Eskom will make more power cuts this week as it struggles with capacity shortages.

Eskom said late on Sunday it would continue to implement rolling blackouts on Monday and Tuesday withBusinesses have been disrupted, particularly the small- and medium-sized firms which do not have access to backup power sources such as diesel generators.

The Ministry of Public Enterprises, which oversees Eskom, said in a statement late on Sunday that the utility would be assisted to fast-track the procurement of essential goods and services required to rehabilitate and repair power generating units., but both are years behind schedule and tens of billions of rands over budget. The few units at Kusile and Medupi that are online, perform unreliably.

Get ready for full day of Stage 4 load shedding on Monday - EskomEskom has announced that South Africans will face a full day of Stage 4 load shedding on Monday as it battles a shortage of capacity.

Why we should suffer?
