S.Africa: Signs of future Collapse: Eskom increases load-shedding without notice
(000228.79-:E-000157.73:N-:R-SU:C-30:V)
[I've noticed for a long time that things happen – unexpectedly with electricity. It is fine then suddenly there's a problem. This shows how chaotic they really are, and this is a sign of future collapse. If you see this pattern getting worse, then you know a huge collapse is coming. Jan]Eskom has increased rotational power cuts to stage 3. The higher stage of load-shedding started at 18:11, the power utility said in a brief statement on Wednesday night.
It said this was due to higher-than-anticipated demand.
The rest of Eskom’s planned load-shedding timetable remains the same as announced earlier today.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the utility said its breakdowns stood at 15,089MW, while planned maintenance had increased to 7,147MW.
In the past 24 hours, the utility had only managed to return one generating unit to service at Duvha Power Station.
At the same time, it took a generating unit each at Lethabo, Kendal and Kriel power stations offline for repairs.
There were also delays in returning units to service at Hendrina and Medupi and two units at Tutuka power station.
Crucially, five open-cycle gas turbines (OCGTs) at Ankerlig power station were taken offline this morning for a planned upgrade of the plant’s control system.
Eskom typically uses OCGTs to supplement generation during the peak demand periods in the evening.
With each of Ankerlig’s OCGTs capable of contributing a maximum of about 147MW of capacity, the temporary shutdown takes roughly 735MW off the grid.

Why is it that whites are held to a different moral standard than everybody else while AT THE SAME TIME, they all tell us that we are all exactly EQUAL? In what way were the actions of Dylann Roof in the USA any different to the actions of Nelson Mandela in South Africa?

Black Christians in South Africa are no friends of the Whites. These disgusting people have turned on the Whites many time. Here is Tutu lying and pretending that Apartheid was WORSE than the (mythical) Jewish Holocaust (which never happened).
