Good news about Eskom load-shedding danger

Eskom reports that, as of Friday, breakdowns at its power stations stood at 10,846 MW — well below its base case of 13,000 MW for the winter period.

Although weekly average breakdowns remain marginally above Eskom’s “safe” threshold at 13,051 MW, they have declined substantially since mid-May.
 
Good news I guess, considering where we were. But that is still uncomfortably close to the loadshedding limit.
 
I miss load shedding! Being able to look out of the window at night as people walk past in the dark while I'm watching TV with lights on all over the house has a certain snob value! 😂
I hope Eskom fines you with that unregistered solar system.

But the real questions is, do you have your own water.
 
Only way to go own borehole, solar, French Drain. Do not rely on the BS promises of the piehole politicians.
