poweralert stage 2.....

[Gordon_R]

It's hilarious how we know power demand is lower on Sunday than on Saturday yet it will suspiciously have higher stages than Saturday - at least, for the moment.

It doesn't make a lot of sense, but 'replenishing reserves' on Sunday is necessary before the working week starts on Monday.

Think they aren't shedding, as power alert says nothing till 5am

Nice of them to announce it. Do they think "doing us favours" absolves them of that responsibility??

Just hope enough of their voters remember these days of chaos

Idiots just turned us off, so even that isn't helping work it out anymore.

We went from Stage 6 to suspended most of the weekend.

It's all bollocks anyway. To quote Shakespeare, 'Something is rotten in the state of Denmark'

For anyone who has been ignoring their latest BS... they say they're now catching up maintenance of previously woke-neglected units, but they've also been making parallel promises about that for years.
To some degree sure but I'll believe it if I see it.

And they must obviously still be voted out top priority, no they don't get endless chances and they've been lying yet again until Cyril opened his (suspicious) mouth.

Whatever...

Saved by the wind... must get some helicopters ready to hover over them for when it stops

Now the question is how much emergency was there, and therefore what will become normal during the week for the next few months?

Even if they wanted to (doubtful) I think they now know S6 is going to cause too much of a civil & business eruption. Think we'll see 4/5 at worst, 3/4 mostly.

I doubt we'll see regular weekend full suspensions.

Also the demand gets higher with stage 6
