Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>South Africans are in for more intense power cuts this week. Eskom will implement Stage 3 load shedding on Monday and Tuesday evening.<\/p>\n

The power utility said it will resume with Stage 2 load shedding 17:00 until 22:00 tonight but it is forced to escalate this to Stage 3 on Monday and Tuesday evening due to a further loss of generating capacity. Thereafter, load shedding will be reduced to Stage 2 for the rest of the week.<\/p>\n

“Eskom will continue to closely monitor the system, adjust and communicate any changes as may be necessary. Since yesterday evening, breakdowns occurred on a unit each at Tutuka, Camden and Majuba power stations,” said Eskom in a statement.<\/p>\n

It added that while a generating unit each returned to service at Hendrina and Majuba power stations today, it still has 2 094MW of generating capacity down due to planned maintenance, and another 17 640MW out because of breakdowns.<\/p>\n

“Eskom appeals to all South Africans to help limit the impact of load shedding by reducing the usage of electricity and to switch off all non-essential items,” said Eskom.<\/p>\n

It urged consumers to us electricity sparingly especially between 05:00 \u2013 09:00 in the mornings and 16:00 \u2013 22:00 in the evenings.<\/p>\n
