Various Long-Term Mitigation Scenarios (LTMS) estimate that emissions will quadruple between 2003 and 2050 in the absence of radical energy-choice changes. This increase will mostly come from energyrelated emissions, notably from the electricity, industrial and transport sectors. South Africa is expanding renewable energy, weighing up nuclear energy, exploring carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies, and leveraging Demand Side Management (DSM) initiatives. South Africa’s public electricity utility, Eskom, also has a target to reduce dependence on conventional coal to 70% by 2025, and to provide at least 1 600 megawatts in renewable capacity by 2025 (mostly large-scale solar and wind). The early stages of a formal Green Technology policy are evidenced by voluntary energy efficiency programs that are being driven by industry; these will presumably be adapted by the South African Government as a mandatory standard in due course. A case in point is the South African industry standard SANS 204 that sets guidelines for energy efficiency in buildings with and without artificial ventilation or air-conditioning.
