# Eskom is set to host an open day for independent power producers and aggregators to showcase its newly launched virtual wheeling solution. This initiative, officially introduced in March, aims to facilitate electricity trading between IPPs and their customers through Eskom’s grid. The virtual wheeling platform allows buyers to purchase electricity from IPPs and have that energy virtually allocated to multiple grid-connected end-users, enhancing scalability. While no virtual wheeling contracts have been concluded yet, Eskom has received several inquiries and encourages interested parties to participate.
