Since then, there have been several instances of load shedding, some due to unit breakdowns at the utility’s power stations.
Speaking to the media on the sidelines of the African National Congress (ANC)’s national executive committee (NEC) meeting in Boksburg on Saturday, Ramokgopa said he’s confident the end of load shedding is on the horizon.
“I’m confident that we could be on another great run and in this run of consecutive days of no load shedding, I’m confident that I’ll come back to the country that load shedding is behind us.”
