No fixed charge: all of your money buys units. The decision doesn’t say whether its tariffs include VAT; 15% added, as municipal tariffs are usually quoted without it. Source: NERSA decision, page 18.

Why the same R100 buys less later in the month

On this tariff, Mohokare sells electricity in blocks that start again on the first of every month. The first 350 kWh each month cost R4.02 a unit, VAT included, and R4.13 a unit above 350 kWh.

So R100 buys 24.8 kWh at the start of the month, but only 24.2 kWh once you’ve bought 350 kWh that month. Splitting your purchases doesn’t change this: the blocks count every unit you buy in the month, however you buy them.

Mohokare charges more in winter (June to August): then R100 buys 22.5 kWh at the start of the month.
