Eskom has suspended load shedding, effective 12:00 on Saturday, after the power system recovered sufficiently, with emergency reserves “adequately replenished”. Initially the country had been advised that stage 2 load shedding would persist from May 3 until 05:00 on Monday, “owing to delays in returning generators to service, as well as breakdowns of nine generators.
It expects another unit each at Matimba and Arnot power stations to return to service later on Saturday. The embattled power utility did however warn consumers to use electricity sparingly, as the onset of winter has seen increased demand and a constrained system is expected throughout the season.
