For a short while, Eskom gave the nation somewhat relief by alternating between stages 3 and 4 of loadshedding.
Stage 4 and stage 5 have just been announced as of 1 March 2023.
According to Eskom the new pattern will be as follows:
- Stage 5 will be implemented from 4pm tomorrow up until 5am Thursday.
- Then Stage 4 will carry on from 5am till 4pm.
The pattern is to carry on until Friday. This is due to scheduled maintenance Camden, Kriel, Matla and Matimba.
Other power stations are dealing with breakdown-related issues. Power stations such as Majuba, Tutka and Lethabo are offline.
