Eskom reduces rolling blackouts to stage four

Eskom has reduced its rolling blackouts to stage four with effect from 5am on Friday.

It says it plans to further reduce the rolling blackouts to stage three on Saturday.

The power utility says the return of several generating units to service and low weekend demand should allow it to continue to reduce rolling blackouts.
