NATIONAL NEWS - Emalahleni citizens are currently faced with tough times with load shedding striking almost every day.
But thanks to Kenneth Phenga who created a mini power generator that uses gas and batteries as a form of power, all those problems might soon fade away.
This creation does not only act as a generator but it also happens to be a heater, a two-in-one design running on 12 Volts with the aim of converting it from a Direct Current to an Alternating Current.
The 31-year old is a technician by profession who holds a Mechanical Engineering qualification from the then Cape Technikon. The project started in February with the help of his welder friend Smangaliso Nyathi which saw them working on weekends due to their tight working schedule during weekdays. These gentlemen in the past few months have been able to see the labour of their hard work bear beautiful fruits.
