If Eskom is unable to contain unplanned breakdowns through winter, South Africans could face over 100 days of load shedding.
Stage 4 load shedding continues, but Eskom expects more of its units to return to service as the week progresses.
Have you got candles ready for a possible escalation in load-shedding?
The power utility expects to lift load shedding this week and does not foresee it escalating to Stage 6.
There can be as many as 101 days of load-shedding this winter, in the "extreme case", according to an Eskom official. Eskom on Tuesday provided an update on the state of the power system, this after load-shedding escalated to Stage 4 in the morning due to failing generating units.
