Surprises me, the continued growth after 1998. I thought Eskom hit its peak round about then. I certainly don't recall many new power plants being commissioned between 98 and 2008.

There was more generation than what was needed so a few power stations were mothballed then brought back.

Paints a pretty picture, doesn’t it?

The number is still higher than it was pre-'94 so the ANC has clearly improved it.

ANC Cadres had not been deployed yet.

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.

Idiots can't seem to resolve the problem they have with the substation. Our power was supposed to be out from 22:00 - 0:00 but only came back at 06:00 before going out at 08:00 again. If this keeps up I'm going to lose it.

Is anyone really surprised over an ANC minister having no idea what their job entails, other than getting paid?

Lol they are back to paying the smelters to not run

Business idea - get a smelter and have Eskom pay you not to run it.

3rd time in 2 weeks that they stole the cables in our area with downtime of between 12 to 48 hours. They must f.cking hang those bastards.

Fsckers eventually get whats coming to them.

How is that possible if the power is off?

It happens when the power returns and they're caught off guard.

It seems coal is holding, it must be the 11 units they were talking about. I would have thought 11 units would have made a much bigger difference:
