Call for regulator to delay Eskom tariff hearings

Business Unity South Africa (Busa) has asked the National Energy Regulator of South Africa to delay its public hearings on Eskom’s proposed 53% tariff hike. Briefing the media in Johannesburg on Tuesday, Busa chief executive Jerry Vilakazi said a tariff increase would be ”short-sighted” and was not a sustainable solution to the current electricity crisis.
