Eskom announces immediate load-shedding

Eskom has announced that it will begin stage 2 load-shedding immediately, starting at 16:00 on Thursday, 24 April 2025, due to a compounding of factors.

"Despite significant progress in our generation recovery efforts, higher-than-expected electricity demand, the loss of generation units, and extensive planned maintenance have placed strain on the system," it said.

Right on cue! Every time the DA embarrasses the ANC we get loadshedding. This happens too often to be a coincidence.

 

[dualmeister]

Is it too late to pay that VAT increase

S**t........the coal is wet again guys...

This outrage is positive, it means we are no longer used to loadshedding

One of those days.
- Tons of rain
- City of Tshwane major electricity outtages
- Loadshedding

Just saw friend who moved to NZ and who came back for a visit. He must be feeling pretty good in his decision right now.
