RSA Target : 26 030 MW by 2030

(As of Nov 2021)

This document got started because I was frustrated by the lack of information about the progress that South Africa has been making/ not making on installing renewable energy. So I started collecting my own. And I was blown away.

I have listed a total of

16618.43

⁠

MW of renewable energy. And before anybody says “Buuut, the sun doesn’t shine at night!!”: I have counted a total of

3456

⁠

MWh of storage so far. Further, there is a total of

5514.5

⁠

MW of Wind power installation. And the wind blows at all times of the day.

Searchable Table - Renewable Energy in South Africa A list of projects - completed, in progress and planned.⁠

This contains a searchable list of energy projects in RSA. Search by country, province, or town.

Or check which developer has the most projects, or the most Megawatt.

⁠

Types of Energy Storage⁠

This is a list of possible ways to store energy, it is very, very early in the building of this table. It is on storage energy types in general, not implementation projects

⁠

I have not yet searched for any announcements of electricity to be generated as part of the embedded generation now allowed to mines and large industrial companies. Nor do I take into account “small” projects, like those done by

Solar Exchange⁠
