LOCAL CONTENT VERIFICATION UPDATE • National Solar Water Heater Programme Municipal Workshop • Burgers Park Hotel, Pretoria 30 May 2014
PRESENTATION OUTLINE INTRODUCTION SWH RFRI PROCESS LOCAL CONTENT VERIFICARION OBSERVATIONS
INTRODUCTION The 1 million solar water heater (SWH) systems’ installation remains the government’s short-tem target. Funding is proposed over the current Medium term Expenditure Framework. The ultimate is to better utilise public purse to address other persistent developmental challenges - the national SWH rollout needs to be viewed in this light. An additional 4 million SWH systems are envisioned to be installed by 2030. These bold targets seek to lay solid foundation for the establishment of a robust local SWH manufacturing base for South Africa.
