Eskom has announced that load shedding will be downgraded to stage 2 load shedding from lunchtime today (15 January) until Tuesday afternoon on the back of lower demand and better generation performance.
“Due to further improvement in generation performance and lower than anticipated electricity demand, Stage 2 load shedding will be implemented from 12:00 midday today until 16:00 on Tuesday,” it said.
The power utility noted that it would communicate the outlook of the week later this afternoon.
