Eskom Reschedules Electricity Interruptions to three Eastern Cape municipalities – 2024

Wednesday, 13 September 2024: The pending interruptions of bulk electricity supply to three Eastern Cape Municipalities (Raymond Mhlaba, Walter Sisulu and Inxuba Yethemba) that were planned for today, 13 September 2024, have been re-scheduled to Friday, 15 September 2024.  This is to allow the municipalities additional time to make adequate payment or to table firm debt settlement proposals to Eskom.

Eskom has been engaging the municipalities and the provincial government regarding the pending interruptions over the last few days and we are still hopeful that we will be able to find mutually acceptable solutions before Friday, 15 September 2024.

We firmly believe that the interruption of supply to any customer for non-payment is always the option of last resort and we will continue to engage the municipalities over the next 2 days in an attempt to avert the supply interruptions.
