The embattled power utility will then implement various load shedding stages over the weekend until Monday.   

Eskom spokesperson Daphne Mokoena says over the past 24 hours, a generating unit at Camden, Duvha and two at Kendal power stations were returned to service. 

“In the same period, a generating unit at Medupi and two generating units at Kriel power stations were taken offline for repairs.

“The delay in returning to service a generating unit at Kendal, Majuba and two generating units at Tutuka power stations is contributing to the current capacity constraints. Eskom teams are working tirelessly to return these generating units to service.”
