City Power says it is owed around R4.5 billion in unpaid electricity debt. The power utility embarked on a revenue collection operation across Johannesburg targeting two properties, Broadcast House and Maxhoseni Hotel in Johannesburg where officials disconnected electricity due to outstanding payments.
The utility says non-payment continues to impact service delivery and its ability to maintain infrastructure and purchase electricity.
City Power Acting Chief Executive Officer Charles Tlouane? has urged residents and businesses to come forward and make arrangements with the utility to avoid being cut off.
