Haven't seen other sources of this yet but:
Eskom says it wants parts of its tariff hike application kept confidential.
It says if this doesn't happen, South Africans could find themselves paying even more for power.
The utility handed in its application for a 53% increase to the country's National Energy Regulator three weeks ago.
Nersa is yet to make a decision on whether the hike will be implemented.
Eskom's Andrew Etzinger says the power giant's bargaining position would be weakened if certain details in its application were to be made public.

So eskom are out to make themselves look like an even bigger joke than they already are (who thought that was possible?).
I love this part:

Yes I imagine it would. If the public knew exactly how much you were screwing them over I doubt they would react kindly to it.
And this gem as well:
It says if this doesn't happen, South Africans could find themselves paying even more for power
"Give us what we want or else". These guys are in the wrong line of business.
I think its time as South Africans that we send a clear message to these idiots. Everyone who owns a shop or business should have a list of eskom execs and refuse to serve them or their families.
