#Eskom

Eskom's additional R54 billion from tariffs is set to be challenged in court once more, as the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) faces accusations of concealing the irrationality behind its decision regarding the power utility's revenue. This legal dispute highlights ongoing tensions surrounding energy pricing and regulatory practices in the country.

A court has issued a ruling that halts Eskom's ultimatum regarding the cut-off or take-over of services in the Dr Beyers Naudé Municipality. The decision confirms the legal requirements necessary for the Distribution Agency Agreement, clarifying the obligations and processes involved in the municipality's dealings with Eskom.
