Eskom data - October 2025

Not anything too interesting this month - EAF down again due to an increase in unplanned outages, but still 'ok' overall.

Using those diesel generators a bit more again as a result

Lowest imports, maybe ever?

The big drop in supply and demand from last month was not a one-off.

not visible in the monthly graphs yet, but the other Koeberg unit is busy powering up again. AFAIK this is the end of the cycling/swopping of the two units for refurbishment and refuelling, so we should have both running simultaneously for the first time in years.

I learned that we store all high-level waste on the Koeberg site itself, and that it's full, so we're buying expensive 'dry storage casks' from the US in order to store more, also on-site, but those are also full now?
