Start with one invoice. Everything beyond that is scoped only if the first review finds something worth pursuing.
One Eskom invoice, recomputed line by line from the published tariff rules. Five working days from receiving the figures. No cost, no obligation, and the report is yours.
No cost
Multiple months or multiple points of delivery. Identifies persistent variances, tests how tariff structure changes land on your actual consumption shape, and produces the supporting analysis if you intend to query a charge with Eskom.
Scoped per engagement
Independent review of a wheeling or power purchase agreement model, for buyers, lenders and credit teams. Recomputes the claimed saving from first principles against the published tariff rules and the regulator's decisions.
Scoped per engagement
The free review either finds nothing, which is a useful answer in itself, or it finds something. If it does, we can discuss whether a wider review is worth doing. There is no obligation either way.
We produce the analysis. Querying a charge with Eskom is yours to do, or your advisers', and we do not represent anyone in a dispute.
The figures only, not the invoice document.
The reconciliation, line by line: what the published rules produce for each charge, what the invoice charged, and the variance between them.
Five working days from receiving the figures.
Free, with no obligation. The report is yours to keep.
Specimen. The rates are Eskom's published 2026/27 rates. The consumption and demand figures are illustrative and do not describe any real customer.

Two lines disagree. The network demand charge has been applied to utilised capacity rather than chargeable demand, and the ancillary service charge to a kilowatt-hour total that is not the one metered. Both are basis errors rather than wrong rates, which is the kind that survives a look down the invoice.
We intend to measure South Africa's new wholesale electricity market from the point it opens.
