South Africa’s cities are making “good progress” in the low carbon transition, says new @SEA_UrbanEnergy report. Cities account for 40% of SA’s total energy consumption. Energy governance, the report says, is in crisis with vested interests capturing the policy space

[Sustainable Energy Africa @SEA_UrbanEnergy]

20yrs ago, the role of SA’s cities in the sustainable energy transition and the SCALE of their energy consumption was unknown. Today, they’re the centre of changing the country’s energy demands

We move into the Dialogue on #DemocratisationofEnergy This afternoon and again, #MeganEustonBrown as the Moderator, is introducing the theme highlighting how it links with the #StateofEnergyInCitiesReport2020

What does Energy-Democracy mean for you in 2020 and the next 20 yrs?

“Cities are energy intensive nodes - the dominating in fuel consumption including liquid fuels and electricity from a user perspective, the transport sector emerges as the largest energy user in city” - Yachika Reddy

#soeincities2020 #democratizationofenergy #SEA20yranniversary

[Sustainable Energy Africa @SEA_UrbanEnergy]

Sifts in energy governance have been seen as many cities developed energy and climate action plans, the challenge still remains in actioning plans - shifting also from top-down planning to a flat approach that includes everyone/every stakeholder- YachikaReddy

#soeincities2020

[Sustainable Energy Africa @SEA_UrbanEnergy]

Mobility has become a central focus on energy demand in cities, as the fastest growing source of emmissions with road transport accounting for 90% within the sector, EVs may be a means to mitigate the current spiking consumption pattern within the transport sector

[Sustainable Energy Africa @SEA_UrbanEnergy]

Mr Holeni #Miyelaniholeni touches on
“Cities becoming more powerful than provinces/national gov due to their growing numbers and revenue generation capabilities, Policies and consensus needed to ensure
key actions taken towards lowering cities carbon footprint”
#soeincities2020

[Sustainable Energy Africa @SEA_UrbanEnergy]

Mr Xolile George, -
“Out of this crisis, emerges an opportunity of us to seize the moment and drive a much more transformative agenda, not only to address the shocks, but contradictions in society,- Poverty, unemployment and inequality, from an energy perspective”

[Sustainable Energy Africa @SEA_UrbanEnergy]

Session kicks off at 10, the moderator for the day has welcome our main Speaker for the day, #Xolilegeorge the CEO OF @SALGA_Gov and @Miyelani group chief adviser of #Ntinyisoconsulting
