FYI Price Hikes

DOUBLE-BLOW FOR SOUTH AFRICA THIS WEEK

South African consumers face a financial double-blow this week as new lockdown restrictions and price hikes take effect.

Businesses and homeowners can expect to pay significantly more for electricity from 1 July as Eskom’s latest price hike will be incorporated into municipal bills.

Cape Town residents can expect to pay 13.48% more for electricity, while Johannesburg and Durban residents will be paying 14.59% from their municipalities.

Residents in these cities can also expect to pay more for water and other municipal services from this date.

Those consumers who are directly supplied by Eskom were already hit with a 15% tariff increase as of 1 April, the result of Eskom succeeding in contesting a price increase for this year from the National Energy Regulator (Nersa) of 15.06 %.

The hikes will be a particularly bitter pill to swallow for the thousands of South Africans who have again been prohibited from earning a living due to the introduction of new adjusted level 4 lockdown restrictions from Monday (28 June).

NEW R50 LEVY PROPOSED FOR ‘WEALTHY’ HOUSEHOLDS IN JOHANNESBURG

The City of Johannesburg has proposed the formal introduction of a ‘recycling levy’ as part of its 2021/2022 tariff changes.

Included as a separate charge from the refuse levy, the recycling charge will focus on the ‘separation of waste at the source of generation’ – which includes households.

As part of the proposed levy, affluent households in various suburbs – excluding those located in areas classified as township or informal settlement – will be charged an additional levy at R50 per month for all properties with a market value above R350,000.

The City of Johannesburg has also proposed water and electricity price hikes as part of its draft Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework Budget.
