BERA, business community engage in electricity tariff review

According to BERa, the engagement provided a platform for open dialogue between the regulator and the business community on electricity tariffs, billing methodologies and the practical realities experienced by companies following the implementation of the revised tariff framework. Speaking during the engagement, Business Botswana emphasised that electricity remains one of the most critical inputs into doing business, influencing production costs, competitiveness, investment decisions and the ability of enterprises to grow, create employment and contribute to economic transformation.

Business Botswana noted that changes to electricity tariffs and billing methodologies are therefore matters of significant interest to the private sector.
