South Africa’s path to a sustainable energy future is complicated by problems with energy storage technologies.
at a pivotal moment in its energy transition : trying to decarbonise its economy and make sure that everyone has access to reliable and affordable energy. Storage of renewable energy is very important for this transition. Solar and wind power are not available all the time. To keep the national grid stable, renewable energy must be stored somewhere and supplied reliably.
My research found that in the past, pumped storage schemes were a significant part of South Africa’s plans for expanding its electricity generation capacity. However, interest in this form of renewable energy storage has declined. This is mainly because of concerns in the industry that there may not be enough water to make these possible in future.
Energy storage technologies, particularly batteries, lower greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, they can drive decarbonisation.
