Eskom issues power warning for the week

The national power system will be tight on Monday evening and is expected to stay that way during peak hours for the rest of the week, Eskom said.

Current planned maintenance stood at 2685 MW. Unplanned outages were 5250 MW.

Eskom said the strain on the power system was because of the cold weather.

20% is offline...but the strain is from the cold weather?

Why waste our time with these daily "warnings"?

Eskom, just say "Power warning until 2015"

and then renew it in January 2015.

Still haven't had any load shedding ("unplanned power outages") the past few weeks, so I must be very lucky.

Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday nights from 6 to 10 are our "KWAAA" time slots. Nil tonight thankfully. That said, the family has started retiring to our "dungeon" where it's warmest. TV in there and all are happy. No need for heaters just yet even though it has been quite frosty in our spot.
