"The amount of capital you need for renewables is far less than you need for conventional energy."

Dirk de Vos on the lessons of the South African Govt’s renewables scheme for the rest of Africa

Dirk de Vos runs a corporate finance consultancy, QED Solutions, in Cape Town and has been advising the renewable energy sector in South Africa for the last 5 years. He talks about: the advantages that renewables have over “big energy” projects; the South African renewable energy scheme; the process of awarding contracts to bidders; the social aspect of the contracts; the amount of energy South Africa will produce from renewables; and the lessons for the rest of the continent from the scheme.
