Additionally, the spike in economics participation would encourage private sector investment, perhaps to build resorts, casinos, and hotels therefore creating jobs in the hospitality industry

(The tallest building in Africa is not in South Africa.)

The programme would create jobs/employment in
• geology
• Sustainability
• administration
• human resource management
• engineering and built environment
• logistics and supply chain
• construction
• energy

Subsequently, more jobs in
• Health
• education

The national @The_DHS can initiate a decentralisation program, focusing the majority of its budget in RDP housing in the Northern Cape.

The collaboration with CETA accredited companies would up-skill young people by educating, training and providing work experience

In contrast, the Northern Cape is the largest province in the country with a population of less than 2 million people. The province takes over 370 thousand km² of land.

This means literally over 20 Gautengs can fit inside the province.

Housing development and tourist attraction

Gauteng is the smallest province with land area of under 20 thousand km², and a population of nearly 15 million people.

1. Solar on public schools nationwide
2. Solar on warehouses
3. Large scale Hydroelectricity project in a coastal area
4. State owned pumped hydro storage for REIPP
5. Wind power from traffic

[Urban Renewable Energy @UrbanRenewable]

The collective value of the produce is likely to attract private sector investment.

Companies like @CheckersSA, @FoodLoversMkt, @PicknPay could create jobs in transportation, packaging, production, etc.

Additionally, the lot sizes allow for growth and expansion of the program

Commercialisation of subsistence farming

Limpopo (@OtpLimpopo) is a lush province with the tastiest produce (fruits and vegetables)

• Most people grow their own fruits and vegetables
• The yards are big enough

Additionally, water is affordable in the province

• the @DALRRDgov_ZA could implement an "agri-cwp" in the province where residents collect mangoes, for example, from multiple households
• the produce weighed and the household contribution logged

[Urban Renewable Energy @UrbanRenewable]

• the produce may be sold at street value in local markets
• each household may be paid per kg

This would create income for the households

@agri_seta can provide training, & @DALRRDgov_ZA, pesticides and herbicides to ensure high quality produce and yields.

[Urban Renewable Energy @UrbanRenewable]

The @Energy_ZA has the opportunity to purchase the power from @DBE_SA for cheap

The funds can be used by @DBE_SA for infrastructural development, feeding schemes, social development programs, bursary programmes

This creates sustainability for schools

[Urban Renewable Energy @UrbanRenewable]

The supply of solar components for these projects will increase economic participation as logistics and warehousing demand will increase
• hiring of more drivers
• hiring warehouse staff

Increase of energy will stabilise the economy

1. Solar on public schools nationwide

• there are ±20 000 schools under @DBE_SA
• @Lesufi 's solar program aimed to create 6 000 jobs for technicians
• that makes 6 jobs for every 20 schools

[Urban Renewable Energy @UrbanRenewable]

• This means at least 20 schools for every 6 technicians

• If 2000 schools can be fitted with 5000 W of solar power
that makes 10 Megawatts of renewable into the national grid.

• a 5000 W system (grid-tied), installed by 6 technicians over 2 weeks costs ±R200

if
@Energy_ZA

@Eskom_SA
introduce a feed-in tariff for anyone who has solar
• this would encourage private sector investment in increasing the 5kW benchmark
- increasing scope and capacity
- and jobs created.
