South Africa is transitioning from coal-fired electricity, which currently accounts for 74% of its power, to renewable sources like wind and solar. This shift is complicated and is being hindered by the need for a different electricity system and new grid management strategies. Additionally, significant changes are required at Eskom, the state-owned utility that has historically dominated the power sector.

The transition to new energy sources presents both opportunities and risks, particularly in the management of data related to these changes, according to Moneyweb. As the energy sector evolves, effective data management will be crucial for navigating the complexities of this transition.
