ZESA Holdings has announced a significant reduction in electricity generation capacity across the national power grid.
In a statement, ZESA announced that the problem stemmed from a technical fault at Hwange Power Station, coupled with diminished output from the Kariba Power Station due to critically low water levels.
“ZESA Holdings would like to advise its valued stakeholders that the national power grid is currently experiencing reduced electricity generation capacity due to a technical fault at Hwange Power Station.
“This has been further compounded by low generation capacity at Kariba Power Station, resulting from low water levels,” said the power utility.
ZESA said its technical team was working to resolve the fault at Hwange to minimise the impact on customers.
