Valentine's Day by candle light: Stage Two #loadshedding

The power utility says the rotational power cuts were implemented at 8am and are expected to continue until 10pm.

Eskom says the need to enforce rotational power cuts is due to a shortage of capacity.

Loadshedding became a reality again this weekend, with the lights going off everyday so far this week. Stage Four loadshedding was introduced on Monday, while Stage Three schedules were used on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Stage Two loadshedding calls for 2,000MW to be rotationally loadshed nationally.
