Good news for South African ISPs – OADC announces no power rate hikes
Open Access Data Centres (OADC) has announced that it will not increase its power rates despite the recent 18.65% electricity tariff hike imposed by NERSA (National Energy Regulator of South Africa).
The recent power rate hike by NERSA has put a significant strain on many of OADC’s clients and partners, which has led the company to refrain from increasing its power rates.
This decision will provide a stable and predictable cost structure that empowers OADC’s ISP, WISP, and corporate clients to plan and budget effectively.
“Our decision to keep power rates unchanged in the face of NERSA’s recent rate hike is a testament to our unwavering commitment to our clients,” said Darren Bedford, Group Chief Business Development Officer at WIOCC Group.
