Eskom’s coal stocks improve
Date: Jan 10, 2019
Eskom says its coal stocks improved over the festive season.
The power utility also carried out maintenance work at power stations.
In December, CEO Phakamani Hadebe said there were chances that the power utility might be forced to institute Stage 1 load-shedding from 15 January as businesses re-open after the year-end break.
The company, however, says the country’s power grid remains constrained and load-shedding remains a risk as the power utility continues to experience coal shortages.
