lol they don't even want to admit if it was tripped or taken offline for repairs:

Grootvlei and Matla power stations either tripped or were taken offline for repairs,” Eskom said in a statement.
Maybe they're unsure

Grootvlei is like 200MW per unit and Matla would be up to 600MW a unit, so those are the ones we worry about. Camden, Grootvlei, Komati and Hendrina have smaller units, so a unit off there won't causing load shedding.

From the data sheet, for the week before they were only burning it during peaks, so not all day.
