What's funny is that this spike is the exact same time as predicted for last year, and it coincides with the norm that energy usage starts spiking from the 20th onward, yet technically it's still lower than 2019 and before, just that Eskom keeps forecasting lower and lower demand as they cannot deliver.

That breakdown figure is insane.

At 400MW on average per generator, that's nearly 40 out of service!

How many are sabotage though, they are in salary negotiations and Eskom has declared deadlock and the unions are not happy.
