Eskom has expressed concern over the fake news circulating on social media about loadshedding resuming on May 30, 2024.
According to a Facebook statement made by Eskom, loadshedding has been suspended for 62 consecutive days and continues to be suspended.
“The previous Power Alert issued by Eskom was on May 24 2024, where Eskom announced the continued suspension of loadshedding,” the post said.
“Our generation availability continues to perform well as a result of the Generation Recovery Plan that commenced in March 2023, as well as our intensive planned maintenance.
“Unplanned outages are averaging at 12 500MW, below what was anticipated for our winter outlook,” the Facebook statement added.
“The energy availability factor (EAF) of four of our power stations is performing above 70%. Our year-to-date EAF is improving gradually and is currently at 60.73%.”
