Electricity Pricing Policy 뉴스

대한민국 최근 뉴스,대한민국 헤드 라인

Role players working on electricity pricing policy to ensure affordability.

Electricity and Energy Minister Dr Kgosientsho Ramokgopa says the department is working with other roleplayers on an electricity pricing policy to ensure affordability. The minister gave an update on energy and electricity-related matters as the country continues to see a reprieve from load shedding.

“Even in those areas, where you don’t experience load reduction, electricity is just unaffordable. It has gone through the roof with over 400% increase in the past 10 years. It’s unsustainable. That situation is untenable. We have to arrest the situation and that’s why I kept saying we will start a conversation and a process of electricity pricing policy because the tariff is a function policy. So, the problem can’t be Nersa. Nersa is discharging what the policy says.

“This electricity pricing policy must agitate communities to come on board so that they are able to share their lived experiences. I don’t expect people from my village Ga-Ramokgopa or someone from an informal settlement in Khayabland to make a 30-page submission on what is happening, but they must be listened to so that we give credibility to this process,” he says.

Infrastructure vandalism, illegal connections and prepaid meter rollout remain some of the challenges. The Deputy Electricity Minister Samantha Graham-Mare says they continue to work with Eskom and municipalities to expedite the rollout of prepaid electricity meters.
