The National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) has outlined the process it will be following to assess Eskom’s request for a 19.9% tariff increase for the 2018/19 financial year, setting a deadline of October 13 for the submission of written comments. Nersa has approved Eskom’s request to submit an application for only a single year once the third multiyear price determination (MYPD 3) cycle, which ran for five years, expires on March 31, 2018.
