This after the power utility had implemented stage 6 rolling blackouts.

Eskom Crisis Communication manager Menzi Mngomezulu says the easing of loadshedding is due to the pumped storage dam levels that have been adequately replenished for the week ahead.

"Diesel levels at the OCGT power stations have improved but remain low. Therefore, stage 2 loadshedding will be implemented from 08:00 until 16:00 today (Sunday), followed by stage 4 loadshedding until 05:00 on Monday.

Eskom will publish an update as soon as any significant changes occur.
