Eskom stays legal action to allow Nersa-led process on trading rules to unfold

Eskom has reached an agreement to suspend legal proceedings instituted against the granting of trading licences in 2024 to allow the current regulatory process to draft new trading rules to proceed in the absence of parallel litigation. In what was a surprise development at the time, Eskom applied to the High Court in July 2025 to have the National Energy Regulator of South Africa’s (Nersa’s) decision to grant five electricity trading licences reviewed and set aside.
