Eskom does not issue generation licences/approvals. NERSA is
responsible for the issuing of licenses for the generation and supply
of electricity. The connection to the Eskom network is subject to the
issuing of a License by NERSA. For further information, please
contact NERSA at www.nersa.org.za
Note that Eskom cannot provide a connection to a generator that
does not receive its required approvals from NERSA
This process only deals with applications to Eskom, i.e. where the
generator is located in the Eskom’s licensed area of supply. You
will need to contact your local municipality if your generator is
located in a Municipality licensed area of supply. Eskom can assist
with contact details; alternatively contact NERSA to facilitate the
process.
