Eskom says it has no plans to implement Stage 5 and 6 Loadshedding
Cape Town - There is no quick fix to the current load shedding crisis, Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan said, as reports surfaced that Eskom was preparing to implement even more crippling power cuts.
The minister, along with Eskom board chairperson Jabu Mabuza, on Tuesday briefed the nation on the crisis at the struggling utility which has seen most of its antiquated power plants unable to function optimally. The power utility posted a clarification on Twitter in which it said the misunderstanding stemmed from a question raised during the briefing when a question was raised about "what will happen beyond stage 4 load shedding?"
