Eskom has announced the implementation of Stage 2 loadshedding starting at 17:00 – 22:00 this evening. Due to the continued shortage of generation capacity, loadshedding will be implemented every evening at the same time until Thursday night.
“Eskom will continue to closely monitor the system, adjust and communicate any changes as may be necessary. We appeal to all South Africans to help limit the impact of the shortages by continuing to reduce the usage of electricity and to switch off all non-essential items,” the utiltiy said in the statement,
Eskom currently has 5 232MW on planned maintenance, while another 14 202MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns.
