The Presidential Climate Commission (PCC) is expected to hold the National Colloquium on South Africa\u2019s long-term electricity planning and the Just Energy Transition this week.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The PCC was formed by President Cyril Ramaphosa and Cabinet in 2020 to oversee and facilitate a just transition from a high carbon economy to a low emissions and climate resilient economy.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
According to the PCC, the colloquium will bring together various stakeholders to review the commission\u2019s recommendations on the country\u2019s \u201celectricity generation mix, governance and just energy transition investments\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\u201cThe colloquium follows a series of information and consultation sessions that the PCC has been facilitating with South Africa\u2019s social partners \u2013 business, civil society, government and labour \u2013 as well as youth and the faith community.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\u201cThe outcomes of these dialogue events will underpin the colloquium, which in turn will provide stakeholders with the opportunity to interrogate and inform the PCC\u2019s consolidated recommendations.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\u201cThe recommendations being prepared by the PCC are in support of the ongoing national Just Transition process and seek to align with the Just Transition Framework approved by Cabinet in 2022,\u201d the PCC said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The recommendations are expected to be submitted to government in the next quarter.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
