Eskom on Wednesday said while some workers had started reporting for duty at power stations, there was still a high level of absenteeism.

“This backlog will take days to weeks to clear. It is important to note that the system will remain constrained and vulnerable to additional breakdowns while recovery activities are in progress,” it said.

“This has compelled Eskom to continue taking precautionary measures to conserve emergency generation capacity and safeguard plants from damage.” “As previously communicated, stage 6 load-shedding will be implemented from 4pm until 10pm this evening [Wednesday]. Stage 4 will be implemented from 10pm to midnight.

Eskom pays tribute to and thanks those many employees who keep going beyond the call of duty and continue to help keep the lights on during this very challenging timeEskom had 3,161MW on planned maintenance, while another 17,395MW was unavailable due to breakdowns.
