After a few days of respite from loadshedding, South Africans now have to brace themselves for the return of scheduled power outages. Eskom has announced the implementation of stage 2 loadshedding, starting from 4pm today until 4pm on Monday.
Eskom attributed the return of loadshedding to the need to replenish emergency reserves. The utility said that this comes in anticipation of the colder weather conditions that parts of South Africa are expected to experience in the coming days.
Breakdowns are currently at 16 150 MW of generating capacity, while the capacity out of service for planned maintenance is 5 950 MW. Starting today at 4pm, Eskom will implement stage 2 loadshedding until 4pm on Monday. Following this, both stage 2 and stage 3 loadshedding will be in effect until further notice.
