Nkadimeng: We still have challenges, but that is why we have the electricity ministerNkadimeng - Goverment will, through the energy crisis minister, intervene with existing legislation Nkadimeng: Decision to declare was based on the impact of load shedding on the economy.
"All regulations and directions made in terms of section 27 of the [National Disaster] Act pursuant to the declaration of the national state of disaster to deal with the impact or the severe electricity supply constraint is hereby repealed with immediate effect."On Monday, Stage 3 load shedding will be implemented from 05:00 until 16:00, while Stage 4 will be implemented from 16:00 until 05:00 on Tuesday, Eskom said in a statement on Sunday.

This will continue until 16:00 on Thursday, when previously communicated load shedding schedules will resume, it said.

In the same period, a generating unit each at Lethabo, Kendal and Kriel power stations was taken offline for repairs.

Eskom will provide an update as soon as any significant changes occur, the utility said in a statement.Due to some improvements in the generation capacity over the past 24 hours, Stage 3 load shedding will remain in force until further notice, Eskom announced on Wednesday afternoon. A generating unit each at Arnot, Grootvlei, Kriel, and Tutuka power stations has been returned to service. During the same period a generating unit each at Lethabo, and two units at Kriel power stations were taken offline for repairs.
