Eskom implements stage 2 loadshedding

Three Kendal units were taken off and it is anticipated that the fourth and remaining unit will also be shut down.

Eskom has announced on Friday morning that they will be implementing stage 2 loadshedding as of 11:00.

“A unit at Lethabo and Majuba were delayed in returning to service. A unit at Tutuka tripped. Three Kendal units were taken off and it is anticipated that the fourth and remaining unit will also be shut down,” the utility service said.

“The conveyor belts supplying these units are currently not running due to a power fault. No coal is reaching the station at this point.”

Eskom said they, unfortunately, do expect the loadshedding stage to escalate into the weekend but this can only be confirmed once they have a better understanding of these problems and when it is likely to be resolved.

Here is your Tshwane stage 2 loadshedding schedule:

11h00-12h30 Group 7 & 11
12h00-14h30 Group 8 & 12
