Don’t be left in the dark
The power utility warned that any unexpected changes on the already vulnerable and constrained power system could lead to a change in the load shedding stage at short notice
ESKOM announced earlier today that it will implement load shedding due to increased electricity demand and a shortage of generation capacity.
Stage 1 load shedding has been implemented as of 12pm to 5pm this afternoon, 24 July.
Stage 2 will be implemented from 5pm to 10pm this evening, 24 July.

* this schedule is subject to change.
Please note: If you are experiencing a power outage, either outside your schedule time or when load shedding is not active, then it is a result of a fault on the network and not because of load shedding. Please report your outage to Electricity Call centre on 080 13 13 1111.
See tweet below from the power utility
Eskom has implemented #load_shedding stage 1 from 12h00 to 17h00 & stage 2 will be implemented from 17h00 until 22h00 today.
