Eskom gives load-shedding outlook for September 2023 to March 2024

[Jan]

Eskom's bleak load-shedding outlook for summer — at least 116 days of blackouts and regular stage 4

Eskom believes it can avoid exceeding stage 4 load-shedding during the 2023/2024 summer period, due to the return to service of several major generators in the coming months.

However, even in its best-case forecast, it anticipates between 11 and 19 days of load-shedding per month will be necessary up to March 2024.

I mean sure cause they've done a fantastic job so far

 

[G.A.S]

If 11-19 days are "best case"; what is "most likely" or "most realistic" ?

 

[Cranjus McBasketball]

But it'll be fixed by December right? Right?

Eskom doesn't have a clue what they are doing. One moment it will be stage 1 and the next moment it will be stage 4.

Anything they say must be taken with a pinch of salt. (and maybe a double tequila)

Winter = Too cold +rain
Summer = Too hot
Just love Eishkom's excuses.

115 days will be blamed on "wet coal"

I could swear the minister of no-electricity said a while ago that loadshedding will be gone by end 2023 - oh well - Welcome to SA.

I thought the Chump said that this new cadre in thief was going to sort it all out chop chop.

Is that dude doing remote work from Mauritius?

Another dark Christmas for Tiny Tim...

 

[backstreetboy]

The minister of energy doing a stellar job!

 

[Temujin]

Can't get today right let alone tomorrow, but hey, sure, 6 months

 

[Solver]

Eksom believes their own kak and expects the rest of SA to as well. Sadly the majority will

They could not have gotten this right the past 14 years. So, more in the line of 250,000,000,000 years from now we will see what happens.

But it'll be fixed by December right? Right?

Absolutely........the 18th.

 

[Cranjus McBasketball]

Absolutely........the 18th.

I knew they could do it

But it'll be fixed by December right? Right?

There will probably not be any "breakdowns" on Christmas day or Boxing day because the ANC mafia cartel will give the guy that does the switching some time off.

Just keep on keeping on installing solar systems. Bit by bit we’ll help Eskom out of the load shedding disaster without them having to invest more than what they are currently doing anyway. You’re welcome Eskom!
