Eskom has won its tariff battle against energy regulator Nersa.

The High Court has ordered the Nersa to process and consider Eskom’s revenue application. This will determine the adjusted tariff increase in April next year. It’s understood that the power utility applied for a 20 percent increase in tariffs from April 2022.

However, Nersa wanted a new pricing methodology to be used and rejected the application.
