Updated | By Jacaranda FM
Eskom has confirmed it will implement stage 4 load shedding between 16:00 and 24:00 on Thursday.

Stage 3 power cuts will be implemented on Friday.
The power utility says it hopes to be able to implement lower stages of load shedding through the weekend.
“It is anticipated stages 1 and 2 will be required for Saturday, with stage 2 load shedding only implemented at 16:00 – 22:00 on Sunday,” Eskom spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsha said on Thursday.
“Eskom anticipates lower stages of load shedding to be implemented next week as some units return to service. This will be confirmed closer to the time, or as major changes occur."

“We currently have 4 501MW on planned maintenance, while another 16 320MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns.”
Mantshantsha warns it will still take a few weeks for the power generation system to recover following the recent strike by workers.
“As the generation capacity shortages persist over the next few weeks, load shedding will continue to be implemented at various stages.”
