Johannesburg – Eskom has suspended load-shedding after the recovery of generation capacity.
In a statement, Eskom announced that load-shedding “will be suspended from 5:00 AM on Wednesday, (26 February 2025)”.
The power utility added: “This decision follows the successful recovery of generation capacity and significant progress in replenishing emergency reserves.
“Although overnight replenishment is still needed, these developments will result in a stable power system.”
Eskom said ongoing planned maintenance stands at 6 660MW, which was aligned with its summer-period maintenance strategy.
“This increased level of maintenance is necessary to prepare for winter to further improve reliability and meet license and regulatory requirements,” Eskom said.
