Two Days of ETSA load shedding

[Sojourner]

It was reported on the ABC today that yet again ETSA were load shedding and turning off the power to various suburbs.

Yet Mitsubishi are not there, Holden are not working at capacity either, and we still have no buffer in electricity and then we are to electrify the railway network and provide electricity for a Desalination plant - WTF????

[hearts on fire]

apparently you can go on some site and check when your power is going off, they are doing each suburb in 30 minute time slots or something.

We'll be 'load sharing' all year round.

thoughr we were load shedding because of a problem down in Tassie. BTW where is Good news mike to tell us what is wrong with trams

just a question, since i am getting solar panels soon, do I keep generating power when power goes out or does it turn off for safety reasons? (am going grid connection)
