South Africa’s crippling power cuts are set to continue after Eskom on Tuesday ramped up load shedding to stage 3.
Stage 3 load shedding
Stage 3 load shedding will be implemented from 4pm to 5am on Tuesday, and on Wednesday during the same time slot.
Thereafter, stage 2 will continue to be implemented from 5am to 4pm daily until further notice.
Eskom said the rotational power cuts were due to a high number of breakdowns at its power stations, and the requirement to preserve the remaining emergency generation reserves.
This is a developing story. More to follow.
