Cape Town has begun plans to move off Eskom's grid and away from power blackouts. It includes procuring power from independent power producers (IPP) but the plan to use solar and wind power for grid electricity has not gone down well with everybody, including Andrew Kenny who is convinced it will push up his electricity bills. Another project to reduce the dependence on Eskom is the Mother City's efforts to produce electricity from landfill gas. The Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Waste management, Alderman Grant Twigg, told BizNews the pilot project will soon be powering a couple of hundred houses and take an important step towards fulfilling Cape Town's pledge to move away from reliance on Eskom. – Linda van Tilburg

As of 2022, the Western Cape Organics Landfill Ban comes into effect. This means that municipalities will be required to divert 50% of the estimated 3 million tonnes of organic waste generated in the province every year from landfills. And that figure increases to a 100% diversion by 2027. The idea is to prevent organic waste from slowly decomposing on landfills where it produces methane – a potent greenhouse gas that has reportedly contributed to about 30% of the rise in global temperatures since the Industrial Revolution.
