Africa’s Energy Transition: A Balancing Act
At #SolarStorageLiveAfrica, experts discussed the path to renewable energy:
💡 "Almost every country has its own challenges & will have a unique journey." – Prof. Prathaban Moodley
💡 "SA will transition at a pace & scale it can afford." – Simphiwe Ngwanya
💡 "We still have work to do to scale renewables." – Melusi Thabatha

Big decision coming on Monday from South Africa’s environment minister @Dr_Dion_George linking ongoing waivers for @Eskom_SA meeting minimum emission standards with a more explicit commitment around closure of old coal plants and support for the nation’s energy transition. In a statement today, the Minister also criticized Eskom’s monopoly which has stifled competition and slowed the adoption of renewable energy. He called for the Transmission System Operator to be fully independent to ensure fair grid access, warning that without this step, reliance on outdated coal plants will persist.

IRENA: Solar accounts for three-quarters of all renewable energy capacity additions in 2024 https://t.co/vk1wVY992o #solar

[Simon Stiell @simonstiell]

The clean energy boom keeps breaking records as @IRENA data shows.

In 2024:
✅ 90% of new power additions were renewables.
✅ Renewables grew by 15%, mainly solar.

Bringing huge benefits: New jobs, global competitiveness, and higher living standards.
