The emergency power procurement programme, besieged by delays and legal challenges, is finally gaining momentum after the signing of the first power purchase agreements

Agreements for the rollout of three of the 11 successful bids for SA’s emergency power procurement programme, which was launched in 2020 to supplement the country’s immediate energy shortfall with about 2,000MW of power supply to help alleviate load-shedding, were signed on Thursday by Eskom, the government and the bidding company.

The three projects, all from the same bidder, will add 150MW of dispatchable solar energy to the Eskom grid when it comes online within the next 14 to 20 months...A subscription helps you enjoy the best of our business content every day along with benefits such as articles from our international business news partners; ProfileData financial data; and digital access to the Sunday Times and Sunday Times Daily.

IF we'd started this process 5 years ago, there'd be no load-shedding now.

We are a coal super power… with our current financial woes… one must question these decisions… did Biden invest in the Chinese factory making these solar panels? Or did the Biden family invest in the Chinese mining company mining the cobalt in the DRC? or is it both?

Being the head of the home isn't easy, you are expected to provide for the home, I lost my job during the pandemic and relied on the little money I had,things were hard until I met Allison_Grillo and started Bitcoin trading, I earned R150,000 in 3 weeks thanks Allison_Grillo.

I was scammed through Bitcoin couple of months ago, I started hating Bitcoin until I was introduced to Allison_Grillo, and I gave Bitcoin trading another try, I successfully withdrew $35,000 after two weeks of trading, am so grateful Allison_Grillo thank you.
