On 7 March 2019, the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) granted annual tariff increases of 9.4% in 2019/2020; 8.1% in 2020/2021; and 5.2% in 2021/2022 in terms of the Multi-Year Price Determination Period four (MYPD4), for the period 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2022. NERSA further approved an additional 4.4% tariff increase in terms of Eskom’s Third Multi-Year Price Determination Regulatory Clearing Account (RCA) for year five, which will increase the annual electricity tariff for 2019/2020 to 13.9%. These increases amount to a compounded increase of 9.8% per year over three years, which is 29.5% higher than the current electricity tariff. In total, as many as 90,222 jobs would be at risk solely as a result of the MYPD4 tariff increases granted to Eskom. This figures excludes existing sector-specific challenges. Given the mining sector’s dependency ratio of 10 people supported by each mining job, the potential socio-economic implications for the country are dire. (Source - Minerals Council, South Africa)

Election campaigns heating up
Election posters in Burgersfort - one with some rain damage.
Soviet Lekganyane, Provincial Secretary of the ANC in Limpopo inter alia said this week the party has noted “with utter disgust a systematic pattern of vandalising its election Posters. This pattern has been observed throughout the Province, but it is most prevalent in the Vhembe Region, and Seshego in the Peter Mokaba. Parties participating in the May 8th National and Provincial elections have just signed a code of conduct committing themselves to abide by electoral rules, of which political tolerance is an integral part of. The ANC reminds all its members and supporters to abide by the electoral code and allow for free political activity. Furthermore we appeal to the law enforcement agencies to be more vigilant and act against vandalism. In the meantime, the ANC will lay a formal complaint with the IEC for a formal investigation to be conducted in accordance with the electoral regulations”. Meanwhile the EFF leadership has whined because the media is not giving the party it’s due with regards to publicity of events etc. With regards this newspaper, the editorial principle at Platinum Gazette is that the newspaper will never publish political campaigns for free, making itself guilty of the political peddling of parties (any one of them) to garner some votes. While it is not unknown in the media for publishing houses to align themselves with parties during elections, this newspaper will remain fiercely independent in that regard. The editor of Platinum Gazette is well versed in elections and electoral systems having majored during his studies in political science, constitutional law and international politics. He cut his teeth in election journalism as an editor at the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation’s election desk (radio and television) during that country’s independence process as well as the first local government elections in that county after independence. Futhermore, after his stint in Namibia he returned to South Africa, taking up employment at a local government institution where he also saw the other side of the coin as a deputy municipal electoral officer during the first local government elections after 1994. So, it is not that we at Platinum Gazette don’t know what we are talking about - if we have something to say, we will say it. Otherwise we will keep quiet and not be part of lies, hot air and jostling for publishing space to the detriment of voters’s interests. We remain faithfully your newspaper. (Should any party buy advertising space - subject to the editorial policies - there will be a clear indication that the advertisement was paid for by the particular political party).
The Sekhukhune District Municipality Special Programmes Unit held a Human Rights Day celebration and awareness programme within the special groups of people living with disabilities. The event was held at Mohlaletse Disability Centre inFetakgomo Tubatse Local Municipality.

Your views on IPPs, Eskom and licensing off-grid appliances With severe load shedding still fresh on the minds of South Africans the use of Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and their impact was pushed back into the spotlight. Energy Minster, Jeff Radebe said that “The financial losses of Eskom cannot be attributed to the introduction of the renewable energy programme. Eskom is not borrowing money for buying electricity generated by IPPs or for funding the construction of IPPs”. IPPs generate power in different ways and then feed it back into the national grid. Some examples include wind farms, solar farms and even industries in manufacturing that adapted their systems to generate power from by-products that are part of the natural process. It is also often referred to as green energy or renewable energy. It is important to note that according to the national Renewable IPP procurement programme, the use of IPPs is aimed at rather than alleviating a shortfall in electricity supply, to contribute towards sustainable growth towards 2030 – both socio-economic and environmentally. The Department of Energy lists the following as qualifying technologies for the IPP Procurement Programme: the utilization of Onshore wind, Concentrated solar thermal, Solar photovoltaic, Biomass solid, Biogas, Landfill gas and Small hydro. The increased use of IPPs to help provide power to supplement Eskom’s output has been a bone of contention for the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM). According to NUM there is scientific facts that green energy is not as cheap as it is portrayed to be. They stated that the increased use of IPPs could result in major retrenchments in the energy and mining sector as IPPs are not labour intensive. Some of their other concerns include that there is no social labour plan associated with the introduction of IPPs and that in the end the public may pay more for the use of IPPs. In most developed economies there are competition within their energy industries. In 1998 government adopted a white paper setting out goals for the energy sector. These include that customers should have the right to choose their electricity supplier, that competition should be introduced in especially the generating sector and to encourage private sector participation in the industry while permitting open, non-discriminatory access to the transmission system. The goals in the white paper have not been implemented as envisioned at adoption. Recent problems with Eskom saw some municipalities pushing to purchase electricity directly from IPPs. The City of Cape Town is now embroiled in a legal battle with the Energy Minister and the National Energy Regulator of SA (Nersa) to settle this approach. “If we are allowed to procure renewable energy, we can reduce the long-term electricity costs for our residents and provide cleaner power. Currently, some 65% of the tariff that we charge customers for electricity goes towards the cost to buy electricity from Eskom. The price for all renewables has fallen dramatically. For instance, wind energy is now far cheaper than new coal-fired generation,” said Phindile Maxiti, Cape Town’s MMC for energy and climate change. The use of incentives that will assist IPPs to establish themselves and feed electricity to the national grid is nothing new, but is part of what those against the increased use of their services, object to. The Energy Expert Coalition last year appealed to South Africans to comment on the draft rules government was looking at to regulate small-scale embedded generators. In broad the rules will have owners of generators and other devices like solar panels and back up batteries register the devices and may require licensing fees being charged for them. The Energy Expert Coalition objected that the rules are too broad and will impact even on the hawkers operating on the sidewalk. Should this be pushed through these rules may see even micro-solar chargers for cell phones having to be registered and
possibly charged a licensing fee. Public input for this closed at the end of May last year. Platinum Gazette asked readers what they think about the issue of incentives, IPPs and Eskom. Ms Orpah Phala said: “I’m against the IPPs. Power stations are already there and I agree that people will lose their jobs”. Mr Francois Baird said: “They must give IPPs an incentive. I think it will ease the burden on Eskom and we will have less load shedding. Now some people think jobs may be lost, it is just that this concept of IPPs is new to people. I don’t think jobs will be lost”. Mr Kgaogelo Kumalo said: “I think paying tax on off-grid appliances like generators is a good idea. I will do that as long as people at Eskom don’t lose their jobs. But I will only pay for a certain period. As soon as Eskom is fixed I don’t want to pay anymore”.
Mr Velaphi Buti Maphanga said: “Eskom has problems. Some of those people stole money and they caused things to not go well for us. I think they should boost the IPPs to provide us with electricity”. Left: Ms Thabitha Mashaba said: “Just push Eskom, but also reward IPPs to help give enough electricity for everyone”. Right: Ms Thato Mohlala said: “Eskom has failed us. Give the IPPs a chance to help. It was not the first time that we’ve experience load shedding. While Eskom is fixing themselves, the IPPs should be given a boost. No electricity affects the whole economy. I will not pay a fee or tax on a generator or solar appliances”. Mr Johannes Moropa said: “Those alternative ways to give electricity with things like solar power will make sure kids don’t have to go to bed hungry because people were not able to cook”.
Mr Michael Nyaka said: “Living without a job is very difficult. Eskom must be the only provider of electricity. I don’t favour incentives for independent producers. I’m with the unions on this”. Ms Regina Makhubedu said: “We don’t want more Gupta stories so they should not give IPPs a chance. Rather just fix Eskom. Uproot what is wrong with Eskom and fix it. They must not tax/license us on things like solar geysers and generators. Face the problems at Eskom and fix it”. Ms Lebogang Selahle said: “If they get more electricity from IPPs jobs will be lost. Eskom should try to raise funds. Cut off the unnecessary bonuses from management and then there will be no reason for a loss of jobs. Don’t even think about taxing us on off-grid appliances like generators. Our tax is already too high”.
Mr Andrew Mashego said: “Government must solve the problems at Eskom. Don’t tax or regulate people who go off-grid by using generators and solar power. Boost the IPPs so there will be enough electricity that there is no load shedding. Government must solve these problems because we vote for government. They are our father and our mother. They must come with a solution”.
Mnr. George Vemgelsamy sê: “Eskom het sy tyd gehad. Al die dik koppe het die geld geëet en hulle het miljoene se bonuse gekry. As hulle alles reg bestuur het, was daar nie ‘n probleem nie. Gee die IPPs hul incentive want dan het ons darem krag, want met Eskom kom ons nêrens nie. Die idee of off-grid appliances te tax/lisensïeer is tipies van ons government. Dit maak nie sin nie. Hulle wil alles tax en beheer”.
Mr Geoffrey Mnisi said: “We must have our own power suppliers. This lack of electricity from Eskom will lead to a loss of jobs as businesses cannot operate and production cannot happen. Food will also become an issue as water cannot be pumped to irrigate the farms. It is good that there are IPPs. At the mines we have to use our own knowledge and materials to generate our own power”. With him is Junior.
Mr Johannes Selota said: “Let’s boost the IPPs so we won’t have any load shedding. Just giving money to Eskom is a problem. Poor people will suffer if we will be taxed on (or have to register) our solar panels and generators. It is a heavy burden. I don’t think jobs will be lost in the end due to IPPs. Eskom should be normalized to supply adequately to their ability and the IPPs should supplement”.
Mr Excellent Mohlala and Mr Tshepo Madimetja said: “Eskom cannot provide for everyone. It is important to get the IPPs to help. To just take more money to help Eskom will not help. Rather give incentives to the guys who are IPPs so things can be good again. Generators are very expensive and fuel is expensive. People will be angry if they have to license their solar panels and generators”.

After the weekend, the teams played against Arboretum Primary School on Monday morning and against the U/12 and U/15 netball teams of Grantleigh Curro the afternoon. Every school went to a lot of trouble to welcome the teams and make them feel comfortable. Between the netball the group also had time to visit the ocean and take a swim before the end of summer. The trip back home coincided with some of the rounds for selection for district teams. A number of the girls were selected to progress to the next round that will be happening on 10 April 2019.
