Public-private partnerships have the potential to increase the current rate of electrification in the Erongo Region from 78% to more than 80%.

This is according to the regional electricity distribution body, Erongo Red.
 
 Out of 75 000 households in Erongo, 16 700 remain unelectrified. 

Navachab Gold Mine, Erongo Red, and the Karibib Town Council will co-finance millions of dollars for the electrification of close to 600 houses in the informal settlement.

The co-financing initiatives are further supported by the Ministry of Mines and Energy.
