2020 Spokesperson said it was cheaper at the IPP contractually, probably cause they were supposed to be on gas by now

Well I mean that is Chris's expertise, does mean electricity is going to get even more pricey.Quite a few company names with the word "Green" in that

Blame the unnecessary geysers.

I wonder if there is any comment from the Eskom peanut gallery. You only hear from them when there are no problems and they want to blow their own horn.

Dissecting the data behind Eskom’s turnaround - amaBhungane
At 5am on Tuesday 26 March, loadshedding came to an abrupt end. Since then, South Africa has enjoyed 190 days without loadshedding, including our first winter in five years where the lights stayed on. AmaBhungane took a deep dive into Eskom’s data to find out why. The simple answer is: demand is...

One unit is 500mw, though weird that unit 6 had issues 2 years ago with a fire, are we sure it's real or just not someone reporting on something from 2 years ago?

Well the thing is, back in the past we weren't constantly told about things like this, unless we were needing to know, it's only with the loadshedding being so high from 2021 till first quarter 2024 people have been hyper concentrated on Eskom. I mean 900MW went down with Koeberg and we stormed through it.
There was a fire at Kusile in 2018, Majuba had a fire in 2019, Duvha had a unit explode in 2003, Koeberg had a jellyfish problem in 2005 (yes first time). I mean international imports have been down 700mw for months now.
