Energy crisis: South Africa must see nuclear light

Nuclear power is touted as the solution to South Africa's energy future despite concerns over cost and time.

Government’s announcement of the Section 34 determination to start the process to procure 2 500 megawatts of new nuclear capacity was met with criticism from various experts and environmental nongovernmental organisations, although others said it was “moving in the right direction”.“By strategically incorporating nuclear power into its energy mix, South Africa can enhance energy security, reduce environmental impact and foster sustainable economic development,” she said.

“The world is realising that nuclear is good and nuclear will help solve the energy crisis we all face in the world,” she said. Samantha Ralston-Paton, the birds and renewable energy project manager at BirdLife South Africa, said the fatalities were recorded in other threatened and priority species, including the Verreaux’s eagle , the martial eagle , the Cape vulture , and the secretary bird .

He said it was expected to take 10 to 15 years to deliver a new nuclear power. “Therefore it is not a solution to our electricity needs”.“Between now and 2035, when new nuclear power could theoretically come on stream, there is going to be built approximately 60 000MW of variable renewable energy,” he said.
