Eskom wants to supply power to data centres and electric vehicles in South Africa

Eskom aims to supply power to data centres and electric vehicles in South Africa as part of its efforts to diversify revenue streams ahead of unbundling its dominance in the electricity sector. The utility plans to shift towards renewable energy and export bulk power to bolster its bottom line, with data centres being one of its key targets. This move is expected to cement Eskom's position as a dominant generator in the regional power market, capitalizing on its strengths to offer complementary services.
