Eskom load-shedding warning

President Cyril Ramaphosa, Electricity and Energy Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, Eskom CEO Dan Marokane, and energy experts warned that load-shedding could return.

Former Reserve Bank deputy governor Kuben Naidoo warned that load-shedding will be reintroduced once the mining industry begins to ramp up production.

“I think half of the reason we don’t have load shedding is because the mining sector is in a deep recession,” Naidoo said.

“If you switch on the mining sector, load-shedding will return, so we still need to continue investing in renewable energy and other energy sources to break that constraint.”

So, Eskom hasn't really been doing much behind the scenes, just one of the biggest users of electricity has been quiet.
