GREEN STRATEGY PROGRAMME (GSP)
…inform objectives and activities of departments and
municipalities in the province, so parts of government
working on green issues are focused on the same targets.
… should align to and work co-operatively towards the
vision and programme commitments in this Green
Strategy Programme.
GGDA POSITION ON ENERGY
“To make Gauteng the continental
manufacturing and services hub
for Energy and related industries”
OPPORTUNITIES FROM GREEN STRATEGIC
PROGRAMME (GSP)
Alternative and Efficient Fuel Technologies
•
Objective 5.1: 15% reduction in energy demand in the transport sector by 2025 through a
series of transport efficiency investments. Modal shift towards public transport, freight to
Rail, etc. to reduce demand for energy by the transport sector.
•
Objective 5.2: Reduce dependence on fossil fuels in transport systems. Encourage uptake
of efficient and alternatively-powered vehicles such as hybrid, electric and gas powered
vehicles, considered infrastructure needs to enable these alternative fuels to be used.
DEPARTMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT
Solar Rooftops
It is estimated that the rollout of 300MW in 8 million square meters of roof tops could cost
approximately R6 billion (R20 million per MW). The entire cost can be funded through energy
savings with a pay-back period of about 7 years. A number of private sector companies are
currently exploring opportunities to invest in the establishment of solar panel manufacturing
facilities in South Africa. A standard factory producing up to 150MW/year can be set up in
period of 6-12 months.
