Eskom has announced that stage 2 load shedding will be implemented on Sunday evening – with stage 3 load shedding to follow on Monday and Tuesday next week.
Stage 2 load shedding will be implemented on Sunday night from 17h00 to 22h00.
Stage 3 load shedding will be implemented on Monday and Tuesday from 17h00 to 22h00.
Thereafter stage 2 load shedding will be in effect during those times for the rest of the week.
Eskom said load shedding has been necessitated by further breakdowns in generating capacity, with losses due to unplanned outages sitting over 17,500MW.
