Cape Town – Eskom has announced that stage 2 load shedding will be implemented from 17:00 to 22:00 on Monday evening.
“Stage 2 will regretfully be implemented between 17:00 and 22:00 this evening.
“A generation unit each at Kriel, Grootvlei and Majoba power stations tripped this afternoon. This added to the severe constraints caused by delays in returning generation units that were expected this afternoon,” said the power utility in a statement.
