Why SA must include renewable energy sources in its energy mix?

tester [92]

There is also a great deal of industry in South Africa, particularly in the mining of metals, as one of the country's largest exports. This extraction uses huge amounts of energy in the process and most of this equipment used in the extraction pumps toxic gases and chemicals into the atmosphere, if SA uses more renewable energy sources, the levels of pollution will decrease.
