Load shedding is a term used to describe the deliberate, temporary reduction of electrical power in a distribution network. This is done to prevent the complete collapse of the power grid when demand exceeds supply. Load shedding is usually implemented by power utilities as a last resort to maintain the stability of the electrical grid and avoid widespread blackouts.
Load shedding schedules play a vital role in managing the impact of power outages on consumers. These schedules provide advance notice to households and businesses about when load shedding will occur, allowing them to plan accordingly. By adhering to a load shedding schedule, individuals can better manage their energy consumption, minimize disruptions, and ensure that essential services remain operational during outages.
We provide up-to-date load shedding schedules for different regions, allowing you to plan your daily activities around potential outages. Our platform ensures that you always have access to the latest information so that you can avoid being caught off guard by unexpected power cuts.
