Power utility Eskom says it will continue to implement Stage 3 load shedding from 08h00-23h00.

Eskom says this is due to a shortage of capacity.

Stage 3 calls for 3000MW to be rotationally load shed nationally at a given period.

“Loadshedding is conducted rotationally as a measure of last resort to protect the power system from a total collapse or blackout,” the utility said.

Eskom appealed to residents and businesses to use electricity sparingly during this period.

“Please switch off geysers as well as all non-essential lighting and electricity appliances to assist in reducing demand,” it said.

Meanwhile, COSATU will embark on a nationwide protest today that will keep workers at the embattled power utility Eskom away from their posts.
