NATIONAL NEWS - The generation and distribution of electricity across Eskom’s network are constrained today due to the acts of sabotage and intimidation that characterise the current industrial action by members of the trade unions.
There have been several incidents of road blockades, attacks on staff, and wilful damage of electricity infrastructure. As a result, all road coal deliveries have been stopped for security reasons.
The power stations that are worst-affected by the industrial action are Hendrina, Camden, Kendal, and Arnot.
"We appreciate and thank our employees who continue to work hard to keep the lights on," says a statement by Eskom.
"Eskom will continue to provide regular updates about the state of the power system through various media platforms."
