Zimbabwean power utility, Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority needs US$15 million to replace vandalised equipment. The power utility which is believed to be planning to intensify load shedding is attributing unscheduled power cuts to vandalism.
ZESA’s subsidiary company, the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC) revealed on Twitter that about 30 000 households are being affected by unscheduled power cuts countrywide. ZETDC said:
Up to 30 000 households are without power due to vandalism of about 4 000 transformers, cables and associated materials. ZETDC needs about USD15 million to replace the stolen materials.
FeedbackThe power company also forewarned members of the public of a possibility to increase load-shedding hours. The power utility said:The published load shedding schedule is a guide for planning purposes & is not fixed. If supplies improve on a given day, the shedding will be shorter than stipulated and if supply deteriorates, then shedding will be longer than advertised.
