Dark days could be ahead as Eskom announces short-notice load-shedding

123RF/Jakub Gojda"Due to a shortage of generation capacity, Eskom cautions the public that stage 2 load-shedding might be required ... during the evening peak period of 4pm to midnight over the next three days. Eskom will promptly communicate any further changes," said Eskom.

"The delay in returning a generation unit to service each at Arnot, Kusile and the Koeberg power stations, as well as the failure of a generation unit each at Medupi, Hendrina, Camden and two units at Majuba power station, have exacerbated the capacity constraints. "Some generation units at other power stations are expected to return to service over the next few days.

They shouldn't lie and say might, we all know they will. It's a given 👀😜🤦🏽‍♀️

Cancel Eskom's odious debt to the World Bank

The Devil is at it again

Ofcourse they specialise in load shedding not supplying electricity!😡

Well..Thembisa blew up all their substations so as per usual everyone has to suffer..

I'm shocked🙄 ..its our daily bread here 5pm all the time🚮😑

Not surprised. The ANC Policy Conference is done and dusted. 😤

Eskom does not like peace.

Whenever it’s COLD Eskom has to fabricate reasons for Loadshedding because it doesn’t have ENOUGH Energy. So it fabricate excuses such as generation has broken, sabotage, coal is wet and so in and so forth

Shocked... can't say I am!

Darkness never left us lower class citizens, yall just stopped reporting it wen load shedding ended....report load reduction so the rest of the country can know that there are still people living with power cuts Daily.

Correction: ANC's thievery will result in loadshedding.

We're used to no notice at all. Whether it's short or long we don't care

Eskom withdraws services from protest-hit Tembisa over safety concernsWhile the situation in the township remains tense, the power utility said that it would only resume services when it was safe for their employees to work in the area again. I have always hated Bitcoin and thought it was a scam until a friend referred me to Allison_Grillo, I made my first withdrawal of R100,000 in 2 weeks thanks to Allison_Grillo. I don't blame Eskom. Let the protesters suffer for a few days and maybe the reality of their destructive ways will sink in. The sad thing is that little children will have to suffer the consequences of these irresponsible adults. FFS
