Eskom wants to implement power cuts in Durban

Yeah, Stinky Richards Bay we only ever get 2 hours. We don't even have a schedule for anything past stage 4, they just switch off the industrial areas then.

Same for Kya Sands. (Industrial)

Anything above Stage 4 and boom no power. I am actually shocked to see power came back today. Was off since last week Thursday.

I heard it’s because Toyota and Sapref will be fixed and back on the grid so two very big loads coming back. Why they can’t say this in the first place is beyond me.
