The City of Johannesburg assists residents who can’t afford basic living costs like water, electricity and property rates by subsiding their rates through the Expanded Social Packages (ESP).
The Expanded Social Package (ESP) offers relief and subsidies to the unemployed, youth, women & children, displaced persons.
Each individual who qualifies for ESP is eligible for specific benefits, and you do not need to be an account holder to apply for subsidies. You just have to live somewhere that has an account with the City, for water and electricity.
