Eskom has announced that it will implement Stage 2 loadshedding on Saturday, October 23 from 9pm until 5am on Monday. Eskom released a statement earlier indicating that loadshedding has been caused by breakdowns, numerous trips at various power stations, as well as delays in returning units to service.
“This has required us to rely heavily on emergency generation reserves, which are now at very low levels. To ensure adequate reserves for the week ahead, it is necessary to preserve the remaining emergency reserves and to replenish as much as possible before Monday,” the statement said.
