Om in hierdie dae \u2019n ekonomie- artikel te skryf wat nie raakpunte met elektrisiteit het nie, is byna ondenkbaar. Dit is soos om die olifant in die kamer te ontken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ek kyk nou die dag op die beurtkrag app hoeveel tyd ons op \u2019n dag weens beurtkrag verloor. Op daardie spesifieke dag was die krag op vlak 5 vir 9\u00bd uur af. Op vlak 6 sou dit 11\u00bd uur wees en op \u2019n moontlike vlak 8 sou dit 13\u00bd uur gewees het; net meer as helfte van die dag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deesdae werk feitlik alle huishoudelike toestelle met elektrisiteit. Toe ek \u2019n kind was, was \u2019n transistorradio \u2019n groot vooruitgang en dit kon met krag of batterye werk. Nou werk al my radio\u2019s en musiektoestelle net met elektrisiteit. So tensy \u2019n mens een of ander sonkrag gekoppelde batterystelsel of kragopwekker het, kan jou w\u00eareld nogal stil raak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baie besighede het deesdae kragopwekkers, maar die ho\u00eb brandstofprys laat hul kragrekeninge die hoogte in skiet. Party dae is die krag gedurende normale werksure skaars vyf uur lank aan. Die skade aan die ekonomie is enorm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eskom besluit wie sal wanneer en waar kragvoorsiening h\u00ea en die verbruikers moet maar aanpas. Maar wat is die verbruikers se ervaring van wat ons moontlik \u2019n \u201ckragloosheid-pandemie\u201d kan noem? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op Facebook lees ek wat \u2019n vriendin in die spysenieringsbedryf s\u00ea: \u201cEk is \u2018daardie glas is half vol\u2019 mens (iemand met \u2019n positiewe ingesteldheid). Na \u2019n \u2018hectic<\/span>\u2019 naweek slaap ek sleg . . . en om dan wakker te skrik en die krag is af . . . in die \u2018catering<\/span>\u2019-bedryf is dit nie meer snaaks nie. Die gedurige planne maak, maak my gek.\u201d Iemand se kommentaar daarop: \u201cEk kry skaars kosgemaak vir twee, wat nog te s\u00ea \u2018catering<\/span>\u2019 vir baaaaie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iemand anders reken: \u201cGlad nie meer snaaks nie. Dit laat \u2019n mens se bloeddruk styg en jy is pal gestres.\u201d Nog een s\u00ea: \u201cJip, ons is mos georganiseerd. Met die skielike bevliegings van Eskom raak mens se senuwees gedaan.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens \u2019n berig op Netwerk24<\/i> het \u2019n restauranteienaar genoem dat dit hom R10 000 in 10 dae gekos het om sy kragopwekker te gebruik. Ek weet van restaurante wat al begin het om hul deure tydens beurtkrag te sluit omdat hulle dit nie kan bekostig om vir sulke lang ure hul eie krag op te wek nie. En dit nadat die restaurantbedryf reeds swaar gebuk gegaan het onder die Covid-19-pandemie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ja, sonder krag word die ekonomie gekniehalter en besighede ly groot finansi\u00eble skade. Volgens die Sakeliga kan volgehoue beurtkrag op vlakke wat tussen 4 en 6 wissel aanleiding gee tot \u2019n daling van tussen 5% en 10% in die land se Bruto Binnelandse Produk (BBP). Dit kan tot veel groter werkverliese lei in \u2019n ekonomie wat reeds steier onder rekordho\u00eb werkloosheidsyfers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Vriend van my wat ingeboude kaste bou, noem dat hy op dae wat die krag te lank gaan af wees, nie sy werkers laat werk toe kom nie. Hy s\u00ea hy kan dit nie bekostig om hulle vir \u2019n volle dag te betaal as hulle net drie of vier uur sal kan werk nie. Vir baie besighede beteken geen elektrisiteit dat geen handel plaasvind nie en het hulle geen keuse as om hul arbeidsmag te verklein nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, hoe lyk die pad vorentoe? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daar is twee belangrike groeperings wat elk \u2019n rol in hierdie krisis speel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eerstens is daar die regering wat \u2019n sleutelrol speel in die bestuur en bedryf van Eskom. Hul politieke agenda laat egter ekonomiese beginsels en goeie dienslewering aan die agterspeen suig. Ongelukkig is dit soos \u2019n reuse meulsteen om die nek van elke Suid-Afrikaner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aan die ander kant is daar die privaatsektor en verbruikers wat daarna smag om net te sien dat alles werk. Hoewel daar baie private instansies is wat graag \u2019n bydrae tot die nasionale kragnetwerk wil maak, word hulle tot dusver verhinder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Met die krisis wat ons tans beleef, het dit nou dringend noodsaaklik geword dat die regering sal begin hande vat met die privaatsektor. Ons politici word verkies om die land op so \u2019n wyse te dien dat Suid-Afrikaners die beste voordeel daaruit kan kry. Dit is egter myle verwyder van wat ons tans beleef.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
