Cape Town’s three-phase loadshedding protection plan on track

Cape Town Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis says the City of Cape Town is on track with plans to protect residents from the first four stages of loadshedding implemented by State-owned utility Eskom within three years. The three-phase procurement plan for loadshedding protection has reached several milestones this month. The largest procurement – a 500 MW tender to buy power on the open market – is on track to open on March 29.
