Klappentext zu „From Coal to Community: How Renewable Energy Can Create Jobs and Strengthen Local Economies “
Private investment into renewable energy technologies has surged in the last decade for a variety of reasons. Climate change mitigation commitments and the increasing competitiveness in renewable energy prices have driven the proliferation of these technologies in recent years. South Africa saw significant investment into renewable energy technologies through a competitive bidding procurement programme launched in 2011; however, renewable energy in South Africa has been on the national agenda since 1998 as an industry that should be promoted to decarbonise and diversify the electricity sector, create employment, and stimulate the economy (Department of Mineral and Energy, 1998) (Aliyu, et al., 2017). The role of renewable energy in the South African economy is therefore multi-faceted, and although still at a price premium to previously-built conventional energy sources such as coal and nuclear, has been labelled as 'inherently excellent for achieving positive socio-economic objectives' (DoE, 2013c) (pp8). Following the success of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producers Procurement Programme (REIPPPP) in this regard, a Small Projects Independent Power Producers Procurement Programme (SP-IPPPP) was launched to further localise the industry and provide smaller project developers the opportunity to participate in this field. This chapter will introduce renewable energy and the SP-IPPPP in South Africa and provide the research problem statement that motivated this research inquiry into the social and economic commitments of the 'Preferred Bidders' under SP-IPPPP.
Autoren-Porträt von Molina
Dr. Molina, for your Conservation Biology course, I propose "Ecosystem Chaos: Invasive Species Impact." This book tackles the devastating impact of invasive species on ecological balance. We'll explore how these invaders disrupt food webs, outcompete native species, and contribute to biodiversity loss, causing a ripple effect of chaos through ecosystems worldwide. Real-world case studies paint a clear picture of the ecological and economic damage these species inflict.But "Ecosystem Chaos" isn't all doom and gloom. The book explores strategies for managing invasive populations, from preventative measures and control techniques to public awareness campaigns. It's a call to action for anyone concerned about the future of our planet's ecosystems and the fight against invasive species.
