Eskom has downgraded rolling blackouts from stage four to stage two.
The power utility says this follows the successful recovery of all five units at Majuba, two units at Camden, and one unit at Medupi.
Over the weekend, eight out of ten generation units tripped, leading Eskom to implement stage three load shedding before escalating it to stage six.
The utility later reduced it to stage four before announcing the latest downgrade.

Stage 4 loadshedding will continue to be implemented until 5:00 AM on Tuesday. Thereafter, loadshedding will be reduced to Stage 2 until further notice.
This decision follows the successful recovery of eight out of ten generation units…
