Stage 3 load shedding for Thursday; Stage 2 if City-supplied

Stage 3 load shedding will end at 10p.m Thursday night.

Eskom implemented the latest rolling blackouts since 8a.m

‘’Although there has been a slight improvement in generation performance today (Wednesday), we have unfortunately had further breakdowns at Kusile, Matla and Tutuka Power Stations,’’ it said in a statement.

It added that its emergency generation reserves, have depleted.

It further said that Stage 2 loadshedding will then proceed throughout the night.

The utility upped the rolling blackouts to stage 4 on Wednesday, citing further breakdowns and a need to preserve emergency generation capacity.

If your electricity is supplied by the City of Cape Town, then you will only load shed on Stage 2 until 5p.m

The municipality has enough generation capacity to ‘’protect’’ customers from one stage of Eskom’s load shedding.

The City says it will thereafter move to Stage 3 for 2 hours, before reverting back to Stage 2 between 7-10p.m
