On a serious note, there should be management meetings in all big companies today discussing how to alleviate the effects of the fuel price increase for employees. Unless you’re able to pay your staff more, you need to, where possible, offer solutions.
For every 1000 rand you pay for fuel.
R340 goes to the ANC government in tax
R480 goes to the actual fuel costs
R180 goes to operations costs.
You pay nearly as much tax on fuel as you do for the actual product.

#GetToKnowEskom#DidYouKnow?
Our research and development is conducted by the Eskom Research, Testing and Development (RT&D) - investing largely in examining emerging technologies and innovation to ensure that Eskom remains both competitive and sustainable. 💡
One of our notable innovation is the Powerline Inspection Robot, a ground-breaking development that began as a master’s project and is now on track to change how we manage and maintain our national powerlines. This robot has already caught the eye of Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), proving that homegrown ideas can make a global impact. Now patented in both South Africa and the United States, and brought to market through UKZN’s InQubate, this robot represents more than just innovation, it’s a reminder of what’s possible when collaboration, curiosity, and commitment come together.
This invention is a collaborative effort between the following parties:
Mr Trevor Lorimer and former University of Kwa-Zulu Natal (UKZN) Professor Edward Boje (Original developers); and
Backed by: Eskom’s RT&D team, the Technology Innovation Agency (TIA), and KwaZulu-Natal’s Department of Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (EDTEA) Technology Transfer Fund🤝
