Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority begins a 44-day maintenance shutdown of Hwange Power Station Unit 3 from September 10 through October 24, 2025. The utility company describes this statutory maintenance as essential for enhancing the unit's availability and reliability. Four remaining units at Hwange Power Station will continue generating electricity during the maintenance period. ZESA Holdings apologizes for the potential inconvenience while emphasizing its commitment to improved supply reliability and sustainable energy futures for customers. The announcement arrives amid ongoing national grid pressures and widespread concerns about power outages.

Public reactions remain divided regarding the planned shutdown. Some residents worry that the maintenance could increase the frequency of blackouts across the country. Others welcome the overdue maintenance work despite timing concerns. One Harare resident expressed hope that ZESA would adhere to announced dates. The utility has not provided specific details about potential load-shedding impacts during the maintenance period.
