Five Eskom units fail - Load-shedding could be imminent

Thanks so the stupid app sent a false notification.. No surprise.
Back down to 14 960MW breakdowns I see... the same number that has not changed since 2019.

Until next week fellows... See you in the next Stage 2.
May your batteries (or generator) be with you
May your Gurkin be with you Murkin lol. Poephol that blows hot and cold depending on the thread he's in at the time. Playing a game on MYBB. We see youuuuu
 
Still butthurt about a bit of Photoshop I see... and resorts to calling people names. XD
Let's see.... tomorrow maybe de Ruyter is a **** again. Next day he's a hero. That's what you do. Dangerous personally.

Best to put you on ignore.

Total demand: 26 333MW
ILS 0MW, VPS 0MW
Eskom OCGT's Utilized: 14
IPP OCGT's Utilized: 0
Renewable Generation: 2 308MW (Wind 1 948MW, CSP 360MW)
Available Generation Capacity: 28 699MW

Some good Renewable usage, but still loads of diesel being used.

This is weird though, not sure why they used diesel, we had the 2GW backup.

Perhaps using diesel over weekends to fill the pumped storage reservoirs. It makes 'sense' if you anticipate further breakdowns during the week, and want to avoid load shedding at all costs for PR reasons...

It would in that regards I suppose.
