And shortly after that all the load shedding schedules will be updated to only cut power when the rates are at their lowest.

Station build-up for the last 7 days - Eskom Data Portal
This shows how resources were used to build-up the demand over the past 7 days, and it includes both generation and demand side resources that Eskom has contracts with.

System hourly demand and available capacity - Eskom Data Portal
Hourly demand is compared against available capacity, to indicate the amount of surplus/shortfall there was. Available capacity must be matched with the total RSA contracted demand.

The unofficial one says no-one can hide from it, except Beke Cele who will deny ever hearing about itStill, no media release from CoJI was so hopeful for the briefest of moments that I forgot how ****ed over you get as soon as that ember of hope gets the tiniest bit of oxygen in this country lol
Anyway, sounds like Durbs is doing something similar so here's hoping... again

Whatever is going on they must be regularly fixing the sabotaged units. Maybe even negotiating with the terrorists, they seem to know them.

I'm not so sure. Judging by the poweralert numbers yesterday, it looks like the 28GW was only temporary and its back to 24GW. I'm keeping the bookmarks for now. Lets see what tomorrows chart looks like.

Do the Karpowerships use diesel or LPG?

They can use either (with modifications). However the contract is for LNG (not LPG) which requires high pressure tanker ships, and are subject to demand and price spikes:

Neither. Natural gas imported with US dollars.

Technically (almost) all fuels are imported, or priced in dollar equivalents. In particular LNG went through a huge price spike (several hundred percent) last year due to the Ukraine conflict. Prices have reduced somewhat, but natural gas is by far the most volatile, and difficult to transport.

Coal isn't.
They finished burning all the evidence
Nah I'm pretty sure that 28GW was a mistake/typo and it was supposed to be 26GWwingnut771

I think it's part of Karpower contract that we must use their fuel so they can coin it.
