Yeah must have been a big unit that went down for them to have started earlier and the stage change from 1 to 2 from 6pm.

The eskom predictions predicts that their should be enough supply but now since a unit has failed I suppose they won't be able to meet demand for the rest of the week maybe the weekend too as they run their backups.....

Still stage 2 loadshedding.... Something must have really broken if they are going to keep it until 10pm or later.....

NVM they did revert back to stage 1 @ 20:52 and looks like the have suspended loadshedding now.

#Load_shedding has reverted back to stage 1 at 20:52. Eskom will only load shed what is absolutely necessary.
