The Ministry of Energy has announced the engagement of Energy Markets
and Regulatory Consultants (EMRC) as the new consultants to undertake
the electricity cost of service study.
Minister in Charge Matthew Nkhuwa says the new consultants will restart the study and are expected to deliver within 12 months.
Mr. Nkhuwa explains that the engagement of Energy Markets and Regulatory
Consultants comes following the request by formerly engaged Economy
Consultant Associates to withdraw from the study.
And The Energy Regulation Board (ERB) Executive Director Hlengiwe Lungu
has clarified that determining the cost of ZESCO tariffs is not the sole
purpose of undertaking the study.
