Nelson Mandela Bay 2016/17 Roof Top Solar tariffs

24 July 2016 By Alan Straton

The Nelson Mandela Bay Council has revised the current status of domestic customers participating on the Roof Top Solar Programme and has approved a new time-of-use tariff to be charged to domestic customers in the 2016/17 financial year as follows:

  • Monthly basic charge: R60.00
  • Energy: Peak – 1.750 c/kWh
  • Energy: Standard – 1.700 c/kWh
  • Energy: Off-peak – 1.250 c/kWh

Council has made provision for Winter and Summer Tariffs which, at present, are both the same.

In the past there was no monthly basic charge and the consumer tariff unit of measurement was linked to the standard Inclined Block Tariff (IBT) for Non ATTP (Assistance to The Poor) customers as below (2016/17 figures).

  • 0 – 350 kWh: R1.279
  • 350 – 600 kWh: R1.527
  • 600 – 900 kWh: R1.689
  • 900 + kWh 1.177: R1.807

Standard, Peak and Off-Peak Times:

Summer:

  • Standard: 06h00 – 7h00 and 10h00 – 18h00 and 20h00 – 22h00
  • Peak: 07h00 – 10h00 and 18h00 – 20h00
  • Off-Peak: 22h00 – 06h00

The above rates are for Monday to Friday.

The Off-Peak rates apply on Saturday and Sunday and Public Holidays.

Winter:

  • Standard: 10h00 to 17h00 and 20h00 – 22h00
  • Peak: 06h00 – 10h00 and 17h00 – 20h00
  • Off-Peak: 22h00 – 06h00

The above rates are for Monday to Friday.

Alan Straton

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
