      <video:description><![CDATA[The National Energy Regulator of South Africa has approved a 35 per cent electricity tariff reduction, for the ferrochrome smelters operated by Samancor Chrome and the Glencore-Merafe Chrome Venture.

High electricity costs have been a major headwind for ferrochrome smelters, with more than a dozen having shut down in recent years - a challenge that has led to thousands of job losses. Joining CNBC Africa, to delve into the latest decision is Rhulani Mathebula, Executive Manager for Electricity Regulation at NERSA.
