Power utility Eskom has confirmed that it has an on-going dispute with the SA Revenue Services (SARS) over its tax rebate on diesel purchases. loadshedding energycrisis

Energy experts say Eskom has become reliant on its open-cycle gas turbines as primary energy generators, which are powered by diesel.Eskom’s Spokesperson is Sikonathi Mantshantsha says, “Yes, there is a dispute with SARS on the amount of rebate that Eskom should be getting because it buys diesel at the wholesale price rather than the retail price that you and I pay at the pumps which does include other taxes.

“For the wholesale price, Eskom believes it is entitled to a certain amount of money. I do not want to divulge the amount at this point, lest I be wrong. Yes, there is a dispute and a discussion going on with SARS,” Mantshatsha adds.Share article

At this “stage” no one cares, simply keep the lights on without making us cough up extra money. It’s not the citizens problem or fault.

I'm sure the Rothschild's own many 'Energy' co's in RSA. Patrice Motsepe too & he has family links to Cyril,his wife is Motsepe's sister.Renewable energy,wind farms & solar energy.That's what's coming.That's why copper is stolen nationwide & power stations vandalized. My opinion

It's like not being under one umbrella

Oh do they now? The 18% entity is telling us they have a Lil spell of penny pinching themselves, I never thought I'd live to see the day ...

One extortionist fighting another extortionist

There comes more excuses when will people that work for Eskom_SA just be honest about electricity?

I agree sars is doing this to most of its customers as a result most businesses cannot move forward

Instead of fighting equally corrupt sarstax root out corruption in your own house Eskom_SA you are consistently shifting instead if accepting blame!!!

I'm not an expert. But after viewing and analyzing this post from beginning to end, line by line, word by word, letter by letter. I came to the conclusion and i can say that i can't say anything because as i said at the beginning, I'm not an expert.😄

If you spend more of your time daydreaming, planning, or thinking about the future than you do working to bring about that future, you are are not making the most of your life. People who make something of themselves don't sit around daydreaming about what the future may be like

Would be great to hear from Pravin Gordon on this matter

Ignorance speaks of who pays and who don’t pay taxes. SA is owned by Britain who do u think takes the gold and wealth from SA. Do your research

No one cares ons gaatvol met die Eskom

No one cares!

Next you will hear eskom switches off SARS for none payment.... GOVERMENTDEPARTMENTS HOWSFOOLINGWHO

And if they win - EVERYONE using diesel for generators need a to be exempt from paying the ROAD TAX and RAF portion of the cost of diesel.

What do you expect with only a fraction of the population paying tax? The amount in rebates would likely exceed the tax coming in.
