The South African opportunity
South Africa is undergoing the most significant reform of its electricity sector in a generation. The unbundling of Eskom, the introduction of a competitive wholesale electricity market, and the rapid growth of independent power producers and private power trading are together opening Africa's largest power market to competition, private investment and renewables at scale.

The South African opportunity

The unbundling of Eskom, the introduction of a competitive wholesale electricity market, and the rapid growth of independent power producers and private power trading are together opening Africa's largest power market to competition, private investment and renewables at scale.
These changes are creating strong and growing demand for independent, rigorous market analysis to guide the decisions of investors, developers, utilities, regulators and government.
Aurora is entering this market at a pivotal moment. This is a rare opportunity to join the world's leading power analytics business as part of its very first African team, based in Cape Town, and to help build the business from the ground up while growing your own expertise in one of the world's most dynamic energy markets.
