South Africa’s Energy Regulator, the highest decision-making body of the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa), has approved a 25-year transmission licence for the National Transmission Company South Africa (NTC), which is being unbundled from Eskom. Only a transmission facilities licence was granted during the meeting on July 27, and the regulator indicated that the trading licence and an import/export licence, which had also been applied for by NTC in a bundled application, would be processed separately.
