6 will be applied as from 1 July 2008 and will replace the previously approved increase of 14,2%. The April increase of 14,2% was applicable for three months (1 April 2008 to 30 June 2008) and the 34,2% increase implemented on 1 July is applicable for a nine-month period until 31 March 2009. A table with the summary of the 14,2% rates applicable from 1 April 2008 to 30 June 2008 (for non-local authority tariffs) is included on page 12 and 13. The tariffs applicable to local authorities from 1 April 2008 to 30 June 2008 can be found in the 2007/8 tariff book. 2 c/kWh tax on electricity In the budget speech the Minister of Finance announced the introduction of a 2c/kWh levy on electricity produced from non-renewable sources (coal, gas and diesel). This levy will be applied from 1 September 2008 and will be in addition to the prices given in this document. Tariff structural changes The planned implementation of the tariff structural changes during 2008/9 has been postponed. The 2008/9 tariff charges are based on the same structures as the 2007/8 tariffs. The structural changes will be implemented once the NERSA approval of the requested structural changes is obtained. The implementation of the tariff structural changes is anticipated to be implemented during the 2009/10 financial year. The objectives of the planned tariff structural changes are to enhance the cost-reflectivity and transparency of Eskom’s tariffs. The planned tariff structural changes include the commencement of a gradual alignment of the Electrification and Rural Subsidy (formerly known as Rate Rebalancing Levy) between contributing tariffs. Details of these changes are available on the Eskom web site or on request. Energy efficiency This 2008/9 tariff book also includes information on how to contribute to energy efficiency. Customers can benefit from cost savings resulting from lower consumption by using the energy efficiency tips provided and at the same time make a contribution towards alleviating the high electricity demand during periods of tight supply.
