Pledging for affordable energy and reducing poverty
At COP28, world leaders committed to tripling global renewable energy capacity by the end of this decade to accelerate the transition from fossil fuels to cleaner, more sustainable energy. Urgent action is needed to meet these targets. Africa holds 60% of the world's best solar resources, offering a significant opportunity for renewable energy. Despite this, the continent attracts only 3% of global energy investment, and some 600 million people, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa, still lack access to electricity...
South Africa approves the South African Renewable Energy Masterplan
South Africa has approved its South African Renewable Energy Masterplan (SAREM) a roadmap to boost energy security and industrial development planning to increase its renewable capacity by up to 5 GW annually. The energy masterplan seeks to expand renewable energy capacity and battery storage solutions in the coming years, considering that the country's demand is expected to double by 2040...
Africa's solar energy potential makes for a bright future for renewable power
The release of the South African Renewable Energy Master Plan (SAREM) is a positive step towards providing certainty for investors, but more needs to be done to avoid delays and uncertainty as the demand for renewable energy grows, according to an expert. Released on 26 March, the SAREM provides a comprehensive framework for the further development of South Africa's renewable energy industry, initially focusing on developing solar and wind energy and lithium and vanadium-based battery technologies, aligning with domestic supply-side capabilities...
