In August 2022, Eskom submitted to NERSA, proposed changes to its tariffs to be updated with the most recent cost-of-supply study and structural changes. NERSA did not approve any of the Eskom changes proposed, except for the introduction of the Homeflex tariff. This tariff was revised by NERSA and is included in the Eskom Schedule of Standard prices. Eskom has included in the Homeflex tariff, net-billing credit rates for any energy exported.
