Ok why would they be? Please don't think they do this for the RWC? You're giving way to much credit

This is not a small channel to put coverage on Eskom.

What utter rubbish.

Now go contact Eskom distribution and ask them when the pumps are turned on. I was at the facility I did admin for the contractors there, I was laterally inside the building working both day sift and night shift. I suggest you get educated.

Also why would they pump water during peak times back into the system? It is clear you have no idea what Eskom has and how much of that works. If fully functional they can only generate 1000MW but not for very long.

^^ not just until Wed., until further notice.

Ends up 100 hours for us, if they cancel Mon. night in the usual fashion we could reach 124 hours.

My longest was last week, 121 hours between 2am Thursday morning to 4am Tuesday Morning, sadly there is planned maintenance once again for my area on Monday from 8am to 4pm, then LS at 6pm. So we will only have 83 hours.

Beat you


Edit: The new S1 setup makes it even better - 130 hours !!

I dropped the useable SOC on my batteries back to normal. Let's see how long this lasts.

The new S1 if I don't have the maintenance would be 7 days 168 hours

Lol, was said in "tongue & check" and yes due to the rugga at the time, but with the earlier news of S1.... Who knows.... lol

 

[Lupus]

Sadly they did start the maintenance, so the 168 hours isn't gonna happen. So if it comes back at 4pm it'll be 72 hours, though we did have 83 hours prior

Are you asking your lackies to hold off?

 

[Lupus]

Doesn't look good, but no black? Maybe another announcement

 

[Lupus]

Well it was a good run, coal dropped on Monday and OCGT usage again. Not sure why they cancelled LS

For those "good stories" to tell.
