Eskom load-shedding 6 September to 16 September (Stage 3: Fri-Mon, Stage 2 elsewhere)

[Hanno Labuschagne]

All-day load-shedding is back

Eskom will implement stage 2 load-shedding on Tuesday evening and then ramp up to all-day load-shedding until Saturday.

The utility said the rotational power cuts were necessary due to a shortage of generation capacity owing to breakdowns and delays in returning some generating units to service.

To look on the bright side: slightly lower probability of death by electrocution this week.

Well actually not all day, previously it was 5 to midnight, now it's 5 to 10, so there is a 2 hour break.

Didn't they say it will be back in Summer, or did they rename Spring to Summer?

As I told my daughter in my best American Black Pastor voice, this house is a loadshedding free house! Eskom loadshedding is not welcome in my house!

The she looks at me like I am crazy, she does not appreciate the fine arts.

So Eskom, I dont care, just a few Robots that will back up traffic, but otherwise I am okay.

Cape Town still hasn't gotten the memo. Still says Loadshedding suspended.

Assuming we'll have Stage 1 from 5pm to 7pm and then possibly midnight to 5am at Stage 2.

Why would you have it when it's not happening from 10pm to 5am

So this is what I did last time round. I added a 2 burner gas stove, got me a gas geyser, and upgraded the battery and inverter. Fool me once…

So a generation unit breaks down at five separate stations... all at the same time??
