South Africa’s Eskom to implement power cuts to replenish emergency reserves

SOUTH AFRICAN state power utility Eskom said that it would implement “Stage 2” scheduled power cuts from 16:00 local time (1400 GMT) until 0300 GMT on Wednesday to replenish its emergency generation reserves.

Eskom added in a statement that the power system remained unpredictable and that any further deterioration in generation capacity may require higher stages of load-shedding, a term for power outages.
