South Africa is at a pivotal moment in its energy transition: trying to decarbonise its economy (move away from coal) and make sure that everyone has access to reliable and affordable energy. Storage of renewable energy is very important for this transition. Solar and wind power are not available all the time.
In South Africa, battery storage is increasingly seen as a key pillar to help provide grid stability and integrate variable renewables given its ageing coal-fired power fleet and grid.
With this strategic pivot to solar and battery storage, South Africa not only asserts its commitment to sustainable development but also positions itself as a leader in the ecological transition on the African continent. Discover details on South Africa's strategic shift towards renewable energy with new solar and battery storage projects.
