LIVE | Permanent load shedding of between Stages 2 and 3 planned for next two years

South Africa's electricity crisis has been decades in the making.

All South Africans need to demand a clear and focused response plan that demonstrates urgency and accountability from government.Tebogo Khaas | Electricity catastrophe: Bleak future on cards for battered small businesses In a wide-ranging interview with News24 on Tuesday, Mantashe, who is also ANC chairperson, not only continued to distance himself and his department from the crisis but doubled down on his comments that effectively accused outgoing Eskom chief executive André de Ruyter and staff at the power utility of treason.

There is only one address to which the failure and collapse of Eskom must be sent, and that's the ANC. Amid a national energy crisis, two civil society organisations have launched a new legal challenge against President Cyril Ramaphosa and Mineral Resources and Energy Minister Gwede Mantashe. South Africa has become like the countries it once used to help. And there is no immediate relief in sight - a prognosis that doesn't help ease the gloomy mood among citizens.

An actual lack of chickens is not causing the shortage, but chicken houses are still full of birds that cannot be slaughtered due to severe load shedding-related disruptions. This is according to DA leader, John Steenhuisen. In a virtual address on Tuesday afternoon, Steenhuisen said"it is time for South Africans to take the government head-on".

However, Soweto Creamery is now feeling the pressure following the continuous load shedding crisis in the country."It has been really challenging. We have a [load shedding] schedule, but it is not accurate at all. Sometimes, the electricity is off for longer than what it is scheduled for."As chronic load shedding continues indefinitely, a behind-the-scenes dispute has broken out between National Treasury and Eskom over where the money should come from to buy more diesel.

"Eventually in the next 12-18 months we will be able to say load-shedding is a thing of the past. That is the target," Godongwana, told Reuters on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in the Swiss resort of Davos.South Africa’s National Energy Crisis Committee, a body run by the office of President Cyril Ramaphosa, expects record power outages to ease as measures put in place, including a new law to fast-track plant development, take effect.

A generating unit each at Kendal, Majuba and Tutuka power stations have returned to service on Monday. Ramaphosa cancelled his trip to the World Economic Forum’s gathering in Davos, Switzerland this week to deal with SA's energy crisis. Time is running out to update ten million prepaid electricity meters in South Africa. In less than two years, a software limitation in the programming of prepaid electricity meters could reduce the revenue that authorities receive from the sale of electricity to zero, unless they step in to do something about it.

Yabona for 2007 till 2023 we have never been a priority of leadership...

It's not rocket science that whenever a country I bullied by all other African countries it would surely crumble. Takers keep taking without giving SA anything. They must all go home and come here with legit documents

At least the ANC stopped lying after 29 years..

H Mm. Mm

ANC will be voted out come 2024

That doesn't surprise me at all. I feel for the small businesses.

What kind of permanent are y’all talking about coz I thought load shedding has been permanent or am I crazy 🧐🤨

So stage 8 and 10 are very likely then (if you read between the lines). Pity we couldn't see this coming years ago....

yanelisatunywa Yah neh

Next year they will be out of office

We have everything we need to generate loads of clean energy. We have wind, sun and ocean currents, why are we burning coal and diesel?

New Dawn, Thuma Mina

Typical

I thot I saw it all😭😭🗑️🗑️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️motherfckas

Ugh… every week different headline and just more disappointing

So what was this guy talking about?

loyisogola this place is shit Loy

There is no president who can fail to deliver electricity in a country like SA with all the skills and resources at his disposal no ways something big is being cooked here by this Ceril guy and his people if Citizens don't demand accountability form this guy SA will be in dack

Stage 2 and 3 in 2 years when we can't even go 2 days with stage 3 lol. We've been on stage 4 to 6 for way too long.

South Africa is under auto mode there is no president at the moment people must stop asking questions from ANC there is nothing left there people should go and demand answers from those MPs who put Ceril into power they must answer or let occupy parliament

CyrilRamaphosa so much for your fourth industrial revolution.. we are barely clinging to the first one

This is bad why 2 years?

I miss South Africa Bt this is bull ….maybe 🤔 I should just make this place home with its bad food 😭😭😭

In the beginning of!

De Ruyter has accepted to the nation that he failed.

🤨

So why did Eskom get tariff hike approved? So this means we don't have to pay for electricity? Right? As we are not be provided basic service

_screenshoter blue.

Yhuu

Like Gov...there shouldn't be load shedding period. This is not a favour. 😏

Thank you ANC

🤔 ddnt ANC recently said in 6-12 months loadshedding will b a thing of the past?

SA needs at least 6MWs . One panel generates 350 watts . That means 17142 panels at a cost of 72 mil. Thats way cheaper than 1.2 bil on diesel. And as every panel is plugged in the demand gets lower. The solutions are here. Why go the opposite route.

Ramaphosa is winning and I believe that his employers are happy.

Abramjee South Africa will never be like Zimbabwe.

Iyooooh!

I'm still waiting to hear why Ramaphosa canceled his Davos Trip!!! Said something about sorting out Loadshedding issue......

This hit differently now

Meaning permanent load-shedding with blackouts here and there. SA is finished!!!

Incinci 2 years, KZN ANC waited 5 years to remove Ramaphosa and still lost Let's pray!!!

Anina competition so kukwamlebese🤷‍♂️

pmcafrica Stage 3 is stage 4. That’s cruel.

If it’s not the pandemic it’s load-shedding, “they” just want us to suffer!!

South Africans are facing dire challenges and it’s taking a toll on us.. imagine sehri and iftaar🙈

I'm SORRY for that ! (Ramaphosa 2023)

Re vouta ka 2024 at least

It's been permanent most...when last was it temporary?

Every single person that voted for the anc ,have a nice long look at the current state of this country. And think long and hard before you vote again. Loadshedding SouthAfrica corruption eskom

The white man's control through black agents is coming to full circle after ANC sold out in 1994. Manipulate Eskom using black agents, then sell it to white imperialists who only make money from the misery of non-whites. Destroy, kill... make money. Same attitude since 1500s.

This is madness..

So Ramaphosa cancelled his trip to Davos just to plan for a permanent stage 2-3shedding?! Guys the choice is yours next year, please love yourselves enough and vote this party out!!!!

sbusiso_ced01 nazo

Who ever is in power nd try to pull dis stunt,only God knows wat will happen before de end of their watever dey call it.mxm

Niyanya Eskom_SA

Ridiculous….

annette_skosana 2024 we the citizens will make that change I pray & hope we all vote for change in our country 🙏

2024 I need to rectify my mistake yooo ngiyazisola😭😭

DanCorderOnAir will never see a barber again cc 5FM

All intentional to allow for tenders to have a continued income from the “repairs”. It’s all a scheme.

Goodbye to distance learning, you'll be in the middle of an exam then poof network gone

Gwede said six months?🤔

tim_meh87 This is becoming unacceptable, guys. Time people start getting the ANC and Eskom management gone.

MYANC Nizonya 1 way

So many international companies will close shop and move away ..

😳

Who's plans are those?

Eishkom!!!

That doesn't surprise me at all. I feel for the small businesses.

I thought they it would be a thing of the past in 6-12 months and now this? It's a joke. SOUTH AFRICA, stand up and get rid of incompetence!!

Welcome to Administration of Dictatorship of Ramadollar

TshepoMakipkip

This is bullshit it is the government sabotaging all the people of SA and we too blind to see this. Our minds are so on power, and they are looting corrupt and killing our country

Yeah well mostly all of the steam ends on apps like these come time to vote it will be ppl who got food parcels talking a good game on the socials seem to b just that..talking

Until CyrilRamaphosa resign loadshedding will be with us forever

😭

Thank you myANC voters. 🎉🎉

But Gwede just said the problem would be fixed in 6 to 12 months

5 days ago 🥲

Mkr!

Tenders tend to go over budget and have delays. So stage 4 and 6 for next 5 years😂😂😂😂

Yoh 🫠

I think it's better that way bcos there are ppl who do not want to pay and stealing electricity, so it's not fair to us who are paying ,I have plan B

ANC lead us from one struggle to another. We also have struggle credentials now MYANC

What happened to loadshedding will be no more in 6- 12 months As stated by Gwede

What the fudge bucket - our economy is rotten and we have to put up with this crap.

Sise kaken

Well think we are used to it. 😡 we had load shedding last night from 18h00 to 20h00 and then we went off again last night at 24h00. It is now 17h00 and we still do not have power… so frustrated.

WTF Eskom_SA

Ayivalwe i country

What in the entire fvck

I need to fix my policies so that I don't decompose at the morgue

If you milk one cow ..and not giving a damn about producing other cows to milk from let alone the well-being of that cow...U keep on milking it until it dries up and eventually dies...MORONNESS.COM

CyrilRamaphosa you are heading for total anarchy! FFS be a leader and lead! You work for the citizens of SA not Eskom! Grow a pair and lead! SA is so broken! No law, no power, no water, no rail and this list is endless!

This is how things started in all the other African countries.

Removing 'the white guy' is really working I see... wonderful...

catfishstewie 😂😂😂Kudlaliwe ngathi la.

Absolute rubbish

deadbeatzee Ah well. Thats a lie. When did it change from 5years?

Unacceptable!

Tired

ANC voters mara lao bona menkel mus le re kentseng mo ona🤦🏽‍♀️yesses

Normalize tagging abo 'stable outlook' MoodysInvSvc FitchRatings spectatorindex SPGlobalRatings

Permanently remove the ANC and fight for coal fire power stations.

afriforum pls help. ☹️

Vote wisely

Please broadcast it load and clear for any new foreign investers so that the in employment rate can rise even further

Abramjee I want to know with loadshedding at all time high, how come we aren't seeing lower Electricity bills 🤔🤔🤔 Skelms of note, we see you EskomCrisis ANCmustfall

Abramjee 20% of the day and more of no power everyday. Shocking levels to which the country has fallen. What worse is this lack of service is becoming accepted.

No fucking ways!!

With temporary interruptions of stage 5 & 6 in between, here & there.

Viva ANC Viva. Keep voting ANC dom kop

Nonsense 🚮

Well done, MYANC

Hamba Southa.

With a a dash of stage 6&8 every now and again just for control nje

Easy one take control of your lives fit solar systems go of the grid not getting better any sooner

South Africans deserve all the horrible things coming their way

Somewhere in African country instead of making plans to source this yall are busy encouraging nonsense StandUpSA PutSouthAfricansFirst EnergyActionPlan se foot

The ANC goverment are using psychology on our people and think we dont see it.

Hehbanna

Thank goodness, no more load reduction!

😂😂💔

That's impossible, few days back Gwede said loadshedding will be a thing of the past in 18months time

Tell eskom it's fired, Ramaphosa is also fired national shut coming in and we gonna kick them out.

...🤬🤬🤬☠️💀☠️💀☠️💀😤😤😱😱

This government hates us that's for sure

That is why Ramaphosa didn’t go to Davos🤡

Yet GovernmentZA told wef that Loadshedding will end in 12 - 18 months now they tell us PERMANENT LOADSHEDDING Stage2Loadshedding stage3loadshedding for the next 2 years we know it won't be stage2 OR stage3 but Stage6Loadshedding permanent Eskom_SA GwedeMantashe1

Are you kidding me. That's like saying 'Loadshedding will be permanent for two years.'

Pathetic. Not even newsworthy. Eskom you are liars and incompetent. Why dont actually start to work and take us of all loadshedding permanently. That will be NEWSWORTHY NEWS24!!!!!

And what happened to the finance minister saying it would be resolved in 6-12 months. More lies. Why did ramapawpaw cancel his trip then ? For what ? Are we sure he is still alive. And not a robot ?

Welcome to Africa. It took at least 30 years to destroy white legacy in other colonised African countries…

Just so we can supply the US with coal

People will lose their jobs,especially those working in restaurants, hotels and shops. Where is south africa going with this?We will live like Zimbabwe and Nigeria who some of them lived without electricity for years. Our green pastures are burning down😪😪😪😪

The what happens to Eskom_SA Loadshedding will be a thing of the Past 🤷 What happens Loadshedding will be over in 8 months🤷🤷 Who ever still believes in this ANC Lead Gov is an IIdiot...

Remo rata kaofela

Yho 💔

A few days after the statement of mantashe and Enoch....ANC has actually collapsed. Just when when people with solutions like Lesufi and MbalulaFikile are close to taking over....these old timers must be removed urgently even if it's through elections, just for a term

Shouldn’t this be sufficient reason to bring elections forward? How can this country continue with the current government? They have demonstrated they are beyond useless. We know they are corrupt. What more damage will they cause? Disaster management NOW!!

Cape Town izoba senkingeni ke, 3 years without water(starting from this year) and 2 years of load shedding😬

Wow

Another zim in south africa What mugabe did in zim anc wil do in south africa (so what keep voting for anc till no more south africa )

Cyril re mo rata koafela re tsamaya le yena, and white ppl are laughing at us

Eskom: Tells us to start installing solar panels and supplying our own power. Also Eskom: repeatedly attempts to institute a tax on anyone going 'off the grid.' You seriously can't make this shit up. 🤡

Mara kodwa siyanyeleka... kukunya oku

even with this a lot of idiots will still vote for ANC. we need to get them tf outta here

Some honesty

Just after they were given 31% increase for the next year.

South Africans need to cutt off any connection to eskom. This is bullshit!

This is actually not a bad thing coz come voting time we won't have amnesia about loadshedding, it will remind us of anc gov failures amongst other things. So, as much as it stings could be a blessing in disguise to rid ourselves of that party from governing.

reatlegetswe Permanent yho 😳

Level with me, the president didn’t go to Davos because he was staying to address the energy crisis and this is what we get? This report does not tell us anything that is not already known. When will be see an actual plan in action, not simply another discussion.

For a backup system or an off grid system call us Lethabo Moeti 0765835569 hlmoetigmail.com

It is absolutely *NOT* an option. This is closing down businesses and people are losing their jobs.

It took them only 30 years…

But didnt Uncle Gwede say it would be solved within 6months?

Isn’t that what De Ruyter wanted ?

It's okay. Come 2024 we will vote them out.

I need to leave this country

Still blaming JZ for this manga manga business 👏🏿🙌🏿

As long as we'll have loadshedding during elections then all is well 👍👍

But but but 6-12 months ! 🤡gwedemantashe

fiesta41868570 Hope it won't affect Cyril ramaphosa defence forces like thumaminions Phalaphalians Re morata kaofelas Re tsamaya le yenas Not forgetting the Zuma must fall brigade

That's so ghetto

Thank you Ramatanyula 😂😂

Vote for ANC

Ai tog 😭😩

Loadshedding doesnt rest on CR17 alone. The entire ruling party is to blame. No one is prosecuted for the looting of government owned entities. Where's SAA? PRASA etc.Your vote as a South African is your voice. Vote them out in 2024 to stop this nonsense.

If this is a fact could it not have been implemented at least 5 years ago? We could have been in a better situation

bbanzmkhonto 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Cha siyadakelwa kodwa yazi

2024 looking more interesting. myanc have put themselves into the opposition benches.

MSP

Im tired of ANC

RSA should get Germans to come and build a Nuclear plant… End of problems.

Proudly brought to you by the CORRUPT ANC!

This is nothing . We will have power 4 days a week by the end of this year . 3 x 24hrs a week .

With ANC hand on the switch HKGK VoetsekANC

Oksalayo Anc will forever rule south Africa and we will get used to loadshedding like covid....viva ANC vivaaaaa

And people still ask me why I wanna leave SA 💀

Oh wow

Blacks voted for this

I see lies Bafo.

This is best case scenario! Come winter then it's stage 6 to 8 and then during the normal days we are having stage 4-6. Loadshedding now a permanent feature of our country.

Can't we as South Africans move the election to a sooner date, next year is too far, we need to remove MYANC now from power

Nonsense 🚮🚮🚮

When winter kicks in, Stage 8 will be the order of the day. Save this tweet.

That's nothing new. They've done it without fail since 2018! The only surprising announcement that eskom can make is ending loadshedding...

The ANC has delivered!

There will be more cuttoption with green transition with private sector. As we all know contracts will awarded to BBBE company where friends, family members of ANC crades will still enrich them self! Nothing is fair in this country

The ANC must not win elections in 2024. Rural folks in Limpopo and Eastern Cape must wake up.

When Eskom_SA says that they are working hard to ensure generators don't break during winter, basically guarantees that they will, and that's exactly when NumsaFS will down tools and demand higher wages.

Yoh haowa!

This government does not take citizen seriously. They think they are entitled to run this country…

This is nothing but Collapse for Privatization... I'm sure theres lots of Transaction that Prove Eskom capture and Corruption.... Until we get good leadership We going to be tolerating the NEW WORLD ORDER which is backed up by CYRIL RAMAPHOSA... ONLY TIME WILL TELL

Dear CyrilRamaphosa and Eskom_SA there are still variables not being attended to, which are guaranteed: Numsa_Media strike action this year, criminality within Eskom_SA, and GwedeMantashe1 failing to execute alternative energy projects.

Atleast elections are next year...

Next year permanent stage 6 untill there is fuckall.

Those who are asking us not to vote for ANC, please let us know who to vote for and why?

Mnxim

Recession for the next two to three years.

Anc will fall next year.

The Anc wants to lose elections infact they're begging to lose elections

Gwede Mantasha said he is going to fix Eskom in 6 months.

PS: Schedule can and will be adjusted to Stages 8 and 10 within seconds notice until further notice. ESKOM. Depowering the nation..

😂😂😂😂Ramaphosa keaurata kawufela 🤡🤡🤡🤡Ubuyile

So you got 👀 inside information about that 🤔?who's your source how credible is he or they

And the thieves and politicians who stole and orchestrated the breaking of Escom must be prosecuted and jailed in these years. ONLY THEN will it be acceptable.

This government always contradict themselves

So you guys knows that Generators will breakdown in future but y'all do nothing about that 🚮

PATHETIC😡😡😡😡😡 viva ANC viva😡😡😡😡

Possible stage 4 or 6

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Stop misleading the society, these are possibilities in place, depending on the performance of different power stations, you bloody liar

Gwede will stop human rights violation in 8 months.

ANC CANCER .

No surprises . So me one thing they built up.

De Ruyter said 18 months and that was in 2018

You can see they are not even trying to find a solution for this, instead they are planning more loadshedding for the next coming years. 🚮

Thank you NewDawn🙄

'lOaD sHeDdInG wiLL bE A tHiNg oF tHe pAsT iN 18 mOntHs'

This is nonsense! CyrilRamaphosa Just RESIGN !

We all know 2 years will definitely turn into 4 or 5 years. And it will definitely always be higher than stage 3. They never tell us the truth. 🥹

ANC living up to its reputation

Vhadiks In China🇨🇳 they have something called the firing squad!

this nonsense just show how useless, incompetent & unfit for blacks to run government. no plan/ vision just vibes. the only good story to tell is that we have 29 million people on grants & most black people in our communities are drunkards.

But Gwede said......

Load shedding is systematically designed to bankrupt small businesses and business in general....it is part of the instructions from ProfKlausSchwab in his endeavor to implement tye Great Reset

Tribalism won🥇

Except during the election cycle ofcourse…😉

What happened to gone in 12 months? ANC is a joke

Re mo rata kaofela

Ngumnqundu lowo 🤨

Leya nyela

Permanent removal of Anc should be planned as well

Kahle kahle Nis'jwayela amasimba nina.

Let's just get rid of ANC please 🙏

Wow... Anyway what did I expect from a meeting of an Ice-Boy president and his dunderheads

So homie using a candle to see his laptop

No! We do not want any load shedding at all you rubb!shes.

Slowly becoming Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 😂😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So they continue making promises that they know won’t be fulfilled This statement here 👇🏽is wishful thinking. They’ve said so in the past. When will these guy learn that RE will never get us out of loadshedding

Will still be stage 4-6, I don’t believe this nonsense for a second.

Ohk

So that is the govt plan - loading shedding will be one of the key elements on deciding my vote in 2024

New dawn

Didn’t I tell you they planning for permanent stage 2 😂🤣😂there you go

Please elaborate

Permanent you say?!

And no reasons why that's the case.

Leadership under Ramaphosa has been a complete failure GovernmentZA MYANC Rather we get independent producers to take over

Sekubi eSatafika‼️😭

Lol

Should be the nail in the coffin for this government, but yeah...

This man should've just gone to Davos mos. If he cut his trip to guarantee loadshedding instead of fixing it, he shouldnt have stayed. We are being asked to accept mediocrity, incompetence and sub standard service as normal. This is BS and I reject this nonsense.

At some point the public has to own it and say this is what we have chosen for ourselves.

BAMU RATA KAOFELA, MEANING THEY LOVE HIM RAMAPHOSA TO BITS.

Bye bye economy.

Imagine this nonsense

Key word 'Planned' wow.

SA going back to the year 500million BC before any form of electricity was thought of

Msunu weno Nonke!

Bull shit!! It’s the people right to have permanent electricity It’s our constitutional right

I just feel sorry for that 5fm guy who cut his hair bald said he would only cut it again if he doesn't loadshed for a week

Thuma Mina hard at work.

Fucked it up properly didnt you 🖕🖕

We're fucked. Well done to the ANC.

WE WANT NO LOAD SHEDDING FIX THIS CYRIL😡😡😡😡😡👎🏻👎🏻

Mzansiii for shooooo

Ok. Bye

Thanks to ANC thieves
