There will be no load shedding for Cape Town residents during the Stage 1 power cuts, but their Stage 1 Loadshedding will kick in between 4pm and 10pm on the same days. Eskom

This will mean there will be no load shedding for Cape Town residents during the Stage 1 power cuts, but their Stage 1 load shedding will kick in between 4pm and 10pm on the same days.

This was followed by Stage 4 load shedding on Wednesday and Thursday, which means some areas in the country can expect blackouts at least twice per day. “This pattern will repeat on Tuesday, with a high likelihood for Wednesday as well. Eskom will continue to communicate timeously should there be any changes as the system remains unreliable and vulnerable,” said Eskom.

“Load shedding was necessary this weekend in order to replenish the emergency generation reserves, which were depleted over the past week. Eskom expects several generation units to return to service during the next few days which will help ease the supply constraints.
