Loadshedding has affected the operation of businesses, schools and hospitals in South Africa. In an effort to combat the effects of loadshedding on schools, the Department of Basic Education has provided schools with generators or access to uninterrupted power supply.

The Minister of Basic Education has released the total number of schools which have access to a generator. 

Here are the number of schools with generators in each province:

  • Eastern Cape - 255
  • Free State - 18
  • Gauteng - 39
  • KwaZulu-Natal - 192
  • Limpopo - 33
  • Mpumalanga - 38
  • Northern Cape - 10
  • North West - 42
  • Western Cape - 6

It is evident that there is an unequal distribution of generators in schools in each province. However, hopefully, all the schools that are in desperate need of generators have been accommodated. 

Unfortunately, the information on the number of schools in each province with access to uninterrupted power supply is not available.
