Stage 1 and 2 load-shedding implemented─── 09:53 Sat, 05 Nov 2022
South Africans will be in the dark again this weekend with Eskom implementing load-shedding on both Saturday and Sunday.
Eskom says stage 1 load-shedding will be implemented from 5 am until 4 pm over the weekend, with stage 2 in place overnight.
"The continuous implementation of load-shedding is mainly due to the need to preserve emergency generation reserves owing to a high level of breakdowns and the delay in returning some generating units to service," says Eksom's Sikonathi Mantshantsha.
