but it wasn't running when it blew up.

That one was actually, it was one of the others that wasn't. What's scary is last year we didn't have those 3 Kusile units and we did better, this year we had more Kusile online for a bit and still had issues. Eskom really is a joke.

It was under "maintenance" when it exploded, and was because of the "maintenance" why it exploded.

Anything under stage 4 is like xmas to us guys in durban.

Joburg is just casually in like stage 10 so dropping to stage 4 is moot. Every loadshedding slot is now 6 to 12+ hours. Yesterday we were scheduled for 1200 to 1600, only came back 1830 and then 2000 to 2200 and only restored this morning at 0600... Been weeks of this now

Stage 4 is not xmas for us durbanites, stage 3 is.

We lost about 2516MW in a day. The return of the Ma....Stage 5/6 incoming .

Matla Unit 6 is about 600MW if I heard right? Something else broke besides De Ruyter's heart?

Would be nice if we could see 29GW like last year

Will be interesting to see peak demand today - I suspect even with Eskom's mediocre baseload capacity, we shouldn't be on Stage 4. Probably Stage 2 in years gone by.

Saw a headline on Business Day TV - Zimbabwe now cutting power 19 hours a day!!

So I suppose we make the most of the "advantage" we have..

The way our area keeps stealing up to an hour here and there, I'm thinking it's worse than they're saying right now.

Enjoy it while we have it ladies and gentlemen...
