Africa's first utility-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) initiative is stepping in to keep the lights on. When energy demand peaks, the facility captures and stores surplus renewable energy.

This groundbreaking infrastructure is stabilising the national grid, reducing curtailment, accelerating the deployment of clean energy across the continent, and attracting global expertise to the region. It is more than just a battery system; it is a critical foundation for a continent-wide shift towards more sustainable power generation.

Watch how this project is powering the future: https://t.co/vMgyYh8w2i #Mission300

South Africa is a significant vehicle exporter with roughly 400.000 units. The conversion of the automotive industry to Electric Vehicles is a major challenge. The government is finally putting in place the necessary incentives, but more will certainly be needed in light of tariifs being introduced in importing markets. @mailandguardian
