Varying stages of loadshedding will be implemented from Friday until Monday morning, Eskom said in a statement on Thursday. 

Stage 1 loadshedding will remain in place until 16:00 on Thursday, followed by Stage 3 until midnight. Power cuts will then be suspended until 05:00 on Friday, after which the pattern will be repeated on Friday and Saturday. 

"Breakdowns slightly increased to 15 100 MW of generating capacity while the generating capacity out of service for planned maintenance slightly increased to 5 252 MW," Eskom said.

Over the past 24 hours, a generating unit at Arnot returned to service, but a unit at Matimba broke down. There is an ongoing delay returning two generating units at Tutuka power station to service.
