The Nelson Mandela Bay Business Chamber (NMBBC) says yet another protracted power outage has occurred in the Eastern Cape metro, this time owing to the collapse of the Chelsea/Arlington 132 kV lattice tower. “This once again highlights the critical impact of the lack of adequate and routine maintenance of the metro’s electricity infrastructure over many years, and the very serious consequences it has on the lives of communities and the continuity of business operations,” says CEO Denise van Huyssteen.
