COAL PASSING ON THE BATON TO RENEWABLES:

Many far-sighted coal company managers predicted that coal would, over time, pass on the energy baton to renewables, but few emphasised that this would be for compelling business reasons. Now renewables are coming in at below R1/kWh, which leaves coal and nuclear in their dust. There is no longer any doubt that renewable energy, in addition to serving the decarbonisation needs of the planet and also creating a mouth-watering number of jobs, presents an overwhelmingly strong business case.
