is in abundance in 2017 coal fired plants generated over 3 quarters of electricity as a consequence south africa accounts for almost half of all c o 2 emissions of the entire african continent the government now wants a more sustainable low carbon economy so energy is becoming increasingly important and cape town is at the center of these developments. political this solar system can be set up quickly almost anywhere within just 2 days it's producing electricity it's environmentally friendly and it's cheap solar technology has as has advanced in such a way that the environmental benefit is no longer the only selling argument cost of coming down so significantly the ease of insulation has become. a real seller. the company delivers solar power from cape town in south africa to the whole

continent the equipment can fit into a container this is how a school in southern sudan was supplied with power. we have rural areas that are far from the main national grid and haven't built a system that's built into a full container with all the equipment you need to set up. going into deeper parts of africa where you don't have access to tools and engineering services. the market for solar systems is growing in south africa where prices for conventional energy have risen sharply in the last 5 years. in the freak growing area and yes there is free to stored in large cold stores sometimes for months this involves high energy costs which is why this company has equipped its raif with solar cells some 7000 tons of c o 2 have been saved over the last 4 years. with our

sun i think the cost of solar panels now. is a way off topic i thing it not too much knowledge you need you can focus on the best as you don't have to focus on. getting some power i think solar panels definitely be easiest way and a base way to go. but there is only limited freedom to decide the energy mix in south africa grego coirpre advisors companies on the installation of solar systems until now the market has been dominated by eskom which decides on the installation of solar cells that can take a long time because solar energy is a strong competitor for existing providers. main challenges here is predominantly upon the straight and the acceptance let's say by the decision makers to integrate more capacity because i believe the industry is right for the consumers are right for. the south african government wants to liberalize the electricity market

further change comes slowly but there is great potential for renewable energy well as further into this story in there our correspondent joins us from nairobi joy look at this right is south africa's scramble ridden state power company eskom really deciding over who can install what kind of solar panels. well your hand i can i cannot exactly confirm that but what i know for sure is. ask him which he said the distributor of electricity in south africa actually does rely on a lot of coal and saw him bracing renewable energy solutions means that they're actually going to be affected their revenue streams are going to be affected by this seeing as 85 percent of the electricity in south africa comes from cool. isn't that doesn't that mean that eskom compu really keen for anyone to install

cola because it runs against their core business that that's correct because what we see right now is that between the us of 272015 s calm has actually increased its terrorists it has increased its terrorists just because there has been competition coming in from renewable energy in places like kid town renewable energy or solar p.v. adoption has been very high and because of this s. cons revenues have dipped a bit sending it in to date and they've had to actually ask the government to bail them out which is an indication that there is a problem there and recently we saw a lot shading that was in the month of february going up into march and this was because the quality of call that was being produced at the time could not produce enough electricity to distribute across the $16000000.00 subscribers across the

country coming back to renewables in south africa which areas that are running well i would assume solar because there's sunshine in abundance what about wind geothermal. if you look at the statistics that from eskom they actually say coal takes the bigger share but then if you look at there in europe or renewables or it will energy solutions we're looking at hydroelectric power which takes the bigger share of renewables and then we have wind and then we have nuclear we she's definitely not that clean and then solar p.v. comes in right at the bottom and despite the potential that south africa has to explore. the solar p.v. they don't seem to be adopting it save for areas like cape town and if they do this they have to do it is we competitive part as arguments as well as storage mechanisms to allow for solar power to flourish in the country. there are from

use plastic plastic is a problem and how much plastic we use that's a problem. the ban does not apply to carrier bags made of other materials. we notice the difference today fewer people buy plastic bags so this is reducing the use of bags right away. like there's a loss i just don't understand why wasn't on its ear a total ban on single use plastic bags would take effect from the start of 2021. this year twin cyclons left mozambique devastated thousands and millions of dollars in damage across the region now. slowly rebuilding their lives while still grappling with the economic fallout mozambique is fighting hard to recover from the devastation caused by cyclons and kenneth the 2 storms killed thousands many more
