Joburg mayor calls for stronger partnerships to address persistent electricity challenges affecting Alexandra

# Johannesburg mayor Dada Morero has called for a stronger partnership between City Power and communities to address the persistent electricity challenges affecting Alexandra. City Power has 40-thousand registered electricity customers in Alexandra, but only around one-thousand-600 are actively purchasing electricity. Morero says the metro cannot introduce a blanket or flat electricity rate for Alexandra, because households have different consumption patterns and needs. He stressed that revenue collection is essential to maintaining and expanding electricity infrastructure.
