Wheeling is the transport of electricity from a generation point to a consumption point across another party's network, with agreed use-of-system (UoS) charges.
- Key documents typically include:
- Connection Agreement with the network operator
- Wheeling / UoS agreement setting tariffs and technical limits
- NERSA registration or licence for the generator
- Bilateral PPA between generator and offtaker
From 2025–2026, virtual wheeling and competitive market participation have expanded the options for C&I and mining offtakers who cannot host generation on-site. The UoS framework is still standardising — reform-watch applies.
