Prepaid electricity calculator: how many kWh per rand?

Use the Yebogezi prepaid electricity calculator to see exactly how many units (kWh) a given rand amount buys in your municipality. The calculator accounts for inclining block tariffs (IBT), fixed and daily service charges, VAT, seasonal winter rates where they apply, indigent/Lifeline tiers, and typical payment or vendor fees.

Pick your municipality, enter what you plan to spend (for example R100, R500 or R1 000), and Yebogezi returns the units you will receive plus the effective price per kWh. Tariffs are sourced from official municipal and Eskom schedules.
