Expect load-shedding tomorrow — Eskom

Eskom COO Jan Oberholzer has warned that load-shedding would most likely be required tomorrow evening.

Oberholzer said this is despite at least another 2,000MW of generating capacity that could be brought back online on Tuesday.

Maybe those twats at Eskom should be paid in Candles for a while....

 

[MisterFortySomething]

Damn all those people with solar panels causing usage spikes in the evenings

 

[Gazg]

Sounds like most of these station managers are either incompetent fools or deliberately falsifing info to further sew chaos. Probably both.

Eskom’s group head of generation, Philip Dukashe, added that the utility was looking to get in contractors to help stabilise the system’s performance.

Don't worry, this guy says there are cadres suppliers ready to deliver wet coal break the coal pulleys drop a bolt in the generator drop an extension cord on the generating unit fix the problem.

Do it in the daytime when we have generators at work you perpetual retards.

Do it in the daytime when we have generators at work you perpetual retards.

Sigh... Why do you think they tend to do it at night or during peak times? During the day demand isn't that high and smaller businesses don't have generators and of course fuel costs.

Do it in the daytime when we have generators at work you perpetual retards.

That would ruin the economy more than at night time.

Now that I am on LiFePO4's all I can say is

Bring it

These geniuses at Blekskom and all the way up the chain with their mind-boggling ineptitude left our whole area with no water pressure today.
The reservoir is like 800m from my house but the pumping, obviously, she's a problem she's not working when there's no electricity.
So I woke up to my geyser dripping water through my ceiling this morning after loadshedding scheduled between 4 and 6.
Jesus, please, can we employ people who take pride in their jobs for a change, no wonder that in Africa they say everything collapses into place..

How can loadshedding contribute to a leaking geyser?

Our strategically placed cadre at the power utility says everything is going according to plan.

No power cuts for Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address - Eskom's De Ruyter

The ailing utility said it needed to replenish further reserves and might need to extend the power cuts beyond Tuesday.
