Occam's Razor is a very healthy approach to the standard understanding of conditions and circumstances.
It doesn't account for massive dishonesty, manipulation and clear lack of effort.

Things we're likely all agreed on:
  • Eskom is in reality 100% controled by the ANC since they adjusted the management structure many months ago.
  • The ANC must keep the lights on to a fair degree, but appear shy of doing meaningful work to secure the electric future. (Station repairs taking far too long and often poorly approached, lack of any new very needed coal projects underway, constant revealing of highly abusive profiteering at their highest levels..)
  • The financially troubled ANC are being massively funded by international influencers who are manipulative "climate change emergency" drivers. (And likely all Socialist as well.)
  • The ANC are Socialists (and let's not forget, the policing-role DA are as well). The Socialist ideal is to first destroy the awful structure and gains of the evil Democratic Capitalistic way - fact.

Those who spend enough time on this thread know the figures Eskom ANC release are at least partially doctored on a regular basis.

You cannot apply a scientific approach to understanding the ways of an endlessly abused system. If you're lucky (or they've done it cleverly enough) you'll get glimpses of partial truths at best.
We have the following ANC "interests" involved:
  • Maintain political power (votas mustn't be prosecuted for grabbing free power, all must appear well before the vote)
  • Feed at the electric-grid trough
  • Keep the purse string holders happy
  • Hold on to the capital gains
  • Meet the long term Socialist requirements of the comrades
  • "Deal with" the chaos going on within many of the power stations

The management formula is far from simple then.....

And for those who still believe in the abusive climate story;
(Top, highly respected scientists revealing the truth with truly simple to see facts)

Weekly EAF as of 10th, so basically only really Monday and Tuesday, you can see Tuesday dip did effect it. Though would be interesting to see Wednesday as that was a dramatic uptick there, that 1.2GW must've come online a bit later than expected.
 
Wow SANs have so little trust

The diesel budget is expected to be lower for the next financial year according to Eskom, you honestly can't win with people who are allergic to facts.

You're surprised that social media is doing its job of acting st00pid? :D


Easy enough to achieve this current change though, all Eskom ANC have to do is cut down on the quiet extra maintenance... quietly of course.

Would be fantastic if we could get back to 11GW of 2021 era, or even the 9GW of 2020
 
Wow SANs aren't trusting. Diesel being burnt like crazy, power stations run at full force.
Though to be honest the last part is actually how they are supposed to be EAF of coal is ideally 80%.

They made a 20 billion loss because they burn diesel like crazy.
