Expert Topic: Consumers paying the price for Nersa's costly Eskom tariff mistake Guest: Prof Sampson Mamphweli: Head of energy secretariat, SA National Energy Development Institute (Sanedi)

Die DA sê die Mededingingskommissie se verslag oor lewenskoste bevestig die ANC het sedert 2020 'n mislukte elektrisiteitsbeleid gedryf met pryse wat met 68 persent opgegaan het, meer as dubbeld dié van inflasie. Die party voer aan gesinne word gedwing om tussen kos en elektrisiteit te kies. Die DA-lid, Kevin Mileham, vra vir 'n nuwe prysbeleid, 'n einde aan Eskom se monopolie, en volle aanspreeklikheid vir regulatoriese mislukkings, insluitend die energiereguleerder Nersa se onlangse foutiewe berekening van 54 miljard rand:

Ouers by drie verskillende skole is ontevrede oor die hantering van seksuele oortredings. Die M20-mediaberaad in Johannesburg kyk onder meer na die allerbelangrike kwessie van inligtingsintegriteit. Ontevredenheid neem toe oor NERSA en Eskom se duur fout met kragtariewe. Die Silwermyn-gebied van die Tafelberg Nasionale Park word heropen.

Energy regulator Nersa confirmed in a statement THIS WEEK that it has entered into a settlement with Eskom, following the mistakes it made in determining the utility's revenue for the current and next two financial years. As a result, consumers will have to cough up R54 billion more through higher electricity tariffs, phased in over 2 years. Electricity tarriffs, that had been set to rise at 5,4% and 6.2% are now expected to increase by 8,8 each year in 2026/27 and 2027/28.This is three times higher than the anticipated consumer inflation rate. To help us understand this Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Prof. Samson Mamphweli, energy expert from the South African National Energy Development Institute

Die vakbondfederasie, Saftu, het kommer uitgespreek oor die energiereguleerder, Nersa, se skikkingsooreenkoms van 54-miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand met Eskom. Dit volg nadat Nersa ʼn fout begaan het in die berekening van die kragvoorsiener se inkomste vir die huidige en volgende twee boekjare. Ná die prysbepaling se hersiening verhoog die tarief in elk van die volgende twee jare met 8,8-persent, wat drie keer hoër is as die verwagte verbruikers-inflasiekoers. Saftu-woordvoerder, Asive Dyani, sê dis nog ʼn terugslag vir die werkersklas en arm huishoudings:

A actualidade desta semana em África ficou designadamente marcada pela visita de dois dias que o Presidente moçambicano, Daniel Chapo, efectuou ao Ruanda, país cujas tropas apoiam o exército moçambicano na luta contra o terrorismo em Cabo Delgado, no extremo norte do país. No âmbito desta deslocação, foi assinado em Kigali o Acordo sobre o Estatuto da Força que regula a presença das tropas ruandesas que lutam contra os grupos armados em Cabo Delgado, um documento apresentado como um instrumento padrão regido pelo direito internacional. Apesar de o Presidente moçambicano explicar que o acordo militar assinado com o Ruanda não prevê o aumento do contingente desse país em Cabo Delgado, os termos desse protocolo não deixaram de suscitar interrogações no seio da sociedade civil moçambicana. Noutro aspecto, no rescaldo das eleições gerais de 9 de Outubro de 2024, a Comissão Nacional de Eleições (CNE) notificou 12 dos 37 partidos políticos que participaram nas eleições gerais para corrigirem irregularidades na utilização dos fundos atribuídos durante a campanha eleitoral. Para o Presidente da Acção do Movimento Unido para a Salvação Integral (AMUSI), a ausência da Frelimo, partido governamental neste processo é questionável. Ainda na actualidade moçambicana, esta semana esteve eminentemente virada para questões económicas. Foi inaugurada segunda-feira e decorre ainda até este domingo em Marracuene a 60.ª edição da FACIM, Feira Internacional de Maputo, um evento que reúne mais de 3 mil expositores e cuja importância foi destacada pelo Presidente da República durante a cerimónia de abertura. Foi neste contexto que a fundição de alumínio Mozal suspendeu contratos com 20 empresas nacionais, deixando mais de mil pessoas em situação de desemprego. Esta informação foi avançada pelo Presidente da Confederação Económicas de Mocambique, CTA, Álvaro Massingue que apontou esta como sendo consequência directa do anúncio da suspensão das actividades pela fundição até Março do próximo ano, caso não se encontre uma solução para o fornecimento de energia eléctrica, após o término do contracto actual com a Eskom. Na Guiné-Bissau, os advogados da coligação eleitoral Plataforma Aliança Inclusiva - Terra Ranka afirmam que está em curso um plano para impedir a participação do seu líder, Domingos Simões Pereira, nas eleições presidenciais do próximo mês de Novembro, sendo que também denunciam alegadas irregularidades no processo eleitoral. Também esta semana, o Primeiro-Ministro guineense Braima Camará foi hospitalizado de urgência no Senegal após sentir-se mal durante a cerimónia de tomada de posse de novos membros do Conselho de Estado, na capital. Entretanto, a RFI apurou que pelo menos até esta sexta-feira, o chefe do governo guineense ainda se encontrava no Senegal, mas que estava a a recuperar e que tenciona regressar em breve à Guiné-Bissau. Noutra actualidade, aqui em França, o Presidente Emmanuel Macron recebeu esta semana no palácio do Eliseu o seu homólogo senegalês Diomaye Faye, ambos tendo manifestado a vontade de reforçar os elos entre os dois países, depois de meses de algum distanciamento, desde a chegada ao poder das novas autoridades no Senegal no ano passado. Um dos indícios mais flagrantes da nova tonalidade das relações bilaterais foi a saída no passado mês de Julho dos cerca de 300 militares franceses que ainda se encontravam no país, isto a pedido do poder do Senegal. Em Cabo Verde, a França tem estado a apoiar a ilha de São Vicente a se reerguer após a destruição causada pela tempestade Erin. Um navio da Marinha Francesa, com técnicos, mecânicos e engenheiros, chegou esta semana à ilha cabo-verdiana para apoiar a resposta às necessidades após a tempestade que provocou nove mortos e dois desaparecidos naquela ilha. Relativamente desta vez à actualidade de São Tomé e Príncipe, o antigo primeiro-ministro, Patrice Trovoada, manifestou a intenção de ocupar o seu lugar de deputado da Assembleia Nacional. Expedientes já foram feitos para que a sua reintegração seja efectivada. Em Angola, a equipa da casa tornou-se campeã africana de basquetebol após a sua vitória, na final, no domingo, face ao Mali por 70-43. O Presidente angolano, João Lourenço, saudou na segunda-feira a vitória da selecção angolana pela conquista deste que é o seu 12.º título de campeã africana da modalidade.

Nersa se fout met die berekening van Eskom se inkomste oor die volgende twee jaar, moet in die hof betwis word, sê 'n energieontleder. 'n Boek oor die vermiste Joshlin Smith ontlok sterk reaksie. Ons praat oor 'n eienaardige komeet wat deur ons sonnestelsel beweeg.

The South African Federation of Trade Unions, SAFTU has expressed alarm over a new settlement between the National Energy Regulator and Eskom. The agreement grants Eskom an extra R54 billion in revenue over the Sixth Multi-Year Price Determination period. SAFTU says, while the deal corrects technical errors, it places a heavy burden on workers and poor households already struggling with austerity, joblessness and soaring living costs. Joining us now is SAFTU General Secretary, Zwelinzima Vavi, to unpack the implications of this decision...

South Africans will have to brace themselves for electricity price increases in 2026 and 2027. The National Energy Regulator of SA has entered into a settlement with Eskom, giving it an additional R54bn over three years on top of the R1.2-trillion is has already approved. Earlier this year Eskom lodged a judicial review of Nersa's decision to grant Eskom a price increase on the basis it wasn't enough. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to Executive Manager for Electricity at NERSA Rhulani Mathebula

John Maytham speaks to Devilliers Botha, Deputy Chairperson of the Governing Committee of SAPVIA and also Chief Commercial Officer of Solareff. They discuss Eskom’s renewable energy offtake program which invites large power users to procure 291MW of solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity through long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) from Eskom-owned renewable energy sites. Eskom says these agreements enable businesses to align with global sustainability standards, reduce carbon footprints, and green their supply chains, enhancing competitiveness.

Eskom sê twee kontraktuele geskille met Framatome, die kontrakteur wat die stoomopwekker by die Koeberg-kernkragaanleg moet vervang, word deur prosesse hanteer waarop ooreengekom is. Die Wes-Kaapse Hooggeregshof het die kragverskaffer opdrag gegee om die Franse kernenergie-maatskappy sowat 1 miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand te betaal oor die staking van werk in 2022 om drie stoomopwekkers by Koeberg te vervang. Eskom-woordvoerder Daphne Mokwena sê onlangse mediaberigte het blykbaar twee aparte regsprosesse verwar:

Eskom Tariffs to be Revised by Radio Islam

President Cyril Ramaphosa said recently the State would spend more than a trillion rand over the next three years on building and repairing infrastructure. It sounds like a lot but it's slightly more than just R300bn a year. Is that it? Public Works Minister Dean MacPherson tells Peter Bruce in this edition of Podcasts from the Edge the R1trn is just what the State has at the ready to spend with private sector partners. If the take-up is strong – across rail, ports, water, health, education -- it could double the State's contribution and get the country to where we are investing the equivalent of more than 25% of our GDP – that finally breaks the growth barrier and gets people working. But government is slow and disjointed and MacPherson wants to see more spending coming through Infrastructure South Africa, which reports to him. Eskom's transmission business, for instance, is buying land for the 14000km of new lines we need. Yet a lot of the land it needs to acquire already belongs to the government. So why pay for it?

Eskom sê Eenheid 1 van die Koeberg-kernkragsentrale in Kaapstad sal nou teen die einde van Augustus weer aanlyn wees. Daar is aanvanklik verwag dat die eenheid dié maand weer in diens sou wees.

Eskom se woordvoerder, Daphne Mokwena, sê die hersiene tydlyn is te wyte aan foute wat tydens inspeksies en onderhoud gevind is.

South Africa's sluggish economic growth since 2010 has left its citizens 40% poorer than the global average. Osagyefo Mazwai, investment strategist at Investec Wealth & Investment International told BizNews in an interview that the country's GDP per capita decoupled from global peers in 2010, with growth averaging just 1% annually compared to 4.5% for emerging markets. This has resulted in a nominal GDP of R7.4 trillion today, versus a potential R11.5 trillion had growth kept pace. The R5 trillion shortfall in government revenue could have reduced national debt and funded critical infrastructure, like Eskom's R400 billion transmission network expansion. He said key barriers to growth are energy shortages, logistics inefficiencies, crime, and an under-skilled workforce and called for urgent government action to stabilise electricity, improve logistics, reduce crime, and enhance workforce skills and to foster a business-friendly environment with less red tape.
