(Reuters) – South Africa’s Eskom said on Thursday it would reduce the level of rotational power cuts to “Stage 2” from “Stage 3” at 22:00 local time (2000 GMT), and that the new level would remain in force until Friday.
Eskom said three generation units had returned to service since Wednesday night and a singular unit was shut down for repairs, with two more units set to return in the next 24 hours.
