ZESA Holdings announced that it experienced a system glitch that caused the giant Hwange Power Station to go off the grid yesterday morning, but it is working hard to correct the problem.
In a statement yesterday, Zisa said the disruption led to increased load shedding.
“Zesa Holdings would like to inform its valued customers that National Grid experienced a system disturbance this morning at 9.38am resulting in loss of generation at Hwange Power Station.
“This has led to further load shedding across the country. Our engineers are working hard to ensure that service is restored in the shortest possible time,” the power company said.
