Eskom says it might implement stage two rolling blackouts at short notice from 4pm on Tuesday afternoon until midnight.

The move is aimed at allowing the power utility to improve the performance of its power stations by recruiting skilled personnel.Ramaphosa gave Eskom 3 months to add new generation capacity to the grid on an urgent basis.

He said this will be achieved by buying energy from businesses, households and neighbouring countries. “As part of addressing the shortage of megawatts, Eskom will now also purchase additional energy from existing private generators such as mines, paper mills, shopping centres and other private entities that have surplus power. A number of our neighbouring countries in Southern Africa, such as Botswana and Zambia, have more electricity capacity than they require.”
