Zola Electric Partners With Wetility And Vincent Maposa To Combat Load Shedding. Loadshedding is a major social and economic issue – impacting daily life, the operation of businesses, schools, and clinics, and hindering South Africa’s development. The South African Reserve Bank estimates these rolling blackouts cost the nation as much as $51 million per day – and disproportionately affect lower-income communities, disrupt essential services, and are expected to reduce South Africa’s GDP by 2% this year.
In response, Zola Electric is proud to have partnered with Wetility and Vincent Maposa to provide its FLEX MAX units to combat load shedding and empower South Africans! Through the #BeastBundle, and alongside Tendai Mtawarira, the company is reinforcing its commitment to driving energy access and energy equality through the provision of clean, affordable, and reliable energy.
“As we continue our mission of eradicating energy inequality, and powering the three billion people, and hundreds of millions of businesses, schools, and clinics, currently lacking energy access, we invite you to follow us on our journey.” Zola Electric said.
