Bloody hell. Where did it go?
I see a total of 18 041MW is offline. Imagine if it was not? We'd have no more LS.

Almost but still funny that one city uses almost the same as an entire shthole country.
No LS? No no no, hopefully permeant stage 2 at least instead of 6

Stage 4 was the good time, but a past memory now

Nothing to see or worry about here. The corrupt elements at eskom also have families to feed. How will they beat Januworry without a couple of extra emergency repairs?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a time where the loadshedding schedule only went up to stage 6? Wonder when we are gonna get a stage 10 schedule, and at that point, what will collapse faster. Whatever is left of the econemy or Eskom?
At the rate we are going, it will be stage 8 by Friday
On a serious note; I do wonder if we will breach the mythical stage 7 barrier.

I don't think so, we were on stage 6 at night indefinitely so who knows with them
That's correct. Later stages were added in 2014 or these about I think

I think it's a certainty
I guess we will see how close we are to stage 7 with how many OCGT are in use when we get the update later

So I said (jokingly) on wednesday it'll be stage 6.
And here we are.

Not seeing where this stage 6 is happening:

Station build-up for the last 7 days - Eskom Data Portal
This shows how resources were used to build-up the demand over the past 7 days, and it includes both generation and demand side resources that Eskom has contracts with.

They aren't burning diesel during the day anymore at all according Yelland. Only emergencies and peak + 5k lost since yesterday too apparentlyNot seeing where this stage 6 is happening:

That's not what he is talking about. Look at manual load reduction part of graph. Far below 6000MW
