Real Areas,
Not Loadshedding Blocks
Loadshedding still works exactly the same. Your area gets the right schedule and notifications. We've just made it smarter and more local.
ESP now works with actual suburbs and neighbourhoods, not loadshedding blocks. Because your area is more than "Block 8." Real place names create context, making information actionable. You're not just reading updates—you're coordinating with the people who share your street.
Areas vs Loadshedding Blocks
Your area is more than "Block 8." Real place names create context. When chats, outages, and reports are tied to actual suburbs, information becomes actionable. You're not just reading updates. You're coordinating with the people who share your street.
Infrastructure changes. Communities don't. Loadshedding blocks can move, merge, or split overnight. Your suburb stays put. That's where your neighbours are, where local knowledge lives, and where shared problems become shared solutions.

Loadshedding notifications haven't changed. You still get schedules, notifications, and warnings—just under your actual area name.

What's Next
Electricity and water outages are just part of the deal. But these challenges become opportunities to connect, support each other, and yes, even have a laugh along the way.
