New attitude - just getting on with life as we can, Eskom must go play with itself nicely

lol, Eskom'll still break something even when it plays with itself... *snerk*

If they were truly just incompetent we wouldn't keep recovering, let alone able to get back to stage 2 half-day and the rest "a break" - that was just a few days ago BTW....

This is politics, with billions involved.

When is the next national vote again? Pity it can't be tomorrow.

LS will miraculously get fixed just before elections, everyone will cheer the ANC for a job well done, people will sing their praises through the streets as the saviours of the country, mass voting for ANC in every town and city. Just for it to all collapse a couple of months later so that they can continue looting unabated for another 5 years.

I have nothing to do with the ANC. I'm busy destroying Europe, leave me alone!

Think the masses will welcome this in South Africa? I doubt it.

If they're tired enough of LS and can have "justified" & accumulated merit instead.
But for the ones who don't pay for power, they're wasting their time.

Unreal.

We're Shedding 7000mw (Stage 7!) And still running nearly every OCGT we have available to meet demand. Eskom said that we'd only burn diesel in desperate emergency situations, so is that what's happening now?

There are 20 Octgs in the eskom fleet though I've not seen them use 20 for over year, no word on why.

21GW or 22GW in December of 2020, but it was closer to the 16th and they could use all 20 Octgs

So, we may avoid stage 7 after all. Since we returning to stage 5, tomorrow.

Sorry, Ted. You’re wrong. Again.
