Stage 6 loadshedding to run until further notice [Get your times here]
Eskom warned it may have to implement higher stages of loadshedding at short notice.
The breakdown of eight generating units has forced Eskom to implement stage 6 loadshedding until further notice.
Units broke down at Arnot, Hendrina, Lethabo, Majuba and Camden power stations.
In a statement, the state-owned utility provider noted two generating units at the Lethabo power station had been shut down owing to coal restraints.
“The New Vaal Mine supplying the station has been unable to deliver the expected amount of coal during the past week because of heavy rains,” the statement read.
“The three units are operating at minimum capacity and are at risk of shutdown should coal supply constraints not be resolved.”
Eskom warned it may introduce higher levels of loadshedding at short notice owing to the high number of breakdowns.
