THESE are the schedules for proposed loadshedding -
when needed - for the various areas around Johannesburg. The loadshedding plan,
drawn up by the City of Johannesburg, electricity utility City Power and Eskom,
is based on:
- Power cuts of a longer duration but less
frequent
- Equity (all customers included)
- Ensuring a high degree of certainty for customers
(predictability)
- Combining both
City Power and Eskom supply areas
around Johannesburg
- Ensuring a minimal disruption of major transport
corridors
- Minimising traffic congestion
- Improving communication and customer
understanding
- Recording all actual load shedding in order to
ensure equity in the long run
- Reviewing these plans monthly
