WHY GEYSER BLANKETS ?<br />

ESKOM has to save 10% - 20% electricity<br />

immediately for the next 5 -10 years<br />

Govt aims to install 1m solar <strong>geyser</strong>s over<br />

3 years to save 600 MW, but industry does<br />

not manufacture that many SWHs<br />

Hence, <strong>Eskom</strong> sponsored 200 000 Geyser<br />

Blankets to the Western Cape during 2006<br />

power outages to reduce standing losses.<br />

During M&V audits, CPUT M&V team also<br />

advised householders to have temps<br />

set at 550C
