South Africa - Best Business Opportunities, Identification and Selection of r...Ajjay Kumar Gupta
Introduction
South Africa has not one but three capital cities. More precisely, the government branches are divided among three major South African cities: Pretoria, Cape Town, and Bloemfontein. South Africa is the second largest economy in Africa.
BUSINESS SECTORS
Agriculture
South Africa has a dual agricultural economy, with both well-developed commercial farming and more subsistence-based production in the deep rural areas. Agricultural activities range from intensive crop production and mixed farming in winter rainfall and high summer rainfall areas to cattle ranching in the bushveld and sheep farming in the arid regions.
Forestry and Fisheries
The main challenge in fisheries is to create a balance between maximizing the social and economic potential of the fisheries industry; protecting the integrity and quality of the country's marine and coastal ecosystems and addressing transformation in the sector.
Tourism
South Africa's scenic beauty, magnificent outdoors, sunny climate, cultural diversity and reputation for delivering value for money have made it one of the world's fastest growing leisure – and business – travel destinations. The tourism industry continues to play an important role in the South African economy.
Mining and Mineral
Mining in South Africa has been the main driving force behind the history and development of Africa's most advanced and richest economy, after Nigeria. The industry remains the biggest contributor to the country's gross domestic product. The mining industry has embraced a new way of doing business.
Energy Sector
Energy development is a field of endeavor focused on making available sufficient primary energy sources and secondary energy forms to meet the needs of society. The South African energy sector has been, and continues to be, at the centre of the country’s development.

This third webinar in the series 'CCS in Developing Countries' was presented by the World Bank.
Deploying CCS in developing countries is critically important. The International Energy Agency estimates that to achieve global emissions reduction targets 70% of CCS projects will be in non-OECD countries by 2050.
CCS faces a number of challenges, in all countries, but particularly in developing countries. This webinar discussed some of these challenges and barriers using South Africa as a case study. South Africa is working towards a Test Injection Project and subsequently a Carbon Capture and Sequestration Project. The World Bank considered it important to understand a set of constraints, including regulatory, technical, economic, human capacity, etc. to realization of CCS demonstration and commercialization, and how the CCS development will look like in the South African context, out to 2050. A techno-economic assessment has been undertaken to gain this understanding.
The techno-economic assessment explored CCS deployment in six relevant industries in South Africa, and assessed projected scenarios associated with key issues of interest (such as cost, impact on electricity prices, timeframes etc). The key output from the techno-economic study was a techno-economic model, supported by the data sets, specifically for South Africa. The potential storage site capacity has been analysed to provide a strong indication of the likely storage capacity available within physical and economic constraints.
Webinar Series: Public engagement, education and outreach for CCS. Part 2: CC...Global CCS Institute
The second webinar in the public engagement, education and outreach for CCS Series took a more in-depth look at CCS education, specifically the creation and delivery of CCS education programs within developing countries.
Education has long been recognised as a critical component in understanding how science, society, and adaptation influence thinking about issues impacting our climate. As an emerging technology with an important role to play in shaping our low carbon energy future, CCS plays a role in our teaching around these topics in both developed and developing countries.
In this webinar, geochemist and renowned CCS education professional Sallie Greenberg, PhD, was joined by the Stakeholder Engagement Team from the South African Centre for Carbon Capture & Storage (SACCCS) to discuss the key learnings and experiences highlighted in, CCS education in developing countries a recent guidance paper for the Global CCS Institute.
Drawing on learning from existing CCS education initiatives and good practice from the wider education literature, Dr Greenberg highlighted areas of universal approach while facing particular challenges when working in the context of a developing country. Ms Polly Modiko, the Head of Stakeholder Engagement at SACCCS, then introduced the comprehensive program of education and outreach activities that the SACCCS team have been developing to support exploration of opportunities for an onshore Pilot CO2 Storage Project (PCSP) in South Africa.
This entire Webinar Series has been designed to hear directly from the experts and project practitioners researching and delivering public engagement, education and outreach best practice for CCS. This second Webinar combined elements of education research with real world application and discussion, showcasing important learnings, and concluding with links to further education resources for those wishing to learn more.

REFRAMING CLIMATE JUSTICE FOR DEVELOPMENT: SIX PRINCIPLES FOR SUPPORTING INCLUSIVE AND EQUITABLE ENERGY TRANSITIONS IN LOW-EMITTING ENERGY-POOR AFRICAN COUNTRIES
By Mimi Alemayehou, Katie Auth, Murefu Barasa, Morgan Bazilian, Brad Handler, Uzo Iweala, Todd Moss, Rose Mutiso, Zainab Usman
Advancing inclusive and equitable energy transitions is one of this century’s most vital global challenges, and one in which development finance will play a crucial role. References to justice and equity are widespread in international climate policy, and are increasingly being used by development organizations to guide their own work, including support for energy transitions.
But prevailing definitions of climate justice rarely fully capture the priorities, challenges and perspectives of low-emitting energy-poor countries, the vast majority of which are in sub-Saharan Africa. When applied to development policy, this gap risks prioritizing near-term emissions reductions over broader support for economic development and energy transformation, with comparatively little climate benefit. This could severely hinder poverty alleviation, development, and climate resilience — the very opposite of justice. We need energy transitions that are truly ‘just and inclusive.’ What does this mean for development funders and financiers, and how should it drive their approach to supporting energy transitions in the lowest-income countries?

Synopsis:
The energy system has historically been characterised as “mature”, displaying small, incremental technological improvements and low levels of both public and private research intensity. However, over the past decade this situation has been changing, illustrated by significiant increases in public and private energy R&D expenditure across many countries in reaction to strengthening concerns around fossil fuel prices, climate change and energy security. These challenges have driven the search for alternative sources of energy, as well as more efficient ways of extracting and consuming fossil fuels. As support grows for energy innovation so too does the need to understand how energy innovation unfolds with a view to ensure that the vast public and private resources currently being committed to innovation in this sector are being deployed effectively.
In this context the talk outlines the Energy Strategy Fellowship’s current research project, which seeks to map out systems of energy innovation for a range of countries and technologies, measure the effectiveness of these different arrangements and compare different approaches with a view to learning lessons for successful energy research and innovation policy. Following a discussion of the drivers that have led to this renaissance in energy innovation and the project’s research objectives, the talk introduces the different technology and country case studies under examination, the methods employed and some of the innovation theory that underpins this research. Finally, the talk explores some emerging issues in the field of energy technology innovation the project engages with, such as the globalised nature of energy innovation, the role of the private sector and energy innovation outside ‘Western’ countries.
Biography:
Matthew has worked as a Research Associate within the RCUK Energy Strategy Fellowship team at Imperial College since 2012. His research examines the types of conditions responsible for accelerating the development and deployment of energy technologies with the potential to address critical challenges facing the global energy sector, such as climate change, energy security and fuel poverty. This work examines the development of a handful of promising, high-profile energy technologies across a variety of different countries worldwide to understand what makes for an effective energy innovation system. Prior to this he undertook his PhD thesis at the University of Leeds from 2009 exploring how the application of innovative energy business models could help to drive forward sustainability transitions.

In India, financial inclusion remains a critical challenge, with a significant portion of the population still unbanked. Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) have emerged as key players in bridging this gap by providing financial services to those often overlooked by traditional banking institutions. This article delves into how NBFCs are fostering financial inclusion and empowering the unbanked.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

2. Introduction
• 2009 was a year of turmoil in the global economy
• UNU-WIDER developed its 3-crisis work
programme (2010-13) in response to three large
scale global phenomena:
– Finance
– Food
– Climate change
• Alongside our traditional (foundational) focus on:
poverty and inequality
3. Policy Challenges for Climate Change
• Adaptation: steps to reduce vulnerability to
climate shocks and sustain economic
development
• Mitigation: steps to reduce emissions of GHGs
and hence climate warming and uncertainty
4. UNU-WIDER’s Response
• The ReCom aid, environment and climate change initiative
• Development Under Climate Change (DUCC)
– Looking at the Zambezi and MENA regions + Vietnam and others
• Collaboration with AERC
– Building research capacity for climate research
• A series of contributions to the IPCC process
• Consultations and conferences
– At different levels (national governments, RIO+20 and much
more)
– September 2012 WIDER development conference: bringing
researchers, policy makers together to share knowledge and
debate issues -> formulating effective policy
5. Conference Background: Where Did the
World Find Itself in 2012?
• Financial crisis lingering on AND future of
development finance unclear
• The global food system (architecture) clearly
still under pressure
• Climate scientists even more pessimistic about
future global warming (4 degrees rather than 2)
6. Conference Messages: Back to “Big”
Development Economics
• As a profession we must not shy away from thinking deeply about:
– Large scale (global) phenomena
– Uncertainty/extreme (low probability) events are critical
challenges
– Conflict and global governance
• True across finance, food, and climate change
• Developing optimal policy designs will require:
– Continuing to move out of the “silos”
– Integrating data/knowledge from natural and social science
– Recognising global solutions require deep understanding of
national interests

9. 2014-18 UNU-WIDER Work Programme
• 15 Major Research Projects
– ongoing within three themes: http://www.wider.unu.edu/research/en_GB/index/
• Transformation
– remains at the core of economic development
– requires that economic growth reallocate resources towards more productive sectors
• Inclusion
– inequality is a key challenge for economic growth and redistribution, but also translates into power
asymmetries that can endanger democratization and human rights
• Sustainability
– a multifaceted concern with environmental, social and economic dimensions
– fundamental policy and investment decisions in energy, water resources, infrastructure, and
agriculture interact strongly with environmental issues at the global, regional, and national levels
10. Two Major Current Projects
• Southern Africa Regional
– Climate impacts for South Africa
– Bioenergy
– Regional growth strategies
• African Energy Futures
– Regional and continental collaboration
– Hydropower exploitation/potential
– System linkages
11. Questions for Today
• What are the implications of climate change for
growth and development prospects to about
2050?
– Focus on South Africa
• Is a regional energy strategy anchored in
hydropower viable for Africa?
– Focus on Southern Africa with explicit
modeling for South Africa, the major demand
source.

18. Spatial variation on potential climate change
impacts on the average annual catchment
runoff by 2050. Median impacts from resulting from
the HFDs analysis for the UCE scenario.
All models show
drying in the west,
and most models
show wetting in
the east, but with
some models
showing some
drying. Generally
increases over
Lesotho.
19. Climate Change Impact Channels
• World commodity prices
– Consistent with unconstrained emissions scenario
• Road infrastructure
– Costs to maintain the same road network
• Water supplies
– Affects agriculture, industry and households
• Dryland agriculture
– Crop yield deviations
• Simulations are cumulative
24. South Africa Impacts Summary
• Based on the impact channels considered, we expect:
– Mild negative implications for overall GDP growth
– Increased costs to maintain the same transport
infrastructure resulting in consistent losses
– Potentially strong economic impacts for
• Dry land agriculture (broad confidence intervals)
• Water availability in certain WMAs
• Infrastructure on a localized basis
• Particular zones vulnerable to sea level rise
25. Questions for Today

growth and development prospects to about
2050?
– Focus on South Africa
• Is a regional energy strategy anchored in
hydropower viable for Africa?
– Focus on Southern Africa with explicit

29. Modeling Focus
• Grand Inga in the DRC as the major potential
new source of supply.
• South Africa as the major source of demand.
• Building in regional/continental demands is in
process.
30. Economic Model (SAGE)
• Standard Recursive Dynamic Model
– Past investment and profitability determines capital accumulation
rates
– Upward sloping labor supply curves
• Additional features:
– Electricity investments amortized via electricity tariffs (+O&M costs)
– Energy coefficients are a function of energy prices and investment
funds
• 2007 SAM merged with 2007 Energy Balance Table
– 62 sectors; 49 products; 9 factors; 14 representative households
– Detailed energy subsectors (fuel and power)
– See Arndt et al. (2012) SAJE; Davies and Thurlow (2014) IFPRI SAM
31. Energy Model (SATIM)
• Version of TIMES
– Inter-temporal bottom-up
partial equilibrium model
– Only use power component
• Solves for least-cost power
plant mix
– Subject to constraints (i.e.,
electricity demand; reserve
margins; and resource limits)

38. Conclusions: Regional Energy Strategy
• Carbon tax on its own:
– Small negative economic impact, incl. reduced household welfare
• Lifting import restrictions without a tax:
– Lowers investment costs and emissions, but gains are small
• Combining a carbon tax with import liberalization:
– Halves investment costs and meets emissions targets without reducing
growth or welfare (but employment falls)
• Regional energy strategy offers a less expensive approach to
“decarbonizing” the South African economy
– Also addresses political economy concerns over adjustment costs
