SA power grid collapsing - public anger rising
It is very doubful that the public has even started to understand the true extent of the ongoing catastrophe that is Eishkom.
According to MoneyWeb, electricity expert Doug Kuni has said that all South Africans can do now about the current electricity situation is to buy candles and a generator. "You are going to need it for the next five to ten years," he said.
And the experts have left. He added.
The Stage 3 "loadshedding" over the weekend clearly showed that Eskom is in a state of serious decline.
Eskom is now producing less power than it was 10 years ago. Yet the number of users have grown dramatically, and intentionally. What is happening was bound to happen, and was predicted more than 15 years ago. Yet the Government did nothing.
