This book provides a succinct overview of the evolution of policies
addressing energy and climate justice in South Africa. Drawing on a
range of analytical perspectives, including socio-technical
studies, just transitions, and critical political economy, it
explains why South Africa's energy transition from a
coal-dependent, centralised power generation and distribution
system has been so slow, and reveals the types of socio-political
inequalities that persist across regimes and energy sources. Topics
explored include critical approaches to the South African state and
its state-owned energy provider, Eskom; the political ecologies of
coal and water; the politics of non-renewable energy alternatives;
as well as the trajectory and fate of the Renewable Energy
Independent Power Producers Procurement Programme (REIPPPP), the
country's major renewable energy policy. The book concludes with
reflections on alternative, neglected energy and development paths,
suggesting how the political economy of South Africa's energy
system could be further transformed for the better.
