OK I just read this:
Eskom is to suspend scheduled load shedding from Monday

Eskom is to suspend scheduled load shedding from Monday, May 5, said the utility's chief executive officer Jacob Maroga on Wednesday.

He said: "We are seeing evidence of increased energy savings from municipalities and Eskom is optimistic that further reductions to reach our 10% savings target are possible."
This is from MYADSL
Now when will see cheap generators UPS's etc.
The more I think about this the madder I get. My guess is ESKOM are just scared about the claims coming in for switches transformers etc.
