The bank's revision comes as Eskom resumes rolling blackouts earlier than expected.

Eskom is currently implementing Stage 4 rolling blackouts during the day and stage six in the evenings until further notice.The council’s CEO James Mackay says the impact on the economy due to the energy crisis is immeasurable.

The extension came after a court had ordered Nersa to make the decision on Eskom’s application on or before December 24, 2022.Eskom is also requesting a further 9.4%.Data published by Statistics South Africa reflects the adverse impact of load shedding and muted global economic growth on the manufacturing sector.The largest negative contributions came from food and beverages, wood and wood products, as well as petroleum and chemical products.

Analysts say while load shedding has been a deterrent for the manufacturing sector, high input costs have also weighed heavy on the sector in the past couple of months.
