Power tariff set to rise to 128c/kWh in 2021 after Eskom wins Nersa battle over R69bn equity injection

3rd Aug 2020Breaking News, EnergyDerrick Markotter

By: Terence Creamer

In a scathing judgment made on July 28, the court declared as illegal the National Energy Regulator of South Africa’s (Nersa’s) decision to deduct a R69-billion equity injection into Eskom from its allowable revenue for the period 2019/20 to 2021/22 and has instructed that the full amount be added back to the utility’s allowable revenue over the coming three years.

Given that the injection comprised three R23-billion-a-year tranches and the fact that Eskom was already into the second year of a three-year tariff determination, Judge Fayeeza Kathree-Setiloane said that the first R23-billion should be added during the 2021/22 financial year.ADVERTISEMENT

This would immediately increase the 2021/22 tariff from the 116.72c/kWh approved on March 7, 2019, as part of the fourth multiyear tariff determination (MYPD4), to 128.24c/kwh.

Under Nersa’s original determination, tariffs were meant to increase by only 5.22% on April 1, 2021.
