole of South Africa. Resultantly, the power utility has in recent years rolled out load-shedding to manage the crisis. The beleaguered power utility this Friday extended rolling blackouts until Monday saying Stage 1 power cuts will be implemented during the day while Stage 2 will kick in from 4 pm until 5 am. In July this year, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that the South African government was considering importing electricity from Zambia to meet its power needs. Zambia recently declared a surplus of 1 156.8 megawatts following the commissioning of four out of five generators at its 750-megawatt Kafue Lower Gorge Power Station. Zambia is also set to supply Zimbabwe, another southern African country experiencing acute power shortages due to ageing equipment. *More Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
