Electricity company Eskom said it will regularly update South Africans on supply during the World Cup, which starts June 11, and will ask them to turn off appliances if power runs low. The utility said “although 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.” Under the worst circumstances, South Africans will be asked to turn off everything but one TV and one light, which will surely provide enough heat for fans to stay warm as they watch the Cup.
