COUNTRY SPOTLIGHT- South Africa- The role of the Private Sector in the Energy Transition

South Africa has immense potential to further expand its renewable energy production when compared with other regions and represents a significant investment opportunity to diversify its power infrastructure. This session highlights growth areas in South Africa, along with the challenges and opportunities that exist. 

Areas for discussion include: 

  • How will South Africa navigate a tougher global regulatory environment as the world pushes for a net zero?
  • How will infrastructure projects be unlocked through public-private collaboration?
  • Whilst it is agreed that the speed in how we develop more power is critical to our socio-economic development, the real challenge is how many truly bankable projects are available to investors to consider.
  • Perspectives from developers leading projects.
