South Africa’s new power market

29 Jan 2025

Drastic regulatory reforms are reshaping South Africa’s electricity supply industry (ESI). With the unbundling of the state power utility Eskom into separate units for generation, transmission and distribution, a deregulated energy market dominated by private players and electricity traders, is emerging.

Authorities hope competition will increase the reliability of supply, bring down prices and help to close an enormous infrastructure funding gap.

Through reporting and the latest data, African Energy has been closely monitoring and covering the transition and the trends towards a liberalised ESI.
