    South Africa's national power company Eskom said on Sunday it would implement a nationwide blackout plan
    from 1700 local time (1500 GMT) to Tuesday due to seven power plant failures in the past 24 hours.

    Eskom said in a statement that the failure of the seven plants resulted in "a total loss of 6,044 megawatts (megawatts), bringing the total unplanned loss of power to 16,118 megawatts.
    "

    In addition, the second phase of the "load shedding" plan will cut 22,000 megawatts in the national grid until Tuesday 2200 local time (GMT 2000).
