The South African Wind Energy Association has called for the immediate release of available wind power into the national grid, as the country continues to face daily load-shedding. After days of implementing Stage 1 to Stage 4 power cuts, State-owned Eskom on Monday evening implemented unprecedented Stage 6 power cuts after the heavy rainfall in some areas of the country exacerbated the already constrained power supply situation. It pointed out that the probability for load-shedding remained high for the remainder of this week.
