Eskom has pushed load shedding higher on Tuesday after losing generating units overnight.
Power utility Eskom says that load shedding will be pushed to stage 2 during the day on Tuesday, after it lost three generation units overnight.
The group had previously intended to keep the load shedding schedule on a rotation between stage 1 during the day and stage 3 in the evening.The sudden loss of three units marks the first time in recent weeks that the utility has been forced to abruptly alter the load shedding schedule. The utility has slowly been improving overall performance and has even managed to suspend outages for a time during periods of low demand.
When asked how long South Africa will continue living in this situation – waiting each day to hear whether load shedding will be up or down, off or on – Cassim said that the situation should improve in 2024.
