The reindustrialisation of South Africa is an absolute must and it is good to see that public-private collaboration has been successfully applied to bring dormant industrial infrastructure back to life. South Africa’s once-huge ferroalloy business only came into being because of competitively priced electricity and it is only competitively priced electricity that can bring it back to life.

The exemplary way that business and government have been working in the ferroalloys space must now be applied across the board to ensure that South Africa’s reindustrialisation is accelerated.
