Earlier on Monday Eskom postponed its media briefing scheduled for the afternoon because of an emergency engagement with President Cyril Ramaphosa who cancelled his trip to the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland.
Unfortunately this afternoon’s media briefing is postponed due to emergency engagements with the President. A new date and time can only be confirmed once meetings with the President are concluded.
In the meantime a power alert with regards to loadshedding will be published
