The Major Electricty Users Group offers an excellent service toNew Zealand through its monitoring of the current storage levels and estimating the chancs of blackouts ocurring. It produces a weekly scorecard which is available on its website (the latest scorecard is unfortuunately not up yet but we did get a copy e-mailed yesterday). This is the conclusion to yesterday's e-mail
We are now in the 7th week following the breach of MINZONE on 14th April. If the 1992 inflow sequence continues then black-outs might start in about 5½ weeks time, ie 7th July. There remains a chance of significant rainfall, but that looks less likely as we enter winter.
