Question NW3735 to the Minister of Public Enterprises
02 November 2015 - NW3735
Mackay, Mr G to ask the Minister of Public Enterprises
(1) What has been Eskom’s total electricity (a) generation and (b) demand figures for each day since 30 November 2014; (2) was there a decrease in electricity (a) generation and (b) demand in the specified period; if so, what were the reasons for this decrease?
Reply:
(1) Please take note of the following:
- Eskom generation in the Eskom context is the electricity sent out from Eskom power stations plus imports across the border, being mainly the Cahora Bassa imports.
- Customer demand in the Eskom context is the sum of Eskom generation, plus Independent Power Producer (IPP) generation (for IPPs selling their energy to Eskom, including renewables and some conventional generators), plus customer demand actions, being predominantly demand reduced either through contracted Demand Response or Interruptible Load Shedding; or load shedding.
