So things are looking better. 5 Units returned since Friday and they expecting 4 more units to return to service today. The Cahora Bassa line has been boosted to 850MW. Looking good for the week ahead. The total blackout is imminent guys are probably so disappointed now...

Note the wording...”temporary relief”

Yup... my prediction is either the 7th or the 14th of April.. stage 2 and then stage 4

Charge your batteries

I assume they are still burning millions worth of diesel every day. Have they placed the next shipment order yet? Or are they waiting for the next crisis so they can issue a tender?

Well if they racked up a diesel bill of R5 billion according to 702 then yeah who knows.

I do not think forward planning is part of the Eskom culture.

Well their diesel just arrived on Thursday so that would probably explain the return to the "norm".

Was wondering what you meant, i even went back to check that chrome wasn't loading from cache or something. Usually Eksdom.co.za home page shows up to date/time alerts.
