Eskom EV rollout: BYD partnership aims to supercharge South Africa’s charging network
Eskom has deployed its first fleet of 20 electric vehicles and 10 internal chargers, then signed a cooperation deal with BYD a week later to speed up EV adoption in South Africa. The partnership backs the BYD Dolphin Surf launch and targets public charging expansion, skills development, and jobs. Future plans include renewable-powered fast-charging hubs and battery reuse for energy storage.
