Eskom Loadshedding Update: 05 January 2024

Issued on behalf of Eskom by the George Municipality

Friday, 05 January 2024: Stage 3 loadshedding will be implemented today at 16:00 until 05:00 on Saturday as previously communicated, followed by Stage 1 loadshedding until 16:00. Thereafter, Stage 2 loadshedding will be implemented from 16:00 until 05:00 on Sunday. Loadshedding will then be suspended from 05:00 until 16:00 on Sunday and Stage 1 loadshedding will resume from 16:00 until 05:00 on Monday. The lower stages of loadshedding are as a result of the return to service of some generation units in the past 48 hours, coupled with the anticipated lower weekend demand. Eskom will announce the outlook of the week ahead on Sunday and will communicate should any significant changes occur.
