You mean they've guessed it, they can't confirm anything

I see no reason to doubt this forecast.

You mean like the exact same schedule from last week?

I don't know what you're implying but Eskom would never drop a schedule and then change it suddenly all willy nilly.

This is how they guess the schedule:

I am not complaining but our power did not go off as it was supposed to today. No shedding at all. Feels kind of weird almost.

Seems like kind of lowish unplanned outage of 12.6k MW for stage 4. Don't we normally need like 15k MW unplanned outages for that?

Yeah who knows with them

When do we expect to see an emergency announcement of moving to stage 6?

Later today or tomorrow?

City Power are like this

There is as usual no stock of mini subs as they keep getting vandalised as they call it. So it could be ten or more days.

CP are saying 7 to 10 days, but some areas have been down 10 days and their update is still the same.

Yep, here's the data and it's as I remembered. The unplanned outages is around the lowest it's been for the last year. Yet we were at stage 6 a couple days ago and now stage 4 planned for the whole week. They are hiding something. Things are worse than they are reporting.

Of course they're hiding something... they're always hiding something and lying about everything
