Minister Ramokgopa Announces Interventions to End Load Reduction in South Africa | MDNtv Live

MDNtv — Thu, 25 Sep 2025 04:42:10 +0000

Minister of Electricity and Energy, Dr. Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, briefs the nation on new interventions to end load reduction — a measure that has disrupted electricity supply in many communities.

With load shedding now largely behind us, the government’s attention turns to tackling load reduction, which occurs when local networks are overloaded due to illegal connections, high demand, and infrastructure strain.

In this media briefing, Minister Ramokgopa explains:

The difference between load shedding and load reduction

Why load reduction affects specific communities

The urgent interventions being rolled out to stabilise local networks

Plans to permanently end load reduction in South Africa

Stay tuned to MDNtv – People-Driven News You Can Trust for full coverage.
