The state-owned company, which appears to be on a firmer footing operationally, attributed the ongoing good performance to the "enhanced reliability and performance" of its generation fleet.
"This accomplishment is the result of our multi-dimensional generation operational recovery plan, initiated in March 2023, and aggressive planned maintenance, both of which were made possible by financial support from the national treasury's Eskom debt relief scheme," it said.
"The last time the country enjoyed such a prolonged period without load shedding was from 8 September 2020 to 11 December 2020."
"If we maintain a 70% energy availability factor (EAF) and add significant capacity within the country, we can ensure adequate available capacity to meet demand without a significant risk of load shedding," said Bheki Nxumalo, group executive for generation, in a statement on Friday.
There has been a gradual reduction in unplanned losses in the generation fleet, with this figure declining from about 18GW a year ago to an average now of about 12GW.
