Update: Stage 6 load shedding implemented by Eskom

ETHEKWINI NEWSFLASH 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 
23 FEBRUARY 2025
 
UPDATE: STAGE 6 LOAD SHEDDING IMPLEMENTED BY ESKOM
 
The power utility, Eskom, says it is experiencing a temporary setback. Residents are therefore urged to switch off all high-load appliances like geysers, stoves, heaters, air-conditioners and pool pumps during power outages and stagger switching them on once power returns. 
 
This is especially critical in areas that suffer from frequent overload trips on return of power after load-shedding. Everyone is urged to reduce unnecessary power consumption.
