Possibly who knows anymore months of sabotage that just isn't going away.
The strikes I could understand the power failures but 5 months of continuous load shedding and they can't get the power plants below 16GW outages??
Very suspicious that
Do we know why there are sabotages?
We're told mostly caused by the criminal supply element. There's also rumours of anc in-fighting involved, and some other theories.

Ive got the same deal from 18:00 - 2:30 there is only 2 hours of power.
I'm also working very late tonight on production items and hoping the internet stays up.
Interesting evening in our area.
Due to month-end resets; 4.5 hours off followed by 1.5 hours on (if we're lucky) followed by 2.5 hours off, then later off for most of the daylight morning

I see there's lots of bold comments from them today, since the mention of their wet dream state of disaster hopes.
