London — Zambia’s state power company ZESCO expects to restrict power supply to many customers from June 1 because of low water levels in hydroelectric dams, a company source said on Thursday.
The source, who asked not to be named, added ZESCO planned talks with long-term contract holders, including miners, on their power supplies.
For customers without long-term supply deals, the source expected four hours of load-shedding daily, meaning rotating power cuts.
