South Africa's Minister of Electricity has pledged his country's commitment to continue supplying electricity to Namibia.

Dr. Kgosientsho Ramokgopa made this commitment during a media briefing in Windhoek.
 
Namibia generates about 40% of its energy needs domestically, while the remaining 60% is imported from neighbouring countries via the Southern African Power Pool. Out of this, 100 megawatts are sourced from South Africa.

However, South Africa has been grappling with energy shortages and consequent load shedding for a considerable period of time.
