Connecting Communities and Addressing Load Reduction

Connecting Communities and Addressing Load Reduction

South African communities and small businesses need reliable power to thrive.

The ANC's local government programme prioritises connecting communities and ending the disruptions caused by load reduction through practical municipal action.

Our Programme Commits To:

• Maintenance and protection of local electricity distribution infrastructure
• Partnership with Eskom and metros to reduce illegal connections and overload
• Supporting SMMEs and township economies with stable supply for productivity
• Investing in energy efficiency and alternative energy at municipal level

Powering South Africa is about dignity, jobs and growth. When a craft business, a spaza shop or a workshop can work without interruption, our economy grows.

Let's Continue Building Better Communities Together.

Vote ANC on 4 November 2026.
