To South Africa, where Eskom has begun load reduction in several provinces, including Limpopo, the Western and Eastern Cape, Gauteng, Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal, and North West, due to increased network overloading with the onset of winter. Spokesperson Daphne Mokwena emphasized that load reduction differs from load-shedding, as Eskom currently has sufficient generating capacity to meet national electricity demand.
