South Africa’s plans to build 14 500 km of new transmission lines by 2034 will depend on the capacity of its construction and manufacturing industries.

In Part 1 of Episode 2 of Creamer Media’s IN FOCUS: Grid of the Future, we speak to Sagren Moodley, chairperson of the Power Operations & Leadership Association of Southern Africa (Polasa).

He discusses the industry’s readiness for the scale of the planned expansion, procurement challenges, opportunities for local manufacturers and contractors, skills shortages, and what is needed to accelerate the rollout of critical electricity infrastructure.
