Nersa’s subcommittees will no longer withhold specific information regarding electricity tariff and fuel transport cost recommendations discussed in their meetings, which are legally required to be open to the public.
The National Energy Regulator of South Africa has announced a major change in how they will handle meetings dealing with electricity and petrol price adjustments in South Africa.
“The Energy Regulator resolved that all subcommittees will no longer withhold the exact number or decision, for example, the total percentage of allowed tariff or revenue being recommended to the Energy Regulator for approval in high-profile matters,” Nersa explained. The only allowable exception is when subcommittees discuss information requiring the Energy Regulator to refuse access under the Promotion of Access to Information Act.
These would only become known once Nersa published its decision on the adjustments and notified the required regulated entities of the decision.
