NATIONAL NEWS - In another dreaded statement on Sunday, power utility Eskom confirmed that heavy load shedding will continue on Monday, with Stage 4 kicking off from 09:00 and ending at 23:00.
Stage 4 has been in place due to a severe shortage of generating capacity. It means 4,000MW are cut from the power network in rolling blackouts.
They asked people not to be “alarmed”, and that they were controlling the problem and working hard to restore the system beyond its current 80% ability to meet demand.
