The Mozambique Transmission Company (MOTRACO) is a key player in the electricity sector in the southern African region. Founded in 1998, it emerged as the result of a strategic partnership between three electricity companies from neighboring countries: Electricidade de Moçambique (EDM), Eskom Holding Limited (Eskom) of South Africa and Eswatini Electricity Company (EEC) of Swaziland.
The collaboration between these three companies was motivated by the need to improve the electricity transmission infrastructure in the region and strengthen energy integration between the countries. Each of MOTRACO's parent companies brought its experience, resources and knowledge to the venture, which enabled the establishment of an effective and reliable electricity transmission network.
