We are an association of electricity distribution utilities and commercial companies providing goods and services to the electricity distribution utilities in Southern Africa. The association operates branches in most parts of South Africa and Namibia. Members convene annually at the AMEU's general convention. Industry activities are coordinated by a number of specialized committees, officers and a secretariat to the association. A special branch promotes the interests of women in the electricity distribution industry. 

The operating committees of the association meet three times a year over two days, normally hosted by a member utility, which can be in any part of the country.
