Energy Services
The term Energy Services (ES) is used to describe three interrelated energy market segments in the South African energy space, namely:
- smallscale embedded generation (SSEG) encompassing system sizes <1 MWp;
- energy storage; and
- energy efficiency (EE).
The energy services sector, which forms an integral part of GreenCape’s energy programme, aims to support the growth of the renewable energy and energy efficiency industries in South Africa.
Service providers in the energy space are increasingly offering holistic solutions to end users, which include options of both efficiency and own generation or combinations of both.
This is achieved by building and maintaining key relationships between actors across the value chain, growing our understanding of the space, identifying and unlocking barriers to investments and most importantly providing key industry players with valuable and objective market insights.
All of which aligns itself with GreenCape’s mandate of unlocking investment opportunities and creating jobs.
