LIVE | Relief as Eskom reduces loadshedding to Stage 5 from Monday | News24_Business

Stage 6 load shedding will be implemented from midday until further notice, Eskom announced.

"The refuelling and maintenance outage starting this week, as well as the long-term operation project of Unit 1 of the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station, together with the October chimney failure that has forced three generation units offline at Kusile Power Station, will further reduce available generation capacity and significantly increase the occurrence of load shedding during the next six to twelve months," Eskom said on Tuesday.

There is currently 6 392MW on planned maintenance, while another 16 318MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns. There has also been a delay in return to service of "numerous" generating units, spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsha added. A generating unit each at Duvha, Grootvlei, Hendrina, Majuba and two units at Arnot Power Station, were taken offline for repairs over the past 24 hours.

Stage 2 load shedding will then be implemented daily from 16:00 throughout the night to 05:00 the following morning until further notice.The utility said that load shedding is required due to the high levels of breakdowns and the limited emergency generation reserves. A further three units at Kusile power station are offline due to October's duct failure and are expected to remain offline for months. Koeberg's unit 1, meanwhile, will generate at reduced output for the next three weeks. Eskom has 6 000 MW out on planned maintenance, with another 14 160MW out on breakdowns.

Stage 5 load shedding will be implemented during the evenings at 16:00 – 24:00 from Monday to Wednesday, and will vary between Stage 4 and Stage 2 during the day until Wednesday. Spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsha said this was due to a recovery in generating capacity and pumped storage dam levels. There is 4 887MW out on planned maintenance, while another 15 320MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns"Stage 4 load shedding was implemented at 05:26 this morning until further notice," spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsha said.

Load shedding has hit a record 159 days thus far. The utility’s forecast for the rest of summer and winter next year predict even more load shedding and diesel spend. Where we find ourselves now, it looks like a steep hill. We have accepted the challenge to improve EAF of our fleet.

_Business cANCer

_Business It no longer matters, we won't pay Eskom another cent until they partner with clean power providers. They can scream and throw tantrums until they realize they no longer have the money from the people, (the people that were paying for it).

_Business What relief? Stage 5 or Stage 6 are almost identical! The 💩 that gets fed to the public…. I can only shake my head

_Business Question is, who're the beneficiaries out of this whole ordeal? Are they turning the profits into dollars?

_Business NSBE wants a competent engineer to be appointed as ceo of ESKOM Can anyone please explain to me why gov did not appoint Andy Calitz in the first place!

_Business Rubbish !!

_Business How is this a relief? We are still being inconvenienced. We have to plan our day accordingly by juggling work, family and dont forget the added costs to get the basics done.

_Business Yeses

_Business Relief would be if they completely ended this nonsense. I do not feel relief knowing robots will be out.

_Business What relief?

_Business Really now? Did you just say relief?

_Business How is that a relief? It's still the same schedule with ridiculous 4-hour power cuts. Don't tell people to be 'relieved' that it's only stage 5. Any level of load shedding is an absolute disgrace and embarrassment.

_Business Short ledding is a scam.

_Business Tsek !!!!!! Clearly you don’t know the meaning of relief 😡

_Business woopie so relieved - not!!!!

_Business Who reports this BS? Relief?! WTF?!

_Business Are you lot on drugs or something? Stage 5 isn't relief. Most suburbs are still off for over 9 hours a day excluding post shedging failures which are now unavoidable . Stop painting lipstick on a pig.

_Business there is no difference!

_Business If this reduction is what you call relief, then you obviously not thinking for yourself. How is any form of loadshedding a relief? All they have managed to do is destroy businesses which in turn destroyed livelihoods. Stop repeating the old script and think for yourselves.

_Business 'Relief? ' what a joke. It is summer and everyone is outside. No one is using electricity yet we still get fucked

_Business Relief is no blackouts, couldn't organise a shit party, even having diarrhoea.,🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

_Business relief /rɪˈliːf/ Learn to pronounce See definitions in: noun 1. a feeling of reassurance and relaxation following release from anxiety or distress. 'much to her relief, Eskom announces no more loadshedding'

_Business It's not for the first time, it's stage 6 anytime.

_Business Double load shed, two more, and that excludes the 22 - 00.30 the night before. This is akin to funnagalore?!!!

_Business No relief at all looking at the schedule.

_Business Today's weather forecast, sunny with a chance of electricity....

_Business Our terrible journalism. Attempting,to change meaning of language. This is not relief, people.

_Business Relief lol

_Business Relief would be no loadshedding at all
