Swartland Municipality Opposes Eskom's Proposed 36% Electricity Tariff Increase

Thys Möller, the Electrical Services Director for Swartland Municipality, has strongly opposed Eskom's application for a 36.15% electricity tariff hike for 2025. If approved this will translate into a 43.55% increase to all municipalities. Möller presented the Municipality’s objections at the recent National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) public hearings in Cape Town, representing the interests of the Swartland Municipality, its Council, and all residents and businesses.
