This is due to power utility Eskom implementing stage two load shedding due to the loss of 1 800MW at its Majuba Power Station, after damage to a central coal storage silo on Saturday.
The silo, which houses over 10 000 tons of coal, cracked which is impacting coal supplies to all six units at the power station resulting in the power station operating at reduced capacity of 1 300MW.
Eskom said on its website that it will conduct load shedding for the rest of the week.
Benoni residents who receive electricity from Eskom can visit www.eskom.co.za to view their schedule.
