Eskom gets green light for 12.7% tariff hike – far less than requested
The adjustment is a fraction of the 36% increase that Eskom asked for from the National Energy Regulator of South Africa. The utility had increases approved for three financial years: 12.7% for the year to March 2026, 5.36% for 2027 and 6.19% for 2028, the Pretoria-based regulator said in an online briefing on Thursday.
