Eskom announced a marginal drop in loadshedding on Thursday due to improved generation recovery and emergency reserves.
Stage 3 loadshedding kicked in at 10:00, and will continue until 16:00, when Stage 4 will resume. However, Stage 5 loadshedding will be implemented from 20:00 until 05:00 on Friday, instead of the previous Stage 6.
The utility is expected to provide further details later in the day.
