State of renewable energy in South Africa

A new report released by the Department of Energy, the State of renewable energy in South Africa, indicates that South Africa has "become a world player in renewable energy and is well on its way to achieving government’s goal of 30% clean energy by 2025." 

"The report says world-class sun and strong coastal wind, combined with sensible policy and government partnerships with business, have led to jobs, foreign investment and clean power which reduces load shedding."

The report was developed with support from GIZ and the SA German Energy Programme (SAGEN).
