Eskom will implement stage 1 and 2 load shedding on Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The power utility reduced load shedding to stage 1 at 12h00 on Sunday (6 September) and plans to implement stage 1 and stage 2 load-shedding between 08h00 and 22h00 over the next two days.<\/p>\n

\u201cStarting at midday today, Eskom reduced load shedding to stage 1, which will last until 22:00 tonight,\u201d Eskom said.<\/p>\n

\u201cTomorrow stage 1 load shedding will resume at 08h00 and last until 16h00. Tomorrow, stage 1 load shedding will resume at 08h00 and last until 16h00. It will then escalate to stage 2 until 22:00.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis pattern will repeat on Tuesday, with a high likelihood for Wednesday as well,\u201d the power utility said.<\/p>\n

Eskom said it would continue to communicate timeously should there be any changes, as the system remains unreliable and vulnerable.<\/p>\n

It added that load shedding was necessary this weekend in order to replenish the emergency generation reserves, which were depleted over the past week.<\/p>\n

\u201cEskom teams are working around the clock to return as many of these generation units to service as possible,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe urge the people of South Africa to help reduce electricity usage in order to assist Eskom to reduce the instance of load-shedding,\u201d said Eskom.<\/p>\n
