EskomSePush's latest stats - 120 days of power cuts in 2022

[Jan]

Scary load-shedding statistic revealed

If Eskom could implement 2022's load-shedding continuously, the rotational power outages would have lasted for roughly four months without interruption.

That is according to data published by the well-known load-shedding app EskomSePush.

De Ruyter and his team sure earning their money. Worth their weight in gold as ANC appointees.

"The worker confessed he had done so to secure more work at the station for his company."

This has been at the core of the issue for a very long time.
Many moons ago I worked with a guy that used to be involved with IT systems and software built for Eskom.... he had many stories of workers that would literally threaten each other with death when someone actually does the work because that person is seen as a threat to the project completing, leaving them without work.

How would you even begin to resolve something like that?

Lets not forget. The ANC created load shedding in 2008. For 14 years they have continued looting and been complacent to corruption and done nothing. Don't blame Eskom, blame the ANC.

Yeah. The ANC is in extreme urgency to fix this matter.
So far 20 years into the urgency.

Notifier does not work that well in Buffalo City, so I'll stick with Eskomsepush, thanks.

Should tell them to fix it. Having a week's schedule when you open the app is amazing.

Since when does Eskom have a whole week's schedule ? It changes by the hour.

 

[sdrawk]

So we expect 6 straight months of loadshedding next year, then?

Yeah, those stats will improve significantly on 1 Jan 2023

Sound optimistic to me.
All I know is that coat hanger holding together out local sub station is going to have one k*k 2023.

What's this place going to be like in 5 years.

a week's schedule, as reliable as Eskom itself.

Like any other failed state in Africa

Namibia is failed?

Any other failed state... that implies the ones we know are shitholes like SA e.g. Zimbabwe, Malawi, DRC, etc
