Sisaqhubeka sifumana imingeni ngobonelelo lwethu lombane. Nasi isizathu, kwaye yintoni eyenziwayo ukuphucula imeko. Umbane wethu uvela kwa-Eskom udlula kumzila weekhilomitha ezili-130 obizwa ngokuba yiFarmers Line 2, eqala eLeeu Gamka. “T” ukusuka kulo mgca ukuya e-PA ziikhilomitha ezingama-50 ukusuka e-Leeu Gamka. Lo mgca unegunya phezu kwabasebenzisi abangama-30, kuquka nedolophu yethu. Ukubanjwa? Ukuba kukho into engahambi kakuhle naphi na kule feeder iyonke, inokunkqonkqoza amandla kuye wonke umntu, kubandakanya i-PA. Ngenxa yemibhobhozo yomhlaba ecaleni kwendlela, ukuchonga unobangela weziphene kunokuba ngumngeni kwaye kudle ixesha.
Ukusilela kummandla woxanduva lukaEskom
Ukusukela ngomhla woku-1 kuSeptemba 2024 ukuya kumhla we-12 kuFebruwari ka-2025, siye sacinywa yi-Eskom izihlandlo ezili-14, ezithatha naphi na ukusuka kwimizuzwana eli-10 ukuya phantse kwiiyure ezi-6. Nantsi into ebabangelayo: Imiba yokusingqongileyo:
- Ukubetha kwemibane, imililo, imimoya enamandla, njl.
- Ukonakalisa kunye nobusela: Umonakalo obangelwa zizenzo zolwaphulo-mthetho.
- Iziseko ezingundoqo ezigugayo: Izixhobo ezigugileyo kunye nezakhiwo.
Ukusilela kwinkalo yoxanduva lukamasipala
Ukusilela kobonelelo lombane phantsi kukamasipala kungahlelwa ngokweendidi ezimbini:
- Iimpazamo zexesha elifutshane: Zibangelwa ngamasebe emithi abamba iintambo zombane ngexesha lomoya onamandla okanye imvula. Ezi mpazamo zisonjululwa ngokunika amandla kwakhona izaphuli ezifanelekileyo. Malunga nohambo olunjalo lwe-20 lwenzeka ikakhulu kwi-South End kwiinyanga ezintandathu ezidlulileyo, ngokuyintloko ngenxa yeziseko ezigugayo, imithi emiselweyo echaphazela iintambo zombane kunye nemozulu.
- Ukucinywa kwexesha elide: Oku kucinywa kufuna ukulungiswa, kwenzeke izihlandlo ezithandathu ukususela ngo-Oktobha ka-2024. Zahlala phakathi kwemizuzu engama-25 kunye neeyure ezintandathu kwaye zibangelwa: Ukuvalwa kokulungisa okucwangcisiweyo.
Iingcebiso zothintelo lolondolozo
Ukunciphisa ukucima nokuphucula ukuthembeka, uEskom usebenzisa la manyathelo alandelayo:
- Ukhuseleko olomeleziweyo: Inkxaso-mali iyafuneka ukufakela ucingo olukwizinga eliphezulu olujikeleze izixhobo ezibalulekileyo (i-reclosers 5592 kunye ne-380) ukunqanda ukonakaliswa.
- Ukutshintshwa kweepali: U-Eskom ucela inkxaso-mali yelori yokomba amatye ukuze ithathe indawo yeepali ezonakeleyo ecaleni kweLeeu Gamka F3. Olu tyalo-mali luya kuzinzisa uthungelwano lonikezelo.
- Ukuphakama kwakhona: Iinzame ziyaqhubeka ukuphakamisa izivalo kwakhona kunye nokulawula iibhokisi ukukhusela kubusela nokonakaliswa.
UMasipala ukwakwiingxoxo no-Eskom malunga nokuba nokwenzeka kolunye unikezelo lweentambo ukusuka ngqo ku-Leeu Gamka ukuya ePrince Albert. Le projekthi ineendleko eziqikelelwa kwi-R100 lezigidi, kwaye iingxoxo zisaqhubeka.
Imizamo yethu yasekuhlaleni
- Ukucheba imithi: Sisebenza kwisivumelwano sokuthena imithi kufutshane neentambo zombane ukunqanda oko kucinywa kufutshane. Amasebe ambalwa, iingxaki ezimbalwa!
Izicwangciso zexesha elizayo
- Umasipala wasePrince Albert ujonge ukuba kunokwenzeka yini ukuseka umzi-mveliso welanga ukuncedisana nobonelelo lombane kwa-Eskom.
Kutheni iSolar?
- Gcina izibane zikhanyile naxa kucima.
- Iindleko eziphantsi zombane kumasipala nakubahlali bakhe.
- Yiya luhlaza ngokuthoba isiseko sethu sekhabhoni.
Le yiprojekthi enkulu enokuthi ithathe iminyaka emibini. Nantsi into ekufuneka siyenzile:
- Lungiselela iziFundo zeMpembelelo (esingqongileyo, imbonakalo, njl.njl.)—oku kunokuthabatha unyaka.
- Ukunyusa imali ngezibonelelo okanye intsebenziswano.
- Khangela eyona ndlela ilungileyo yokwenza ukuba isebenzele wonke umntu.
- Ukudibana no-Eskom, oorhulumente bamaphondo kunye noorhulumente kazwelonke.
Umasipala uya kubonelela ngohlaziyo rhoqo malunga nenkqubela phambili yale projekthi kunye nokubandakanya abahlali rhoqo.
