Eskom has implemented Stage 3 load shedding from 16h00 today in South Africa. The power utility only announced it would be implementing Stage 3 about an hour before doing so.

Eskom said in a statement on social media: “Due to the breakdown of two generating units and the delay in returning to service three generating units from planned maintenance, Stage 3 loadshedding will be implemented today at 16:00 until further notice.”

The state-owned enterprise said it will issue another update as soon as it becomes necessary.
