Loadshedding to continue until Monday morning – Eskom

Stage 2 loadshedding will keep your air-conditioners and lights working intermittently until 5am on Monday, January 6.

According to the Eskom media desk, the conveyer belt at the Medupi power station has been repaired and power is being fed back into the grid, however backup fuels such as diesel have been depleted as a result of the original fault.
