Friday, 14 October 2022: Due to lower weekend demand loadshedding will be suspended at midnight on Friday. Eskom will publish a further update on Sunday afternoon, or as soon as any significant changes occur.

Since Wednesday evening a generation unit each at Arnot and Majuba power stations were returned to service while a generating unit each at Duvha, Hendrina, Lethabo and Tutuka power stations were taken offline for repairs.

We currently have 5 254MW on planned maintenance, while another 15 190MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns.

Loadshedding is implemented only as a last resort in view of the shortage of generation capacity and the need to attend to breakdowns.

ENDS

Due to lower weekend demand, loadshedding will be suspended at midnight on Friday.

The power system is severely constrained and loadshedding may be implemented at short notice, should there be any significant breakdowns.
