About electricity in Namibia
Namibia uses 230V/50Hz with Type C, M, and N sockets, the same family used across Southern Africa.
Grid & history
Namibia imports significant electricity from South Africa; domestic generation is mostly hydropower (Ruacana) and growing solar in the Namib.
Availability
Reliable in Windhoek and tourist areas.
Sockets & hotels
Type M (older, large) and Type N (newer, smaller) coexist. Type C Europlugs fit Type N sockets.
Energy mix
Imports significant; solar growing.
Practical tips
- A Type M adapter is essential for older buildings.
- Voltage is the standard 230V, and modern chargers handle it without issue.
