Eskom has updated its planned load-shedding schedule for the coming weekend. One of the changes from its announcement earlier this week is that it will implement stage 2 instead of stage 1 load-shedding on Friday evening between 16:00 and midnight.
The state-owned power utility also said load-shedding during the evening peak is confirmed until at least Saturday.
It promised to communicate whether load-shedding would be required after that over the weekend.
A table provided alongside Eskom’s latest load-shedding schedule update shows the utility has pre-emptively kept stage 1 load-shedding for Sunday evening between 16:00 and midnight.
The stages confirmed in the coming days are as follows:
- Thursday, 21 July 2022, 16:00-24:00 — Stage 2
- Friday, 22 July 2022, 16:00-24:00 — Stage 2
- Saturday, 23 July 2022, 16:00-24:00 — Stage 1
- Sunday, 24 July 2022, 16:00-24:00 — Stage 1 (tentative)
- Monday to Thursday, 25 July to 28 July 2022 — To be confirmed
Below is the revised timetable showing Eskom’s new load-shedding schedule for Friday and over the weekend.
