Electricity Tariff FAQs

Common questions about municipal electricity rates and lifeline tariffs.

A lifeline tariff is a special electricity rate designed to support low-income households. In most South African municipalities, if you consume less than a certain threshold (usually 350kWh - 450kWh per month), you qualify for a subsidized rate. This ensures basic electricity needs remain affordable for everyone.

Municipal electricity rates are typically structured into "blocks." As you use more electricity during a calendar month, the price per unit increases. For example, the first 600kWh might be at one rate, and anything above that at a higher rate. These rates are reviewed and approved annually by NERSA (National Energy Regulator of South Africa) and usually take effect on July 1st each year.
