SA imported an entire Eskom power station’s worth of solar panels – in just 6 months

South Africa quadrupled its solar panel imports from China in the first half of 2023 to 3.4GW – which, at peak production, amounts to nearly the generation capacity of Eskom’s Duvha or Matla power stations. Duvha and Matla have an installed capacity of 3.6GW each.
