key areas:
Required information for SSEG Tariff setting and
Revenue Impact parallel session
The below information is important in order to obtain useful outputs from the parallel session:
1. Municipal Electricity Tariffs: All tariffs paid by customers for electricity (c/kWh, R/kVA etc.)
Include SSEG tariffs (if the municipality has these)
2. D-forms, which include the following: Number of customers in each tariff category
Consumption in each tariff category:
Either:
Total volume of electricity supplied to each customer group per annum
OR
Electricity consumption per annum for a representative customer (average kWh/customer)
3. Bulk power purchase tariffs - these are the electricity prices that are paid to Eskom, e.g. Megaflex
If available, the following is useful (but not essential):
Technical losses - % of total electricity purchases from Eskom lost on the grid
Fixed cost of supply – if available (from Cost of Supply study – if you have one please bring it along)
Any info on which customer classes cross-subsidise others would be useful
Note: - if you bring the information under points 1 to 3 you will have the necessary for the session
