The Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority (Zesa) has resumed rehabilitation work at Kariba South Hydro Power Station, after suspending the work during the festive season to reduce load-shedding.
In a statement on Tuesday, the power utility said:
“Zesa Holdings would like to advise its valued stakeholders countrywide on the resumption of rehabilitation works for the Kariba Dam Rehabilitation project.
“The works had been temporarily shelved effective the 16th of December 2021, resulting in minimal load-shedding during the festive season.”
Zesa said some units at the Kariba South Power Station will be taken out of service daily to allow for completion of critical works on the dam wall, resulting in reduced generation levels and load curtailment.
The Authority expects the rehabilitation work to be completed by January 25, 2022.
