#InTheNews | For more than a decade, South Africa’s energy sector was stuck in a constant state of crisis. But come 2025, and we finally saw a real step change across the industry, as we started to move from firefighting to future-facing mode. Our CEO, David McDonald, shares five big power moves from the past 12 months that are set to shape the energy landscape in 2026.

#InTheNews | NERSA - RSA granted the National Transmission Company South Africa a Market Operator licence yesterday. As the country ramps up to the launch of the South African Wholesale Electricity Market (SAWEM) in 2026, this decision provides a clear market framework for wheeling and trading and promotes non‑discriminatory grid access (with a better use of scarce capacity). But what does this mean for C&I businesses? More choice and more control. With a more competitive market, businesses have the ability to truly choose where they buy their power from so that they can get the most financial, operational and sustainability benefits from it. This lies at the core of our Electricity 2.0 suite of solutions, including Wheeling and energy trading, and we're excited to see what 2026 holds for the country's electricity market.

11/11/11 is a very special date here at SolarAfrica: it's our birthday! On 11 November 2011, SolarAfrica (known as NVI Advisory back then) was officially founded🎉 Over the past 14 years, we've gone from pioneering Power Purchase Agreements in South Africa to offering a full suite of virtual and on-site energy solutions – all designed to bring the benefits of renewable energy to Commercial & Industrial businesses in South Africa. This includes bringing our first utility-scale solar farm, SunCentral, online next year! Innovating for our customers has always been part of our DNA: when loadshedding hit, we found ways to make C&I-scale battery storage accessible for them. As soon as Wheeling offered a glimmer of financial relief to electricity users, we jumped at the opportunity to ensure we can bring this solution to our customers. We've also received our energy trading licence and are working on even more ways to bring greener, cheaper power to more businesses across South Africa – so watch this space! And behind it all is the secret to our success: #TeamSolarAfrica. Here's to everyone who works tirelessly, every day, to make our vision a reality and to bring businesses the energy solutions of tomorrow. #SolarAfrica #BusinessMilestone #14YearsOfMakingADifference
