With the ANC's newfound urgency to stop load shedding before the 2024 watershed elections, skepticism continues to flood the nation.

Eskom COO Jan Oberholzer says the power utility has burnt through 40 million litres of diesel in May as it struggles to keep the light on.

Eskom’s exorbitant 20.5% tariff increase request confirms that the entity’s tariff determination model is heavily biased towards rewarding Eskom’s inefficiency and non-performance while punishing consumers via high energy costs. It is for this reason that the DA calls for a household-centric tariff determination model that factors in consumer price inflation, household income and energy poverty.
