President Cyril Ramaphosa says the mining sector has an important role to play in South Africa’s just energy transition.

Ramaphosa addressed delegates at the 2022 Mining Indaba at the CTICC today and said it is vitally important that the country, in its attempts to become less reliant on carbon fuels, implement realistic and sustainable future energy goals.

He said the recent implementation of the Independent Power Producers Programme was a definite step in the right direction.
