That is exactly what Adr was hired to do, bring online 4000MW he failed and put us back another 2000MWWe already have 18000MW installed sitting waiting. Just fix 1/3rd of it and ta da, no load shedding, no need to procure anything, or install anything, or force anything, just fix it.
Several times, but that's not my main concern.
So Kusile coming back on, what's the other 1000?We already have 18000MW installed sitting waiting. Just fix 1/3rd of it and ta da, no load shedding, no need to procure anything, or install anything, or force anything, just fix it.
What you mean other 1k? We have 18k in break downs. That 3x stage 6's. There is no need to procure anything, or 'aggressive against demand', just fix a third of the breakdowns and problem solved
Meant the "by December extra 4000 bla bla" part
Ah, not a clue
Where do you get your strange ideas from?
Uh generally the shower or the toilet .. signal ain't great there so gives me time to think you know
Won't help much, unless said muncipalities have big industries in them. Remember they are currently cutting off the people who only use 30% of the total power, the pool is small. Big industry uses most of the power and it is barely effected.
Problem is - the people in those municipalities may be paying their 'leccy bills faithfully, but the cadres in charge of said muni used the money For Other Things Like Extra Large KFC Bukkits And Flashy Cars, while not paying Eskom a single cent.
So Jo'burg industry is the culprit, when there's mist?
Bwahaha yeah
. Though actually I have noticed a lot more smog lately, wonder if more people are now using fires and such for warming and cooking.
Let me tell you a story...
Most of JHB still has someone go out and flip a switch... I was told I was lying, but even City Power sent out a statement saying 75% of JHB is still manual at the moment.
Trust me, even the automated ones are being flipped manually... it's a ****ing joke of a system they have
At 500w you can supply your whole house? Do you live like a monk or something?Happiness.
Almost done with my installation. One set of panels connected. Second string getting connected next week. Even one string should be more than enough to carry my house load during the day (and today is very overcast)

I use 3 units a day, 5 if you add the inverter overhead
Hell yeah, just don't feed back more than you use. I would give them 100 units per month to cover maintenance.Happiness.

Now this begs the question, since I don't have prepaid and confirmed I have a spinning disk meter, should I feed back?
