Eskom announces immediate Stage 2 load-shedding

Eskom has announced that it will begin stage 2 load-shedding immediately, starting at 16:00 on Thursday, 24 April 2025, due to a compounding of factors.

“Despite significant progress in our generation recovery efforts, higher-than-expected electricity demand, the loss of generation units, and extensive planned maintenance have placed strain on the system,” it said.

“As a result, Stage 2 loadshedding will be implemented from 16:00 today and will remain in effect until 05:00 tomorrow.”

The state-owned power utility said that given these ongoing constraints, it urged the public to use electricity sparingly to help reduce pressure on the grid.
