The Revego Podcast Series
Ahead of the Revego Africa Energy Fund listing, we discuss the future of renewables as an investment theme, and Revego's investment case. Our panel includes experts from the industry and the Revego team, moderated by Chris Yelland, energy analyst and managing director of EE Business Intelligence.
How Africa can drive the global clean energy transition.
Africa’s power and energy challenges – but abundance of renewable energy sources – also make it the continent best positioned to lead the transition to clean energy.
In this episode, the panel unpacks the concept of renewable energy – how it differs from other forms of energy, where it fits into the overall energy universe – but also discuss why renewables could be the solution for reducing the world’s dependence on fossil fuels as well as why Africa can drive that change.
Panellists: Abel Mjiyako, Chief Technical Officer at Revego Fund Managers and Dieter Matzner, a power and infrastructure consultant at Investec Bank
Building, owning and operating an independent power producer (IPP).
Independent power producers have a particularly relevant role to play in South Africa (and the rest of the continent), to both meet rising power demand and to do so in a way that has a minimal impact on the environment. In this episode, our panellists discuss the IPP landscape, the role they play in meeting energy demand and the specific requirements and challenges of operating an IPP.
Panellists: Mike Meeser, chief investment officer, Revego Fund Managers; Ziyaad Sarang, chief financial officer, Revego Fund Managers and Mo Hoosen, head of power and gas, ENGIE Africa
