South African businesses concerned over electricity shortage

 The South African business circle on Wednesday voiced concern over constant load shedding which has a serious impact on business, business confidence and consumers alike.
Such potential impact "is inestimable" as the electricity shortage continues to drag on, the South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SACCI) said.
The "parlous situation" in which electricity utility Eskom finds itself draws grave concern from SACCI, said SACCI President Vusi Khumalo.
Cash-strapped Eskom is facing growing criticism for poor management that is blamed for constant rolling blackouts across the country.
