Zambia’s Electricity Distribution Company (ZESCO) says its team of engineers are working hard to restore power supply in areas currently without electricity.
Several parts of the country experienced power outages on Saturday following system disturbances in the Zambian Interconnected Power System, resulting in loss of generation.
In a statement, the company said its preliminary investigations indicated that the cause of the disturbance was external to the Zambian Interconnected Power System.
The company said further investigations are still underway to establish the cause of the loss of generation and subsequent nationwide blackout.
The company expressed deep regret for the development and promised to keep its customers and public informed on the ongoing restoration exercise.
