South Africa's worst power cuts ever in 2022 - and there are still 170 days to go

[Jan]

2022 is already South Africa's worst year for load-shedding — with 170 more days to go

Data from the popular load-shedding app EskomSePush (ESP) shows that 2022 will either become the worst year of load-shedding within the next few days or already has, depending on how you measure it.

ESP co-founder Herman Maritz provided MyBroadband with the latest total number of days of load-shedding the app measured over the past year.

What's the financial loss & jobs to SA for the past 3 years only on Eskom blackouts? I understand Covid had an impact as well, but that aside. Does SA keep stats like it? The way I see it is because of ongoing blackouts there can't be economic growth. It must have shrunk? Just asking.
