Izikhungo zedatha zezinkampani ezinkulu zingosinki bangempela bokusetshenziswa kukagesi, hhayi kuphela ngenxa yokudliwa kwamaseva, kepha futhi ngenxa yokusetshenziswa okuphezulu kokupholisa okudingekayo ukuze amakamelo lapho amaseva atholakala khona agcinwe ngokushisa okwanele ukuze akwazi ukusebenza kahle.
I-Microsoft, njenge-Apple ne-Google inenani elikhulu lezikhungo zedatha ezisabalele emazweni amaningi. I-Apple neGoogle thola amandla amaningi adingekayo ukugcina lezi zikhungo zedatha yamandla avuselelekayo, ikakhulukazi amandla elanga. I-Apple ibisitshale imali kulolu hlobo lomthombo wamandla iminyaka eminingi futhi njengamanje iyasetshenziswa enqubweni yokuhlangana yamadivayisi ahlukene enkampani.
IMicrosoft ifuna ukujoyina i-bandwagon yamandla avuselelekayo ezikhungweni zayo zedatha futhi isanda kumemezela ukuthi ngo-2018, okungenani ama-50% awo wonke amaseva wakho azosebenzisa amandla avuselelekayokungaba elangeni noma emanzini. UBrad Smith, uMongameli weMicrosoft ushicilele izinyathelo ezizolandelwa yinkampani eminyakeni ezayo ukuze zikwazi ukuthola emithonjeni evuselelekayo.
Kuwo wonke umkhakha wezobuchwepheshe, kufanele sazi ukuthi izikhungo zedatha zizobalwa, maphakathi neshumi leminyaka elizayo, phakathi kwabathengi abakhulu bamandla kagesi emhlabeni. Sidinga ukuqhubeka sisebenza ngokuqinile ukuze sakhe futhi sisebenzise izikhungo zemininingwane eluhlaza ezosiza umhlaba.
KwaMicrosoft, lokhu kusho ukudlulela ngaphesheya kwezikhungo zedatha ezingasasebenzisi amalahle njengomthombo wamandla; izikhungo zedatha kufanele zisebenzise amandla avela emoyeni, elanga, nase-hydro ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Namuhla cishe u-44% kagesi osetshenziswa yizikhungo zethu zedatha uvela emithonjeni yethu. Inhloso yethu ukuya kuma-50% ngasekupheleni kuka-2018 nama-60% ekuqaleni kweminyaka eyishumi ezayo bese siqhubeka nokwenza ngcono ukusuka lapho.
