Cape Town is making exciting changes with its Smart Meter Initiative, set to start in April 2025. Old electricity meters in neighborhoods like Woodstock and Salt River will be replaced with new smart prepaid meters. These advanced meters promise to give accurate readings, reduce billing problems, and help residents manage their energy use better. The city also ensures safety during installations and offers support to lowincome households, making electricity more accessible for everyone. This project not only modernizes how energy is managed but also strengthens the bond between the city and its people.
