Load-shedding to alternate between Stages 4 and 3 until Thursday
The news is likely to be welcomed by South Africans after the utility implemented Stage 6 load-shedding throughout the weekend.
Residents in Randfontein and Krugersdorp can breathe a sigh of relief after power utility Eskom announced they will ease off on the load-shedding.
This comes after the company issued a statement yesterday (November 26) saying it is reducing load-shedding and that stages 3 and 4 will alternate until Thursday (November 30).
According to Eskom spokesperson Daphne Mokwena, “Stage 3 load-shedding will be implemented from 05:00 until 16:00 on Monday, followed by Stage 4 load-shedding from 16:00 until 05:00 on Tuesday. This pattern of implementing Stage 3 load-shedding in the morning and Stage 4 load-shedding in the evening will be repeated daily until at least Thursday.”
She added that some units are expected to return to service by Tuesday.
