Agence française de développement (AFD) has approved a €650 000 (about R12-million) grant to facilitate a two-year technical cooperation programme between RTE international and the National Transmission Company South Africa (NTCSA). This collaboration between the French and South African electricity transmission operators has been formalised through a memorandum of understanding involving Eskom, RTE international, AFD, and NTCSA, signed on the sidelines of the Africa Energy Forum in Cape Town.
