Elon Musk's father, Errol Musk visits India to promote green technology; know more about his family background, legacy and more
Source: X Errol Musk, father of tech billionaire Elon Musk, has arrived in India for his first-ever visit to the country. The 78-year-old South African engineer and entrepreneur began his trip on Sunday, with a packed schedule centered around discussions in the rapidly advancing green energy sector. His visit is seen as a strategic move, potentially reflecting growing interest in India's renewable energy ambitions. While not directly linked to Elon Musk's ventures, Errol Musk 's engagements are expected to attract attention due to his background and familial ties. According to the recent updates, Errol Musk, the father of Tesla CEO and billionaire Elon Musk is on a five-day tour to India and is likely to visit Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Who is Errol Musk Errol Musk is a South African electromechanical engineer, property developer, and former politician, widely recognised as the father of tech billionaire Elon Musk. Though often linked to his son's fame, Errol has a multifaceted background. He held public office in Pretoria and worked in infrastructure and energy sectors. His personal life has drawn controversy, including a highly criticized relationship with his stepdaughter. Despite contributing to Elon's early interest in engineering, their relationship is strained, with Elon publicly labeling him as toxic. Errol remains a polarizing figure known for his technical skills, turbulent family dynamics, and recent ventures in green energy. Significance of Errol Musk's India visit Errol Musk's first visit to India has drawn considerable interest from business executives and government officials. The visit is a meeting of experience and opportunity, and Musk is set to provide critical advisory services toward developing India's green energy infrastructure. The company also announced that Musk would assist in promoting Servotech's brand digitally, widening its scope even further. Furthermore, as part of his cultural outreach, Musk is also expected to tour significant places of heritage sites, such as the Ayodhya Ram Mandir , symbolizing a mix of business and cultural diplomacy. Errol Musk recently joined Servotech to boost green energy The latest preoccupation of Errol Musk is geared towards sustainable energy solutions. His recent appointment to the Global Advisory Board of Servotech Power Systems , a listed small-cap firm focused on electric vehicle (EV) charging and solar power solutions, highlights his dedication to applying his technical and entrepreneurial skills in promoting innovation in the field of renewable energy. Throughout the one-week duration of his visit, he is to undertake a tour of Servotech's production facilities, meet with senior government officials representing the major ministries, and take part in roundtable discussions with top technocrats and investors. The activities depict the company's desire to consolidate its presence in India's expanding green energy sector. Errol Musk's background and career Born in 1946, Errol Musk has built a diversified career within engineering, infrastructure, and entrepreneurial activities. With a degree in electromechanics, he has developed vast experience in South African energy projects. Throughout his life, Musk has worked in diverse industries such as automotive retail, mining, and large infrastructure projects. Some of his earlier roles involve serving on Pretoria's City Council as a member of the Progressive Federal Party, as a result of his stint in politics. He was elected to the Pretoria City Council in 1972 as a member of the Progressive Federal Party—the first sign of his political inclination. Professionally, Errol had careers in infrastructure development, mining, and auto retail. His personal life overshadows his professional work, however. Errol Musk family ties and a complicated legacy Errol Musk has three children Elon, Kimbal, and Tosca Musk with his ex-wife, Maye Haldeman Musk, a model and dietician. His marriage, which resulted in divorce, has been openly defined by Errol as a failure that he is fully responsible for. "I messed up the marriage, I was completely responsible," he explained to Business Insider South Africa. Maye Musk, though, told a much more sinister account of their relationship. Following his divorce from Maye, Errol enjoyed a brief romantic relationship with Sue. In the 1990s, at the age of 45, he wed Heide Bezuidenhout, who was 25 at the time. The two parents gave birth to two daughters—Alexandra and Asha Rose—before divorcing in 2004. The most contentious chapter of Errol Musk's private life, though, came later on. He began a relationship with Jana Bezuidenhout, Heide's daughter from a previous relationship—basically, his stepdaughter. Jana was four years old when Heide wed Errol, although Errol himself afterwards said he never thought of her as a stepdaughter, pointing to a lack of close familial upbringing. Their relationship resulted in two children, including a son named Elliot Rush. Reflecting on their union, Errol once stated, "We were lonely, lost people. You can call it God's plan or nature's plan." The revelation of the relationship sparked widespread criticism and strained his relationship with many family members. Elon Musk's father net worth According to the reports, Errol Musk net worth is not publicly available but his son Elon Musk current net worth according to Forbes reports estimates around $422 billion, with his fortune soaring alongside.
