Eskom suspended load shedding at 5 am on Wednesday, following the successful recovery of generation capacity and significant progress in replenishing emergency reserves.
Spokesperson, Daphne Mokwena says although overnight replenishment was still needed, these developments will result in a stable power system.
She says ongoing planned maintenance stands at 6 660MW, in alignment with their 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", Mokwena said.
Eskom will communicate again on Friday, 28 February 2025, or as soon as any significant changes occur.
