Missing Mbomela local municipality schedules #461

Open riaangriesel opened 1 year ago

What area(s) couldn't you find on eskomcalendar.co.za? Please also give the province/municipality, our beautiful country has a surprising number of places that are named the same as each other. If you know what your area is named on EskomSePush, including that also helps a lot.

West Acres, Nelspruit, Mpumalanga EskomSePush - West Acres (14) - Delta (14) Eskom Municipal, Mbombela, Mpumalanga

Where did you hear about eskomcalendar.co.za? This really helps us figure out what's working!

Any other information If you've got any other info you think might be helpful, feel free to leave it here

Hi there, thanks for letting us know about the missing areas!

I've found Delta (14) here: https://eskomcalendar.co.za/ec?calendar=mpumalanga-delta.ics and it looks like it matches up with the schedule that ESP supplies for Delta. Could you let me know if it's not?

For West Acres, Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, it doesn't look like that area has been added to eskom-calendar yet. I can't seem to find an official government source that lists the loadshedding schedules though. I only managed to find this PDF and I'm not sure how up-to-date it is since it just appears on the search results. It also says

Eskom has 3 stages of loadshedding, depending on the seriousness of the power crisis

Which makes me think it isn't super accurate.

I've also found this PDF which, by the name of the file, was last updated in 2017 and only seems to have info about two days in October ):

If you can help me find a source of information for the Mbombela loadshedding schedule, then I'm more than happy to add it to eskom-calendar!

EDIT:

I've actually just found this PDF which looks like it has loadshedding info for Mbombela for seven days of the week and up to stage 4. Not sure if maybe this is the official schedule or not.

Good day

The Delta (14) one is correct. That is also the West Acres one. It is under the substation name which is Delta (14). So if you are able to add that it will be great?

Would greatly appreciate this.

Kind regards

Riaan
