Updated | By ANA
Eskom said there was no need for loadshedding on Thursday morning, but warned that it was operating a very constrained system.

“Over the past 39 days, we have had only two hours and 20 minutes of loadshedding. And, since it was stage 1 loadshedding, this meant that 96 percent of South Africans still got uninterrupted electricity supply,” Eskom said.
“The power system is stable and no loadshedding is currently taking place. However, the risk remains as we operate a very constrained system that becomes more vulnerable when we experience unplanned events like breakages or sudden increases in demand.”
Eskom warned that as the weather warmed up, electricity usage would become higher because people would use air-conditioners, geysers and pool pumps.
