Bidirectional Meter News

City Of Cape Town,City Of Tshwane (Cot),Feed-In Tariffs

The City of Tshwane will launch cheaper bidirectional electricity meters, which is great news for households with solar installations.

The City of Tshwane will soon start offering substantially cheaper bidirectional electricity meters for feeding excess power back to the grid.

The city’s ball-park figures are already a substantial improvement over the current R10,232 for a single-phase meter and R12,552 for a three-phase meter. A small household with a consumption of 450kWh will only be able to feed back a maximum of 150kWh to the grid in a month.With the new meter prices, the costs could be made up with 3,086kWh of excess power.

The one advantage Cape Town offers over Tshwane and most other municipalities with feed-in support is the ability to earn cash for extra power. For example, if you consume around 100kWh from the grid during a month on the prepaid tariff, your electricity bill will typically be about R282 per month at R2.82 per kWh.
