Renewable energy uptake on the rise in South Africa, says Enel Green Power

Renewable energy company Enel Green Power South Africa country manager William Price comments that, despite the delays experienced with the procurement of capacity under the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP), he is not surprised by the country’s continuous project development in the renewable energy space. He notes that this is driven by high utility price increases, the continuation of load-shedding and the ever-increasing demand for energy.
