Energy Council of South Africa

The Energy Council of South Africa is a CEO-led platform that brings together senior leadership from across the energy ecosystem, including public and private sector companies, business associations, and financial institutions. It serves as a structured space for alignment, where industry can engage constructively with government on the country’s most pressing energy challenges. At its core, the Council exists to support a more coherent, coordinated approach to the energy transition—one that recognises both the urgency of reform and the complexity of implementation.

The Council’s work is grounded in the practical realities of the sector. It focuses on identifying constraints, sharing insights, and advancing solutions that can be implemented at pace. This includes supporting policy and regulatory development, strengthening institutional capacity, and enabling investment across the energy value chain.
