Power in Potchefstroom
Students, lecturers and a big military presence give Potchefstroom a different mix of backup power buyers from its mining neighbours. The JB Marks Local Municipality supplies the town along the Mooi River, buying from Eskom, with Eskom feeding some farms and rural areas directly. Outages here come from storms, cable theft and faults in parts of the older network. Student houses and digs around Die Bult want wifi and laptops to keep working through outages, so router UPS units and portable power stations are popular.
