[Lupus]

So, they're corrupt thieving bastards? They could just build proper power stations and be done with it?

I mean they could, but they have mattresses to stuff

They have been since they started doing it, the only thing they don't differentiate out is the OCGT generation and it's effect.

I mean they skip days sometimes.

 

[Lupus]

I mean they skip days sometimes.

Yeah they do, but I mean sometimes they skip load shedding too.

 

[wingnut771]

Yeah they do, but I mean sometimes they skip load shedding too.

at 6pm?

at 6pm?

I've heard this narrative once... It was spoken of in hush tones

 

[Lupus]

Ok so not as doom and gloom as I thought... But still an increase. People stop using heaters

Well it was to be expected, the muppet of electricity did say they had sufficient resources to handle the cold... That was the key

 

[DarkSt0rm]

Well we just went off an hour early

That would be fault, probably due to the grid taking strain again with it being off 3 times a day. Cause yeah stage3/4 combo is basically just stage 4, especially when it's only stage 3 for 7 hours.

Stage 5/6 loading

Breakdowns have increased to 16,313MW of generating capacity while the generating capacity out of service for planned maintenance is reduced to 3,478MW

Grrrrrr.

 

[Lupus]

What annoys me is, Wednesday and Thursday I would've not had any load shedding if it remained on the Stage 3 thing. Sigh always too good to be true.

 

[wingnut771]

I'm going off at 2pm. Normally it's only Monday and Thursday.
