PANews reported on March 14th that, according to Bitcoin Magazine citing local media reports, South African power company Eskom is exploring selling excess daytime electricity to Bitcoin mining companies, given the widespread adoption of rooftop solar installations which reduces daytime grid demand. The rapid proliferation of rooftop solar systems in South Africa has begun to reshape the country's electricity demand structure. Many households and businesses now generate their own electricity during the day, leaving Eskom with idle capacity once the solar panels begin generating power.
