poweralert....

Well were out last night and when we got home power was up so no idea when it returned. Sadly I turned off HassIO not to add extra drain, so no log on when it came back.

ouch :-( but yeah turning things off to converve power also annoyed the wife, as I literally got it down to just keeping the inverter, alarm, lights and routers running, even unplugged the fridge, that gave the sun a chance.

so if we had diesel we could be on stage 1/stage 2 tonight instead of stage 3, I mean it won't make a difference to me, but it would tomorrow sort of

I have stage 4 load shedding at 16:00. But would have been fine with stage 3...

Slight breeze today and LS is picking up.

But according Minileccy there's nothing to worry about for winter...

I've got a feeling there are no reserves, cause if there were we'd actually be at a lower stage.

No load shedding scheduled but we are off here in Durban North

Impossible to say when we still only have data from Tuesday:

Station build-up for the last 7 days - Eskom Data Portal

This shows how resources were used to build-up the demand over the past 7 days, and it includes both generation and demand side resources that Eskom has contracts with.

Yup and there was some usage of the OCGTS but only a third, sigh who knows what is happening as the generators that delayed in coming back are maybe a stage.
