The High Court in Pretoria will from Monday hear an application by the non-profit Casting, Forging and Machining Cluster of South Africa and four of its members to have energy regulator Nersa’s approval of City Power’s tariffs for 2019/2020 reviewed and set aside. The applicants represent energy-intensive users who operate within the licensed distribution area of the City of Joburg’s electrical utility City Power.
