Eskom is implementing loadshedding stage 2, as from Thursday, 24 April 2025, from 4pm until 5am on Friday.
Eskom’s Daphne Mokoena, said “despite significant progress in our generation recovery efforts, higher-than-expected electricity demand, the loss of generation units, and extensive planned maintenance have placed strain on the system.”
As a result, Stage 2 loadshedding will be implemented from 16:00 today and will remain in effect until 05:00 tomorrow.
Mokoena has urged consumers to use electricity sparingly, to help reduce pressure on the grid.
