• Should we encounter any loading issues on the day of the outage, we may have to implement loadshedding within the Wilderness area at short notice.

LOAD SHEDDING UPDATE 9 OCT 2022
Issued by George Municipality

Sunday, 09 October 2022: Loadshedding will be implemented daily at 16:00 – 00:00 from Monday to Wednesday. To the extent possible, Eskom will endeavour to limit load shedding to night-time to have minimal impact on the economy and population. The load shedding will be used to replenish emergency generation reserves during the night to bolster generation capacity. Eskom will publish a further update on Wednesday afternoon, or as soon as any significant changes occur. – Eskom

VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE
ONLY USE ESSENTIAL APPLIANCES WHEN POWER IS RESTORED Consumers are reminded to use electricity sparingly especially when power returns after load shedding. This will reduce the risk of overload tripping on the network. Consumers are requested, where possible to not switch on appliances such as stoves and kettles for at least 30 minutes after load shedding.

Loadshedding will be suspended at 05:00 on Saturday morning owing to lower weekend demand and adequate emergency generation reserves. – Eskom
