Eskom has announced that there is a high possibility of load shedding tonight due to a shortage of generation capacity. Load shedding is expected to take place tonight between 5 and 10pm.

The Power Utility warned that load shedding would be implemented last night, but this was prevented as South Africans reduced their electricity usage.

“Eskom requests the public to reduce the usage of electricity as the power system is still under severe pressure, with a high probability of load shedding” the Power Utility stated in a statement on Wednesday.
