The Group is South Africa's national, vertically-integrated electricity utility and is engaged in the generation, transmission, distribution and retailing of electricity to industrial, mining, commercial, agricultural and residential customers, as well as to redistributors. The Government, through the Department of Public Enterprises, is the shareholder. The Group supplies approximately 95% of South Africa's electricity (with the remainder being produced by local authorities and certain large customers for their own consumption) and approximately 45% of the total electricity consumed on the African continent. The Group directly provides electricity to approximately 45% of all end-users in South Africa and to redistributors (including municipalities) who, in turn, resell and supply the other 55%.
In 2005, the Group initiated a programme to increase its generation, transmission and distribution capacity. Overall, the committed capital expansion programme is planned to achieve additional capacity of 17 000 MW by 31 March 2018. The Group plans to fund the programme with shareholder loans, shareholder equity, external debt and its operating cash flow and revenue.
Active participation in financial markets assists in managing risk related to foreign exchange, commodities and interest rates.
