Eskom and Telkom — A tale of two dying monopolies

Eskom’s attempt to overhaul its electricity tariff structure is reminiscent of Telkom’s complaints nearly fifteen years ago that it was losing money on every phone line it supplied in the country.

The power utility has submitted its updated retail tariff plan (RTP) to the National Energy Regulator of South Africa, which proposes huge price increases for connecting to the electrical grid.
 
Eskom’s major problem - solved
Eskom is making the finance case to add an additional battery add 8 more panels and go from 20% grid usage to 0% grid usage.
Then I disconnect and go 100% off-grid.
Eskom's major problem is then solved.

Anything about running Eskom more efficiently, with a drive to lower their costs?
