vankelvin:

Is that suppose to be a compliment
You and Vawulence be like 6&9

That is how I normally give my compliment oo

jl115:
that's captalism

You seem to think Communism and socialism don't deal with demand, supply and price which are pure economics..

jl115:
Isn't Texas the USAs largest energy producer? Isn't it also the largest producer of renewable energy?..... Isn't it also the state with one of the cheapest electricity prices?

Also their 2021 power crisis was due to weather evidence as well

none of your submission has anything to do with what we are talking about...

Anyway, nice deflection

jl115:
show me where this was tried in a perfect captalist system.... I'll wait

Texas wanted it own grid witch was separate from the US interconnected grid network... In creating this separate grid, it ended up with pockets of IPPs here and there who were only interested in supplying electricity to the rich neighborhoods in in the major cities.

Today Texas has three grids interconnected and serving the entire state.
New York is another example

jl115:
there isn't any my bru... That's my point

You're just commenting for commenting sake ... So, this should tell you that it has nothing to do with capitalist, socialist or communist systems.

It is just a matter of demand and supply as well as price.

jl115:
nope

Well, do it and you'll get the same results

jl115:
shouldn't happen in a perfect free market

In the best of free markets where it was first tried, it ended up being a disaster

obaaderemi:
.

why are you marking space.?

rvp2018:
Capitalism doesn't work for everything...if eskom lose top 100 customers to independent power producers..it will not be able to supply millions. Power sector demand a little complicated to left to capitalism.Eskom should be split orderly to ensure the units are viable.First seperate producers, distributors and suppliers.Just40 is right...you're digging a bigger hole like Nigeria did.Ipp will focus few profitable business like a mine or big manufacturing company...the millions of south Africa who need few units but live thousands of kilometers from power producers will left as Eskom become bankrupt

I can't believe you are making sense
Where have you been keeping this wisdom?

Herh

jl115:
the beauty of captalism and non monopolies my bru..... You pay for the service you get.... I don't have to pay a 33% hike for Eskom when I don't even get electricity

hmm

If they segregate the power grid, you might end up on the side with the worse outage

kikuyu1:
WTF do you get this dycknoise!? On second thought NEVER mind!

when will you start making sense on here ?

Anyway, I wonder what this comment was meant to communicate

jl115:
they are fixing it by allowing IPPs to sell directly to customers, however this should've happened years ago....as for Eskom, its a lost cause imo, it just needs to stay alive a couple of years untill there is a sufficient number of IPPs... In general the Western Cape is already a stage or 2 lower on the load shedding scale because its producing its own electricity

wouldn't that be a mess ...?

How will you ensure price uniformity and stability when IPPs sell directly to consumers instead of a monopolized distributor?

IPP selling directly to customers will only create electricity grid segregation whereby certain places will have more electricity while other place have less

AfriqueDuZuid:
Do you know how much gas is needed for winter in Germany?

don't get yourself worked out, it is all part of the energy mix I Just posted

AfriqueDuZuid:
what percentage is renewable in Germany?

41% which is more than fossil fuels

Say hello to the Grand Mirage

rvp2018:
Africa countries led by South Africa should raise the 80b dollars required to get the grand inga dam ...it would be world largest power station...and can provide base load for southern, central and east Africa countries

it will be a waste of 80 billion dollars just like Germany wasted 80 billion dollars on renewables

rvp2018:
Only geothermal can rival hydro in renewable energy ability to be used as base load though it's still very expensive....hydro power investment should be top priority... getting grand inga dam in Congo would fix many countries problems in Africa

seem you didn't understand the Convo we were having ....


Next time take your time to read

AfriqueDuZuid:
They haven't reached a good capacity yet that's why

They actually have a good capacity, infact I think they come first when you talk about renewable energy.

Basically, current renewable energy tech isn't designed to be used on an industrial scale Hence why it have been a challenge for Germany and has mostly failed to make a real impact

Ethiopia and Sudan not irrelevant kenya

so boldly clinging to the legacy of others

Bruh, I'm tired already

Tell these mofos that uptil date Kente production is done locally and manually

Theyve heard.... And there's enough production for 30 million Ghanaians as well as export

vankelvin:
They are trying so hard to project the inefficiencies of their forefathers on us

People of no relevant history always feel that inferior.
They must de-legitimize others in order to feel good about their irrelevance

vankelvin:
They don't know

Even though the Asantehene did not attend his mother funeral, the Asantehene was the first he called to thank

vankelvin:
Yet they claim to learn history in school

rvp2018:
Kenya population was not a million hundreds years ago

did Kenya exist in the 1100s to 1900s ?


The figure is a commutative for all East Africa, don't act dumb

rvp2018:
Everything existed...only problem was mass production...that what Europeans figured out..use it to enslaved you and colonize us..yours was double whammy.Hails the queen for saving you

It was already mass produced here hence why ever family including the poorest slave had them.

I like how your argument keep shifting..

Anyway, the Europeans only used military agreements and our violent tribal wars to gain a foothold here and not cloths.

That is also a documented history ... Let's see your next line of argument.

During those days, because your society was not educated, they had no idea what a military agreement was.

gallivant:
Coonery, at it's finest.

the internet is there for you

rvp2018:
You were not able to mass produce clothes so when dutch showered up with clothes you sold your own mother's.The British stopped slave trade

so now your argument has shifted from the Europeans brought cloth here to what we had wasn't enough ?

Anyway let me burst that bubble for you, the most traded community were guns, gold and slaves.

The dutch only started trading clothes in the late 1800s.

Learn your history and you won't have to distort those of others to feel relevant

rvp2018:
Again you need to take the prescribed medicine..mental illness is not a joke

madman get help .... You can't fight against your own history

rvp2018:
The start of the usual madness...take your meds...you were getting better

I like it when you can't dispute fact

Tantrums of an ignoramus

rvp2018:
What number and where are they now

17 to 18 million east Africans were sold to Arabs and Indian slave traders

vankelvin:
Let me clear your ignorance
Kente is a woven cloth not a printed cloth. Our forefathers were weaving Kente long before the first white man set foot on our shores

Even the printed Tie and Dye existed before the first European came to West Africa.

It was largely popularized by the Nigerians

vankelvin:
But Ashanti's are still relevant and powerful than any tribe in kenya

Even king Charles take a bow Infront of Asantehene
