            <description><![CDATA[A group of employees at a Cape Town-based renewable energy company has come together to form a choir and record its own rendition of one of the most celebrated songs ever written about the continent in celebration of Heritage Day.  The Red Rocket employees (Rocketeers) come from different parts of the business and, outside our normal working day, have spent hours upon hours rehearsing Toto’s Africa ahead of the big day. ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Africa’s carbon markets are moving into a new phase, with governments strengthening policy, investors looking for credible projects and growing attention on how the continent can unlock more climate finance. These opportunities will be at the centre of the Carbon Markets Africa Summit (CMAS) 2026, taking place from 13 to 15 October 2026 in Kigali, Rwanda. Policymakers, investors, carbon project developers, corporate buyers and market leaders from across Africa and around the world will come together to explore how high-integrity carbon markets can support investment and sustainable development across the continent.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[The Western Cape’s construction sector is expanding, creating jobs and attracting significant infrastructure investment but ensuring there are enough skilled people and capable businesses to deliver that growth is becoming increasingly important. In 2025, construction created 57,341 jobs in the Western Cape, while the value of completed buildings grew by nearly 34%, even as the sector contracted nationally. The value of building plans passed in the province also reached almost R35 billion, the highest in the country (Western Cape Government, 2026 State of the Province Address).]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Women are playing an increasingly visible role across the construction industry, with greater representation in project delivery, leadership, technology and engineering helping to broaden the sector’s talent pool and strengthen its ability to respond to emerging challenges. Global technology company RIB Software global marketing VP Kim Immelman says the industry has made encouraging progress in creating opportunities for women, although continued efforts to improve diversity and inclusion remain important.]]></description>

            <link>https://www.miningweekly.com/article/beyond-the-carbon-credit-who-sets-the-terms-for-africas-carbon-markets-2026-09-23</link>
            <description><![CDATA[ A carbon credit may be traded as a single unit, but its value is shaped long before it reaches a buyer. Decisions about project ownership, finance, data, verification and benefit-sharing determine who participates, who carries the risk and who ultimately benefits. As new regulations and international partnerships expand market access, these questions are becoming increasingly important across Africa. They will be central to the Carbon Markets Africa Summit (CMAS) 2026, taking place from 13 to 15 October at the Kigali Convention Centre in Rwanda. The summit will convene African governments, project developers, investors, buyers and technical experts involved in decisions across the carbon-market value chain.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[As organisations across the globe grapple with rapid technological advancement, shifting workforce expectations and mounting regulatory pressures, the role of people leaders has never been more complex. According to Aon’s 2025 Human Capital Trends Study, businesses are being challenged to rethink not only how work gets done, but also how talent is attracted, developed and retained. Zanele Dintwa, People Lead at Aon South Africa, says the pace of change is forcing organisations to re-evaluate traditional workforce strategies, leadership capability and the role of technology in the employee experience.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Across South Africa’s townships and rural communities, entrepreneurs are solving real-life problems every day. Sometimes an idea starts with frustration: a service that does not exist, a process that takes too long or a community need that continues to go unmet. At other times, it begins with opportunity – a student finding a smarter way of doing something, a small business owner responding differently to customers or an entrepreneur turning local knowledge into a solution with the potential to grow beyond their community.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[AI is undoubtedly already changing the way industrial organisations think about maintenance. And rightly so, as it packs quite the punch; analysing equipment data, identifying patterns and detecting potential failures before they occur. But, as with most things in life, the sum of the parts is what ultimately leads to success.  For AI to come to its fullest fruition, infrastructure, data and people must also fall into place. This holds particularly true for South Africa where many industrial facilities still comprise older equipment and communication systems.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[AI has moved into businesses faster than many organisations have worked out how to use it well. PwC’s May 2026 AI performance research found that 82% of African organisations are running AI pilots, yet few have scaled them across the enterprise. KPMG’s latest Global AI Pulse, which included South Africa, found that only 7% of leaders had established a return on their AI investment. Dane Walsh, Head of Research and Development at unified sales operations platform Skynamo, sees part of the problem in what happens around the technology. People can become faster at individual tasks without the organisation becoming faster as a whole.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Public procurement represents an estimated 15–22% of GDP in many developing economies (World Bank), making it one of government's most powerful tools for driving economic, social and environmental outcomes. Yet Green Public Procurement (GPP) remains underutilised across much of South Africa's public sector.  For Paul Vos, Regional Managing Director of CIPS Southern Africa, this represents a significant missed opportunity.]]></description>

            <title>Water mist fire suppression provides precision protection for high-value assets</title>
            <link>https://www.miningweekly.com/article/water-mist-fire-suppression-provides-precision-protection-for-high-value-assets-2026-09-22</link>
            <description><![CDATA[When it comes to protecting critical assets in demanding environments, traditional sprinklers and gaseous systems are not always the best fit. Water mist fire suppression has emerged as a highly effective alternative that minimises water damage, supports life safety and offers strong environmental performance, particularly in specialised and high-risk applications. “Clients increasingly want fire protection that is both technically robust and sensitive to their operations,” says ASP Fire CEO Michael van Niekerk. “Water mist systems give us another proven tool in the engineering toolbox, especially where conventional sprinklers, foam or gas systems present unacceptable trade-offs in terms of water damage, downtime or enclosure integrity.”]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Employment in South Africa’s construction industry increased by 39,000 in the second quarter of 2026 (Stats SA, Quarterly Labour Force Survey, Q2 2026), making construction one of the industries to record employment growth during the period. Construction, of which the building industry forms a significant part, remains an important contributor to employment and economic activity. In the Western Cape’s building industry, the Building Industry Bargaining Council (BIBC) brings employer organisations and trade unions together through collective bargaining. Its latest compliance indicators point to measurable improvement, with stronger stakeholder engagement, employer education and targeted enforcement contributing to the shift.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[AI is undoubtedly already changing the way industrial organisations think about maintenance. And rightly so, as it packs quite the punch; analysing equipment data, identifying patterns and detecting potential failures before they occur.  But, as with most things in life, the sum of the parts is what ultimately leads to success.  For AI to come to its fullest fruition, infrastructure, data and people must also fall into place. This holds particularly true for South Africa where many industrial facilities still comprise older equipment and communication systems.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[An analysis of the audited financial statements of the National Bargaining Council for the Road Freight and Logistics Industry (NBCRFLI) has raised alarm bells over the Council’s financial reporting and its reliance on investment earnings. The analysis follows an application for disclosure of the Council’s financial statements brought by Innovative Staffing Solutions (ISS) in March 2024 as part of its High Court proceedings challenging the constitutionality of the NBCRFLI’s Main Collective Agreement, after the Council stopped making its financial statements publicly available. The High Court granted the application, ordering the Council to produce the requested financial documents and, punitively, to pay ISS’s costs, including the costs of two counsel.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[South Africa generated close to 67 million tonnes of hazardous waste in 2017, and more than 93% of it was sent to landfill, according to the country's National Waste Management Strategy (NWMS). Much of that volume is made up of solvents, waste oils, contaminated liquids and reactive chemicals, and when these are mishandled, their effects rarely stay on the property that produced them. Toxins move into groundwater, settle in soil and reach the air that nearby communities breathe. World ...]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[I still see businesses drawing a neat line between IT operations and cybersecurity. One team looks after Microsoft 365, user access, endpoints, backups, patches and support, while security is handled through separate tools, policies or specialist providers. That separation starts to look less convincing in the course of an ordinary support day. A user reports a suspicious sign-in after asking for help with their account. A new laptop needs to be configured for someone working remotely. A supplier needs access to a system to resolve a fault. These are everyday IT requests, but each one can quickly raise questions about identity, access, device security, or the need for further investigation.]]></description>

Part and parcel of this journey is recognising that in order to successfully realise sustainability commitments, practical steps need to be taken. According to Rohit Chashta, Sustainability Business Lead, Africa, SE Advisory Services at Schneider Electric, the biggest gap is not the ambition but the execution thereof. ]]></description>

            <link>https://www.miningweekly.com/article/hungry-for-power-stepping-up-switchgear-manufacturing-in-south-africa-2026-09-21</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Demand for switchgear is growing fast in South Africa, particularly among mines and other industrial clients using medium-voltage switchgear. With annual compound growth rates of between 7% and 12%, SA is outpacing its industrialised peers and even demand across the wider Africa and Middle East regions. A considerable amount of this new demand comes from the country's energy transition. From converting voltages for onsite motors to buying infrastructure for energy sites such as solar farms, mines are among the single-biggest buyers of switchgear. The mining sector has a particular demand for ruggedised, high-reliability switchgear backed by local support and parts.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Grid-connected rooftop solar owners have until 30 September 2026 to register installations up to 50kW with Eskom or the applicable municipality, to avoid registration fees. As the local solar industry matures, with installations now having broken the 8.3 GW mark, the compliance and insurance landscape for Small-Scale Embedded Generation (SSEG) systems like solar, has also shifted.  According to Eskom, to make compliance simple, the utility will waive registration‑related charges for eligible systems until 30 September 2026. It says that customers only need to submit a Certificate of Compliance (CoC), an inverter test certificate, and a test report for the installation. ]]></description>
