Ted Blom says South Africans could face stage 6 or even stage 8 load shedding.

Energy expert Ted Blom says South Africans could possibly face stage six or even stage eight load shedding according to Eskom’s system outlook.

Eskom is under severe pressure after breakdowns at the Tutuka, Majuba, Kusile, Matimba and Duvha power stations.

This added to the breakdowns at the Kriel and Kendal power stations, which led to the current cycle of load shedding.
