Addressing Zambia’s Energy Crisis: Powering Growth with Reliable Solutions
Zambia’s ongoing energy crisis poses a major challenge to its economy, disrupting productivity in key sectors such as manufacturing, mining, agriculture, and commercial enterprises. Frequent power outages threaten operations, reduce output, and hinder economic progress.
Recognizing the need for dependable power solutions, DGC Africa has partnered with Talisman Hire to launch Talisman Hire Kitwe, a joint venture providing generator rentals and sales to mitigate the effects of Zambia’s energy shortages. This initiative aims to sustain essential operations and support economic stability across multiple industries.
