South African wind power can help absorb coal industry job losses, Siemens Gamesa says
Coal-fired power stations provide 80% of the country’s power, and about 120,000 jobs in South Africa depend on the coal industry. That creates political and social barriers to reducing coal reliance. Winand argues that wind power can provide new energy for South Africa faster than any other source, and can compensate for many of the jobs that will be lost in coal. Source link
