Eskom to challenge Nersa’s approval of new trading licences [SOUND]

# Eskom says it will approach the courts to challenge the National Energy Regulator of South Africa’s decision to issue four new electricity trading licenses. This is despite the power utility’s objections to allowing more than one licensee to provide electricity in the same area. The trading licenses went to Africa GreenCo, Green Electron Market, CBI Electric Apollo, and Discovery Green. Eskom’s spokesperson, Daphne Mokwena, says this decision by Nersa infringes upon and breaches the energy regulator’s own rules:
