Time and tide wait for no man! Be badly in need of energy transformation in South Africa

Solar photovoltaic net news: according to the news reported on July 15, 24 hours, Eskom recently a lot of lightening power brownouts fully shows the company unable to fulfill its mission, to ensure that the power supply safety when economy is in recession, which raised questions about whether South Africa should be increased for renewable energy technologies.

energy systems research group at the university of Cape Town, said solar net, Eskom during the recession of the electricity demand, lightening release strong signal, solar panels, indicate that South Africa needs to take measures to improve its capacity. Solar photovoltaic and wind power and other renewable energy technologies for South Africa is the lowest cost of energy, cheaper than coal. According to independent think tank climate data, global coal-fired electricity has fallen by 3% in 2019, and the wind and solar power generation has increased by 15% and 8% of the world's total output.

climate justice league also think that solar energy equipment, the South African government seems to have been & other; Stalling for time & throughout; , society should have urged the government to implement energy transformation plan, this may include mantashe mineral resources and energy minister to step down. Mantashe has been pushing fossil fuels, rather than solve this crisis. If you do not promote the implementation of renewable energy, solar energy, the next few years in South Africa are still may face the risk of lightening.
