State-owned power utility Eskom is on track to ensure that the country’s electricity sector achieves net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, with an increase in sustainable jobs, should its Strategy 2035 continue to be effectively implemented, says Eskom Just Energy Transition (JET) GM Mandy Rambharos. “Although it is a joint responsibility of all sectors to contributing to decarbonising South Africa, decarbonising the electricity sector, which contributes 41% of the country’s carbon emissions, will have a significant positive impact overall.”
