If all SA’s cut back 30% of their electricity bill in their homes?

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

The substantial increase in electricity prices over the next 3 years has left SA consumers concerned whether they will be able to afford electricity in the future?  Eskom actually asked for 35% per year, but NERSA only granted Eskom a reduced hike, putting Eskom under pressure to fund the power expansion programm themselves, which is estimated to cost around R350 billion.  Renewable Energy Portfolio Manager, Cedric Worthmann said that solar energy is an obvious alternative to electricity  and it is up to South Africans to take the initiative to change their energy consuming ways.   Eskom is compensating SA consumers in allowing rebates to those who use solar energy hot water.
