The Philippines is currently developing its very own Just Transition Framework. Through extensive co-creation processes, the Framework is the product of inclusive, bottom-up co-development. And it is set to be the first JT Framework in Southeast Asia! #justtransitionPH

SAREM is near the finish line, or should I say the starting blocks of implementation. The #RenewableEnergy Masterplan is as needed as when its process was initiated - if not more. Let's look forward! https://t.co/cz1gEqXcq3

SA imports of #solarpanels reached $355 million (R6.4bn) in 2024. That's over $1.6bn in 3 years, or an estimated 9.6GW worth of panels! Yet another reminder of the importance of taking SAREM forward, as emphasised again by DM @SamGrahamMare at @SolarPower_RSA this morning

And another $1 billion of imports of #solarpanel, #inverters and lithium-ion #batteries in SA, in just the 1st nine months of 2024! That's over US$ 11 billion since 2014... The implementation of the SA #renewablenergy Masterplan (SAREM) cannot come soon enough.

Look who is back! Investment in #windenergy in SA is once again on the rise, as depicted by the imports (Q1-Q3) of wind turbines in 2024. This trend must be sustained to break the historical stop-start pattern and drive #greenindustrialisation going forward.

Critical step towards a #justtransition to #emobility in the automotive value chain. Hopefully, the 1st of many (many!) centres in the country. There are about 250 000 mechanics in SA... https://t.co/jidDvQW0mS
