CAPE TOWN - Energy regulator Nersa said no municipality was allowed to charge its customers any other electricity tariff other than the one approved by the regulator.
The Good Party said this increase was way above Nersa's approved 15.1% electricity tariff increase for municipalities, making it the highest in the country.Nersa spokesperson Charles Hlebela said he has not seen the Good Party's submission. However, he said if there's any merit to their complaint, the energy regulator would have to look into it.
"If ever it's a complaint with allegations that the City of Cape Town is not implementing the tariff increase as approved by the energy regulator, it means that Nersa will have a look at the complaint and see if ever there are any contraventions of the conditions by the City of Cape Town and also kick start its resolution processes.
