Loadshedding suspended

<<<<Sunday, 9 March 2025: After the recovery of more than 3 000MW of generation capacity and replenishment of sufficient emergency reserves in the past 44 hours, loadshedding will be suspended today at 10:00.

Coal operations at Kusile Power Station are at optimal levels, with all units that were offline as of Friday now back in service. Progress on the recovery of Koeberg Unit 2 recovery is well underway.

Eskom reassures the public that Koeberg Unit 2 remains safe.
Planned maintenance outages aimed at preparing for winter and meeting regulatory and environmental licensing requirements continue.

The team is working diligently to restore 4 091MW back to service by Monday.

Eskom’s Summer Outlook, published on 26 August 2024, remains unchanged.

We maintain our guidance that loadshedding is largely behind us due to structural improvements in the generation fleet. While baseload capacity remains constrained, our generation recovery plan is addressing this challenge. The dedicated efforts of our highly skilled staff remain unwavering.

Eskom will communicate further when it is necessary.(Eskom)>>>>>>
