"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of the national state of disaster to deal with the impact or the severe electricity supply constraint is hereby repealed with immediate effect."On Monday, Stage 3 load shedding will be implemented from 05:00 until 16:00, while Stage 4 will be implemented from 16:00 until 05:00 on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.
In the past 24 hours, hours two generation units were returned to service at Lethabo and Medupi power stations, but a generating unit each at Hendrina, Matimba and two units at Matla power stations were taken offline for repairs. This will continue until 16:00 on Thursday, when previously communicated load shedding schedules will resume, it said. For the first time in more than two weeks, South Africa will be hit by Stage 4 load shedding, which is currently planned for Thursday evening.
Over the past 24 hours, a generation unit was returned to service at Duvha Power Station. In the same period, a generating unit each at Lethabo, Kendal and Kriel power stations was taken offline for repairs. The delays in returning a unit to service at Hendrina, Medupi and two units at Tutuka power stations have contributed to the capacity constraints, Eskom said in a statement.
On Sunday afternoon, however, Stage 1 load shedding will be implemented from 16:00 until 16:00 on Monday. The power utility said in a short announcement that this was due to"significantly lower than anticipated demand for electricity." Load shedding remains suspended until Monday morning, when Stage 1 will be implemented
In a follow-up message, Eskom said this meant that Stage 2 will not be implemented on Sunday evening as had previously been communicated. * This update has been corrected with new information not initially communicated by Eskom. Load shedding will be suspended on Sunday, Eskom said, but it's a short reprieve as Stage 1 and Stage 2 will be implemented intermittently thereafter.
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. The return to service of a generating unit each at Hendrina and Medupi power stations is delayed.
Eskom said that over the past 24 hours, a generating unit at Arnot Power Station was successfully returned to service.
