Backing up in Eastern Cape

The Eastern Cape runs from car plants to Karoo sheep farms, and the backup needs differ along the way. Nelson Mandela Bay supplies Gqeberha and Kariega, Buffalo City supplies East London, smaller towns run their own networks, and Eskom covers much of the former Transkei and the farms. Cable theft is a frequent cause of outages in both metros, and ageing substations and long rural lines add more. Factories in the metros want 3 phase backup for production and cold storage, homes want the basics covered, and farms around Graaff-Reinet need pumps and fences. Coastal wind carries salt and fine sand into equipment, and inland winters are cold, so ask where the battery will live.
