It is anticipated that more than 200 000 tourists will arrive in South Africa during the next few weeks and although electricity supply electricity supply is expected to be sufficient over this period, cold winter temperatures combined with high electricity demand is likely to place Eskom under additional pressure, the parastatal announced last week.

The World Cup stadia will however not put excess stress on Eskom's power since all stadiums are self-powered, the state-owned company added.

If Eskom asked you to turn off all your electric appliances except one TV to stay updated during the World Cup, will you do that?
