The Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (DTIC) has committed to resolving the challenges flagged by investors during a site visit to the Atlantis Special Economic Zone (SEZ), in the Western Cape, earlier this week, Deputy Minister Nomalungelo Gina says. Major challenges faced by investors in the renewable energy sector that are located in the SEZ were highlighted during the visit, including concerns around policy uncertainty surrounding the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP) and speeding up the process of the Bid Window 5 implementation, as well as local content manufacturing on designated steel products.
