Abstract
The heat generated around proposed electricity price increases is considerable, ignited by Eskom's requests to the regulator for what appear to be stratospheric price increases. MIRIAM ALTMAN analyses the Nersa announcement of the second Multi-Year Price Determination (MYPD 2) which is meant to lay the path for the electricity price for the coming three years.-
