Eskom's Easter weekend miracle: No load shedding resurrection!

Just like Jesus rising from the dead, Eskom has risen to the occasion, granting South Africans a rare reprieve from the dreaded load shedding for six consecutive daysIn a surprising turn of events reminiscent of divine intervention, Eskom, the notorious bringer of blackouts, has pulled off a remarkable feat this Easter weekend.

Due to the sustained available generation capacity, adequate emergency reserves, and anticipated lower demand at the beginning of the week ahead, load shedding will remain suspended until further notice. Currently, unplanned unavailability stands at 13 579MW, while planned maintenance accounts for 7 046MW of generating capacity. A promising 3 550MW is set to be back in action by Tuesday evening, further bolstering hopes for a load shedding-free week.
