In this episode, we invite authors from the Centre for Sustainability Transitions, Stellenbosch university and collaborators from McGill university to discuss their article “Radical Incrementalism in Action Through Institutional Work: Case Studies of Embedded Research in South Africa”. As part of our special Eco-Justice and Climate Action series, the authors explore the complexities of navigating changemaking from within institutions. Listen in to discover secrets to radical change through slow and steady processes!In this episode, our co-hosts Joe and Blane introduce the team and the article at the center of today's discussion. They begin by grounding listeners in the broader context of South Africa for those who may be less familiar with its history and contemporary dynamics [2:20], before moving into the deeper motivations and relationships behind their collaboration and the development of the concept of radical incrementalism [4:15]. What does this term mean, and how is it done? Our own curiosity increased as we continued our conversation.– What gave rise to this feeling that they needed another way to think about how to pursue change? Some critical scholars might challenge the idea that incrementalism can actually be radical, perhaps the idea represents an abandonment of the drastic and immediate “change we need” concept? So, we ask the authors to respond to this critique [5:15]. The episode then explores how radical incrementalism is actually done, and the messiness and complexity behind this way of working, including questions of embeddedness, role conflicts, ethical dilemmas, and the importance of political literacy [26:27]. Finally, the conversation closes with reflections on how these ideas are shaping daily practice, and what kinds of changes the guests have observed as a result [37:40].

Biographies: Mark Swilling is a Distinguished Professor and a former Co-Director of the Centre for Sustainability Transitions at Stellenbosch University, South Africa. He is an international expert in sustainable development, with over thirty years of experience in ‘societal transitions' (with special reference to urban systems), initially focusing on democratisation and governance during the Apartheid era in South Africa. The primary research focus of his career can be defined as ‘societal transitions,' more recently within the broader discipline of sustainability science and governance at the global level. His published research was coupled to major institution-building collaborations. This achievement was recognised in 2010 when he was awarded the Aspen Faculty Pioneer Award for success in introducing sustainability into leadership education. Dr. Elaine Huang is currently a Research Associate at the Faculty of Education, McGill University. Her research examines how the social sciences can contribute to just and sustainable futures by advancing ethical collaboration, institutional transformation, and collective learning. She is particularly interested in how researchers engage with the politics, evolving normativity, and uncertainties inherent in real-world change processes to serve the public good. Grounded in reflexive and relational approaches, her work reimagines knowledge production as a generative space for ethical engagement, systemic thinking, and transformative practice—both within and beyond academic institutions.Alboricah Rathupetsane is a PhD Candidate and Junior Researcher at the Centre for Sustainability Transitions in Stellenbosch University, South Africa. Her research sits at the intersection of industrial policy, decarbonisation and infrastructure development within the country's just transition agenda. Her doctoral work examines the role of infrastructure megaprojects in catalysing industrial revival, specifically focusing on strengthening the participation of local steel firms in South Africa's electricity grid expansion programme.Mlondi Ndovela is a PhD candidate at the Centre for Sustainability Transitions, Stellenbosch University, South Africa. His work focuses on co-developing and applying a non-equilibrium model to understand the broader macroeconomic implications of the energy transition in South Africa. This work draws its influences from systems dynamics/non-linear dynamics, stock-flow consistent approach, complexity economics and laws of thermodynamics.Priscilla Jezi is a part-time PhD Candidate with the Centre for Sustainability Transitions at Stellenbosch University in South Africa. She was a full-time employee at an Energy state-owned enterprise as a specialist in development finance with more than 20 years of experience in energy and finance. Responsible for Sustainable Financing, a lead in sourcing funding for Just Energy Transition Projects. She is Head of Treasury Bank Funding for a state- owned Development Bank. An embedded researcher; her current PhD work focus on the emerging Transition Finance approach, which enables and accelerates energy transitions.

South Africa has fewer than 400 public electric vehicle charging stations – up from zero just 15 years ago – and EV adoption remains stubbornly slow. Yet Charge, formerly known as Zero Carbon Charge, is betting big that a coast-to-coast network of off-grid, renewable-powered charging stations is exactly what's needed to fire up the local market. In this episode of the TechCentral Show, Joubert Roux, co-founder and director of Charge, joins TechCentral's Nkosinathi Ndlovu to make the case for the company's ambitious, R1.8-billion plan to roll out a charging station every 150km along South Africa's national highways – and to explain why he believes the company is taking on “a timing risk, but not a business risk”. Roux walks TechCentral through the December 2024 launch of Charge's first site near Wolmaransstad and the unit economics underpinning the roll-out: just seven vehicles a day at each station are needed to reach Ebitda break-even. He also explains why every facility is designed to operate entirely off-grid, citing data showing that EVs charged on Eskom's coal-heavy network emit 5.8 tonnes of carbon-dioxide a year, more than a comparable petrol car at 4.4 tonnes. The conversation also tackles Charge's unconventional fundraising strategy: a tokenised public offering on Mesh rather than a JSE listing, planned for June 2026. Roux argues that South Africa's institutional capital is “extremely conservative” and that tokenisation will finally let ordinary investors into an infrastructure deal that has historically demanded R1-million minimums. The Development Bank of Southern Africa has already committed R100-million. Roux and Ndlovu also discuss: • How landowners hosting Charge stations receive 5% of charging revenue, and the rural economic development case that sits behind that model; • The offtake agreement with transport aggregator Zimi covering 50% of capacity at upcoming N3 corridor sites; • Charge's formal objection to Sanral's proposed policy giving it powers over businesses within 60m of national roads or 500m of interchanges, and the broader regulatory headwinds facing EV infrastructure; • How BYD's planned 1MW supercharger network and incumbent operators like GridCars – which already records 5 000 charge sessions a month – are reshaping the competitive landscape; • Plans for 35MW truck-charging facilities and a long-term target of 120 stations across the national route network; and • Roux's prediction on when South Africa will hit its EV tipping point – and the two ingredients he says the market still needs: sub-R500 000 EVs and a genuinely reliable national charging network.

A currency becomes “internationalized” when it is widely used beyond its home economy for trade, financial transactions, and as a store of value. Achieving that status can lower transaction costs and exchange rate risks, while also enhancing the issuing country's geopolitical influence. Today, the global financial system remains overwhelmingly dollar-centric, with China's renminbi playing a comparatively modest role. Yet over the past decade, Beijing has taken steps to expand its global use, expanding offshore renminbi markets, establishing bilateral swap lines, and developing alternative payment infrastructure.  To help us unpack where China's renminbi internationalization efforts stand today, we are joined by Zongyuan Zoe Liu, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. Zoe's research centers on international political economy and global financial markets, with a focus on China and East Asia, as well as the Middle East.

The IMF's economic outlook for Africa in 2026 points to an average GDP growth rate of 4.3% – making it the fastest-growing region globally. In practice, however, per capita growth is far lower and various factors like persistent debt issues and a decline in official development assistance jeopardise this positive outlook.  In this episode, guests Mavis Owusu-Gyamfi (African Center for Economic Transformation) and Admassu Tadesse (Trade and Development Bank) explore strategies to ensure sustained economic growth matching the promising outlook for the continent. They discuss untapped policy actions to spur economic transformation as well as the role of regional financial institutions to meet the needs of African countries shaping their development agendas.

Interview with Anthony Viljoen, CEO of Andrada MiningOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/andrada-mining-atm-bulk-lithium-production-strategic-partner-search-3172Recording date: 27 September 2024Andrada Mining, formerly Afritin Mining, is positioning itself as a key player in the critical minerals sector, with operations centered in Namibia. The company's focus on tin, tantalum, and lithium production, along with recent copper exploration success, offers investors exposure to a diverse portfolio of in-demand metals.Core Operations and Financial PerformanceAndrada's primary asset is the Uis mine in Namibia, a polymetallic operation currently producing tin and tantalum. The company reports positive cash flow, with CEO Anthony Viljoen stating, "All-in sustaining costs targets sitting around $27,000/ton of tin, and we're selling for about $33,000." This margin is expected to improve significantly with the integration of lithium production.Expansion PlansAndrada has outlined ambitious growth targets:Increase tin production by 60% in the next 6-12 monthsAchieve 40,000 tons of annual lithium concentrate productionLong-term vision of 5-10 times increase in production across all metalsStrategic PartnershipsThe company's resource base is substantial, with Viljoen noting the ore body at Uis is "incredibly vast," potentially supporting a century-long mine life. Strategic PartnershipsAndrada has secured partnerships with Development Bank of Namibia, Orion Resource Partners and SQM (Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile). The SQM partnership is particularly significant, validating Andrada's lithium assets and providing industry expertise.Competitive AdvantageAndrada's polymetallic approach provides a natural hedge against single commodity price volatility. The potential to become one of the lowest-cost hard rock lithium producers globally could give Andrada a significant edge in the growing lithium market.Market OutlookKey risks include commodity price volatility, execution risks associated with planned expansions, potential infrastructure constraints, and geopolitical risks, though Namibia is considered an investor-friendly jurisdiction. The critical minerals sector is experiencing strong demand growth, driven by the green energy transition and technological advancements. Lithium demand could increase by up to 40 times by 2040, according to the International Energy Agency, in a scenario aligned with Paris Agreement goals.Andrada Mining offers investors exposure to a diverse portfolio of critical minerals, potential for low-cost production, particularly in lithium, significant growth prospects backed by ambitious expansion plans, strategic partnerships validating assets and approach, and a positive cash flow, reducing financial risk compared to many junior miners.Investors should monitor Andrada's execution of its growth strategy, particularly the integration of lithium production, and keep an eye on global critical mineral prices. The company's success in achieving its expansion targets and maintaining low production costs will be crucial in realizing its potential in the evolving critical minerals market.View Andrada Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/andrada-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
