AfriForum seeks to assist households, businesses wanting to sell power into grid

Civil rights organisation AfriForum has launched its #MyPower campaign following President Cyril Ramaphosa’s announcement that businesses and households will be allowed to install solar power with no licencing threshold and feed excess power into the grid. The campaign is asking for a mandate that AfriForum and its service company Pionier can negotiate on behalf of households and businesses with the newly established Energy Crisis Committee, as well as with the National Energy Regulator of South Africa on regulations for private power generation, sales to the power grid and tariffs.
