Eskom has announced that load shedding will be suspended at midnight on Sunday.
The rolling power blackouts will then resume again on Monday morning from 5 am until 4 pm at stage 1.
Stage 2 load shedding will then be implemented daily from 4 pm throughout the night to 5 am on Tuesday until further notice.
“It is anticipated that no load shedding will be implemented during the day from Tuesday. Eskom will publish a further update as soon as there are any significant changes,” the power utility said in a statement.
Eskom previously communicated that the rotational power cuts would be maintained at stage 2 continuously until further notice.
Limited emergency generation reserves
On Sunday it said the continued implementation of load shedding was mainly due to the high levels of breakdowns and the limited emergency generation reserves.
“We currently have 5 032MW on planned maintenance, while another 16 390MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns.
“Load shedding is implemented only as a last resort in view of the shortage of generation capacity and the need to attend to breakdowns.”
