    back to electricity blackouts

    this was in the Financial Review

    Gas and coal failures were behind NSW's power scare: AEMO
    More than 2000 megawatts of coal and gas generation failed during NSW's power scare this month, when AGL Energy ordered Australia's largest smelter to curtail its production for more than three hours to avoid blackouts across the state.

    It just goes to demonstrate how far ahead of our time and the curve us South Africans really are.

    We invented power-shedding and now the rest of the world is trying to copy us, LOL.

    Next thing you know your prime minister will also be building himself a $250M private estate with $250M "security features" and a "fire pool" in the countryside somewhere.
    True freedom is the greatest gift a man can possess, yet is the one thing most easily and innocently given away, to crafty curses and binds cleverly disguised as blessings and gifts, in the pursuit of supposed achievement, status and power.
