Nagenoeg 50 inwoners, onder andere huurders van die Roodewal-woonstelle, sogenaamde \u201chok\u201d-bewoners en \u201cplathuis\u201d-bewoners het \u2019n belangrike werksessie oor kragvoorsiening en elektrisiteit bygewoo <\/p>\n

Die sessie, aangebied deur Mmoni Suza van die Nasionale Energiereguleerder (Nersa) en Zonke Majola van die Nasionale Kredietreguleerder (NKR), het ten doel gehad om mense in te lig oor die rol en doel van Nersa en die NKR, hul werksaamhede en hoe om hulp te bekom. <\/p>\n

Die Breedevallei-munisipaliteit se elektriese- en finansi\u00eble afdelings was ook teenwoordig om vrae te help beantwoord. <\/p>\n

Die aanbiedinge was baie insiggewend en het positiewe debat en goeie vrae vanuit die gehoor gelok. Vrae soos hoe Nersa die prys van elektrisiteit bepaal, hoekom elektrisiteit so duur geword het, wat gedoen kan word om elektrisiteit te bespaar en of die munisipaliteit sy eie krag kan opwek, is gevra. Een van die kwessies wat verder geopper is, is hoe gevaarlike kragverbindings in informele nedersettings met wettige kragmeters vervang kan word.<\/p>\n

Van die inligting wat oorgedra is, is dat \u2019n lisensie nie nodig is vir kragprojekte onderkant 100 Megawatt nie. Worcester se behoefte is tans minder as 50 MW.\u00a0 Worcester het \u2019n steenkoolkragstasie gehad, maar dit is jare gelede gesloop en die lisensie het verval. <\/p>\n

Oor die verhoging van elektrisiteitstariewe, het dit aan die lig gekom dat Eskom elke drie jaar om \u2019n verhoging aansoek doen, en Nersa dan die verantwoordelikheid het om noukeurig na Eskom se motivering te kyk en \u2019n tarief vas stel. Die tariefverhoging is net \u2019n aanbeveling, tans is die voorgestelde tariefverhoging 7,47%. <\/p>\n

\u2019n Munisipaliteit mag minder as die aanbeveling toepas, maar indien hulle die tarief met meer wil verhoog, moet Nersa genader word om self \u2019n openbaredeelnameproses te fasiliteer om kommentaar van die gemeenskap te bekom. <\/p>\n

Nersa het beklemtoon dat die heffing van bykomende gelde op die verkoop van elektrisiteit, soos wat gebeur by baie spazawinkels, onwettig is en winkeleienaars wat hulle hieraan skuldig maak, hul lisensie kan verloor. Klagtes hieroor kan by die munisipaliteit aangemeld word. <\/p>\n

Di\u00e9 wat die werksessie bygewoon het, is ook ingelig dat huishoudings in informele nedersettings by die plaaslike verspreider van elektrisiteit \u2013 die munisipaliteit of Eskom \u2013 aansoek kan doen om voorafbetaalde kragmeters. <\/p>\n

Op sy beurt het die NKR \u2019n voorlegging oor skuld, lenings en watter soort hulp vir mense beskikbaar is, aangebied. <\/p>\n

Laastens het Maureen Rambhadursing van die organisasie sonder winsbejag, Poor Flat Dwellers Movement, oor menseregte soos die reg op behoorlike, veilige en bekostigbare behuising gepraat. Die organisasie werk oor die hele Suid-Afrika heen om arm gemeenskappe by te staan, veral met regsaksies waar hul regte met betrekking tot behuising geskend word. <\/p>\n

Die werksessie het dit duidelik gemaak dat daar \u2019n groot behoefte is aan inligting en kapasiteit rakende die kwessies van elektrisiteit, krediet en behuising. Die organisasies het belowe om binnekort weer terug te keer om ander gebiede van die Breedevallei en omliggende munisipaliteite te besoek.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
