Eskom promises lower stages of loadshedding for the weekend in South Africa

Some lighter, brighter news for South Africans this weekend as Eskom has announced that load shedding will be reduced from Stage 4 to Stage 3… with Stage 1 (whoopee!) expected on Sunday morning!

In a statement on Friday, the power utility said:

“Stage 4 load shedding will continue to be implemented until 05:00 tomorrow. Thereafter, Stage 3 load shedding will be implemented from Saturday 05:00 until 05:00 on Sunday.

“Stage 1 load shedding will then be implemented until 16:00 on Sunday and then revert to Stage 3 load shedding.”

Eskom said further updates will be published as soon as any significant changes occur. – SAnews.gov.za
