Morris manufactures and supplies 510 ton Portal Crane for Kariba Dam

19/03/2025

Zambia continues to face severe load shedding, exacerbated by the prolonged drought in early 2024, which significantly reduced water levels in key reservoirs such as Lake Kariba. While recent rains have improved water levels and slightly increased power generation capacity, it is still not enough to fully meet demand.
As power cuts continue to disrupt businesses, agriculture, and households, the need for reliable backup power solutions has become essential. Brad Barthorpe, Sales Manager – Distributors Africa for Husqvarna Africa, emphasises that the choice of backup power source depends on individual needs. While solar power and battery backups have their advantages, they also present limitations. Generators, however, provide a dependable and efficient solution and Barthorpe provides five key advantages of generators and how they offer a practical and cost-effective alternative for maintaining operations when the grid fails. He also emphasises safety as being of paramount importance when using generators, urging proper installation and maintenance to ensure reliable and secure power.
