We've all heard the advice: switch off the lights, unplug the kettle, and don't leave chargers in the wall. But when it comes to reducing your electricity bill, does plugging out appliances actually make a noticeable difference?

Eskom CEO Dan Marokane says getting regulations for the South African Wholesale Electricity Market right now will be crucial.

Voormalige Eskom-uitvoerende hoof, André de Ruyter, het Suid-Afrikaners jare gelede gewaarsku dat Eskom op pad was na 'n finansiële "doodspiraal" — en die jongste syfers dui daarop dat sy voorspelling dalk waar word. 📉💰

Die probleem is eenvoudig maar ernstig:

🔺 Eskom hou aan om elektrisiteitstariewe te verhoog om sy massiewe skuld en stygende koste te dek.

🔺 Verbruikers reageer deur minder elektrisiteit te gebruik of sonkragstelsels te installeer.

🔺 Eskom verkoop dan minder elektrisiteit en verloor inkomste.

🔺 Om die tekort aan te vul, styg tariewe weer.

En die siklus duur voort... ♻️⚠️

Die syfers is verbasend 👀

📊 Tussen 2008 en 2024:
⚡ Elektrisiteitspryse vir huishoudings het met ongeveer 411% gestyg
🏠 Huishoudelike elektrisiteitsverbruik het met byna 18% gedaal

In 2008 het huishoudings ongeveer 44 sent per kWh betaal.
Vandag het daardie syfer gestyg tot meer as R2.25 per kWh op die laagste skaal van 0-50 units. Tot meer as 600 units betaal jy ongeveer R5 per unit vandag. 😳

Intussen wend meer Suid-Afrikaners hulle tot sonkrag ☀️

🏡 Huise met sonpanele het toegeneem van net meer as 200 000 in 2019 tot byna 700 000 in 2025.

Baie besighede en huishoudings genereer nou hul eie elektrisiteit, wat hul afhanklikheid van Eskom heeltemal verminder.

Die ironie? 🤔

Eskom vorder meer geld van kliënte as voorheen as gevolg van hoër tariewe, maar dit verkoop aansienlik minder elektrisiteit.

Ekonome waarsku dat Eskom se massiewe skuldlas dit met baie min opsies laat behalwe om pryse aan te hou verhoog – wat selfs meer mense van die netwerk kan afstoot.

Vir baie Suid-Afrikaners is sonkrag nie meer 'n luukse nie... dit word 'n finansiële oorlewingstrategie. ☀️💸

Teen hierdie tempo, kan ons uiteindelik 'n toekoms sien waar miljoene Suid-Afrikaners die meeste van hul eie elektrisiteit opwek?

South Africans will pay more for electricity from 1 July as municipalities roll out their annual tariff increases across the country.

Cape Town residents will see a 7.5% increase, while Johannesburg, Tshwane, eThekwini, Mangaung and Nelson Mandela Bay face increases between 8.63% and 10.09%.

Ekurhuleni and Buffalo City residents will be hit harder, with tariff increases of 12.7% and 14%.
