Energy Transition in Africa

Acknowledgements

Energy Transition in Africa xi Acknowledgements This book came as a suggestion from Mr Jurgen Knop who suggested that there is a need to develop a route for Africa’s transition to renewable energy. His main observation was that Africa has the potential to lead the world in the production and supply of renewable energy. Putting the book together would have been an unachievable task had it not been for the efforts of the following individuals: ■ Mr Shingirirai Mutanga, project manager ■ Ms Nomasonto Magano, project assistance ■ Ms Amanda Short, research administrator These individuals, together with the constant support from AISA’s Publications Division, oversaw the processes that ensured that the book goes through the required stages of its development.

The financial support for the book was providedbytheAfricaInstituteofSouthAfricatogetherwiththeDepartment of Science and Technology. ...
