The power utility downgraded load shedding to stage 1, but says it can’t give a prognosis at this stage on whether rolling blackouts would continue this weekend.

CAPE TOWN – Eskom has reiterated that the implementation of load shedding is important to ensure its power grid is not compromised as some generating units return to service.The power utility says it's diesel generators will only be used in the event of emergencies to back up its other units.

However, Eskom says it can’t give a prognosis at this stage on whether rolling blackouts would continue this weekend.Saldela Abrahams started her clothing business in a wendy house in 2013.However, she's been set back by load shedding and is losing income. “Going home with a R900 a week in today’s life, that isn’t money, so losing two hours a day per day is up to 10 hours a week. That means more than a day’s money. So, we go home with R700 a week.”It also uses about 4 litres of petrol per day, which is an added cost.
