Of those 12, only about 4 is usable while you're awake and at home. Loose 4 while sleeping and 4 while at work and then that is also of they manage to turn it back on.

My info source isn't updating - did they announce if Sat. morning change is @ 5:00 as usual? Did they say down to stage 4, or not confirmed?
TIA

No, the point is that power alert chart is pointless guesswork.

Well I guess we have to try find clues somewhere.
But lies among other issues definitely continue.

Wind is showing promise though several projects need to be rolled out to make a dent. These bids are sluggish. Bid Window 5 which totals 2600MW are currently being signed, I heard yesterday on SAfm 3 of 25 projects were signed which is ~400MW.

What kinda shocks me is stuff like https://www.kathusolarpark.co.za/ is not even currenly feeding to the grid... From what a heard its being held up by the prosessesm. I can't confirm 100% but from the website I can't see anywhere they state they are busy feeding the grid.

I think that's now commercial and feeding to the grid and would be the CSP listed in Eskom generation data.
