The price of electricity will increase this week, following Eskom\u2019s implementation of its new electricity tariff of between 12.72% and 12.74%.<\/p>\n
This after the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) determined the increases in December last year.<\/p>\n
The increases are as follows:<\/p>\n
Local authority tariff charges: 1 July 2024 \u2013 30 June 2025: 12.72%<\/p>\n
Eskom direct customers: 1 April 2024 \u2013 31 March 2025:<\/p>\n
All tariff charges except the affordability subsidy charge: 12.74%.<\/p>\n
Home light 20A: 12.74%.<\/p>\n
Affordability subsidy charge: 25.24%<\/p>\n
\u201cThe average increase applied to the key industrial and urban tariffs will be 13.29% due to the increase in the affordability subsidy charge. The affordability subsidy charge is raised as a subsidy to the Homelight 20A tariff and is determined by NERSA. This charge exists due to historically lower Homelight 20A tariff increases and is paid by the non-municipal large industrial and urban tariffs.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are no tariff structural changes for 2024\/25, however, Eskom is considering a tariff restructuring submission to NERSA for implementation in 2025\/26,\u201d the power utility said. \u2013 SAnews.gov.za<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
