There are 2 groups. The one group gets the money, the other group bails them out.

Technically, sure.

The ANC lose what Eskom loses, same group of peeps.

The ANC nor Eskom can loose, only the tax payers can loose, and they have lost a brighter future for SA, while the ANC top cadres enriched themselves so much that a thousand generations of their offspring never have to work in their lives.

In the words of the Pretoria Mayor:

I hope you have a productive day.

pta east seems to be missing its loadshedding slots, its probably due to them shuffling around things and backfeeding people, they probably cant switch people off like they used to

Eskom wants town to stop using its own solar power to avoid load shedding | The Citizen

The town believes that by forcing them to load shed, Eskom is trying to protect its monopoly on power generation

[dualmeister]

Why? All areas in the WC besides CoCT have the Eskom LS schedule I thought.

The caretaker of the guest house said they do not get load shed and we had none all weekend even when the schedule said the power should be off.

No idea why. Not complaining.
