Load shedding back for next two days - Eskom
Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
Eskom has announced that stage 2 power cuts will be implemented at 4pm on Wednesday.
The utility says these will continue until midnight, with the pattern repeated on Thursday.
Spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshasha says this is due to a shortage of generation capacity.

"The delay in returning a generation unit to service each at Arnot, Koeberg and the Kusile power stations, as well as the unplanned outage of a generation unit each at Camden, Medupi and two units each at Grootvlei, Hendrina and Majuba power stations, have exacerbated the capacity constraints.
"Some generation units are anticipated to return to service over the next few days."
