Electric power has transformed the course of humanity and has become a vital component of infrastructure building, thus nation and economy building. Generation of electric power is diverse in nature and the establishments in the industry keep innovating and reinventing technologies for a higher yield.

The power generation market consists of establishments primarily engaged in operating electric power generation facilities. They produce electric energy and provide electricity to transmission systems or to electric power distribution systems. The production can be from a variety of sources including fossil fuels such as coal, oil, natural gas; water, nuclear, solar, wind and other renewables.

In the last decade (2010-2020), the electricity generation has increased by 2.2% from 21,570 terawatt hours to 26,823 terawatt hours. During the same period, the power generation from oil decreased by 2.24%, gas increased by 2.55%, coal increased by 0.88%, nuclear decreased by 0.25%, hydro increased by 2.26%, renewables increased by 15.25% and from other sources increased by 0.68%.

The power generation market is undergoing a systemic change where the maximum increase in new power generation capacity is primarily from renewable energy generation sources. The share of renewables in the total energy mix grew from 3.53% in 2010 to 11.73% in 2020.

South Africa Power Generation Scenario

In 2020, the electric power generation in South Africa was 239.46 terawatt hours, accounting for 0.89% of the power generation in the world. The percentage of population with access to electricity was 85. 0.6% of the power was generated from oil, 0.78% from gas, 84.53% was from coal, while 5.26% was from renewable sources. Among the renewable sources, solar accounted for 41.1% and wind accounted for 55.49%. During 2015-2020, the electricity generation decreased by 0.87%.

The installed capacity of Solar Photovoltaic in South Africa was 5490 MW while for wind it was 2636 MW. The capacity increased by 34.41% and 19.56% for solar and wind respectively, since 2015.
