ISA awarded Net Zero Carbon Level 1 certificate

Location: News

ISA awarded Net Zero Carbon Level 1 certificate

The Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA) has awarded Infrastructure South Africa (ISA) a Net Zero Carbon Level 1: Building Emissions certification for the standardised design of small clinics.

Cabinet approved the establishment of Infrastructure SA, which is responsible for raising additional funding for the projects, and driving efforts to ensure that implementation is expedited and projects are completed.

It is governed under the executive authority of the Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure. The top governance structure within ISA is the Infrastructure Investment Committee (IIC), chaired by the Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure.

The development of a standardised design for frequently designed public assets, such as small clinics, is a mandate given to ISA by Cabinet in 2021 for the purposes of accelerating planning and delivery of social infrastructure, developing updated cost estimates and reducing professional service costs for frequently delivered public infrastructure.

The Net Zero Carbon Level 1 Building Emissions certificate is defined as ‘a building that is highly energy-efficient, and the remaining energy use is from renewable energy, preferably on-site but also off-site where absolutely necessary, so that there are zero net carbon emissions on an annual basis (Net Zero)’.

“The updated designs provided by ISA mean that a small clinic will be able to cover its own operational electrical consumption with its own embedded renewable energy system which leads to a design that reduces onsite bulk service provision and greatly reduced operational costs, over the building’s lifecycle,” Mbasa Tshombe from ISA.

Tshombe said they are still consulting with the various stakeholders prior to making a presentation before Cabinet.

“We are hoping the presentation before Cabinet will be early next year,” he said.

In addition, the building materials and services have been designed at green building best practice standards, including technologies related to water efficiency, waste reduction and energy efficiency.

“The building is simple to build and prioritises low skill labour. Its major wall and floor material is either Biomass Insulated Concrete (BIC) or other suitable alternative technology building material with impressive sustainability criteria,” said Tshombe.

The building has been designed in response to the major challenges facing SA clinics, which include cross infection, waiting times and access for people with disabilities.

ISA has over the past few months worked on a long-term plan for infrastructure development across the country, the National Infrastructure Plan (NIP) 2050.

About R6.224 trillion is estimated to be needed in infrastructure finance between 2016 and 2040.

ISA is an infrastructure centre of excellence and is established as a single point of entry for infrastructure planning, management, and delivery.

It is a catalyst for closing the infrastructure investment gap and meeting the infrastructure target set out in the National Development Plan, and provides best practises in project preparation, leadership on infrastructure planning, technical and financial support for nationally prioritised infrastructure projects and programmes.

The Green Building Council SA was formed in 2007 to lead the greening of South Africa’s commercial property sector. They provide the tools, training, knowledge and networks to promote green building practices across the country and build a national movement that will change the way the world is built. – SAnews.gov.za

Cabinet approves Just Energy Transition Implementation Location

Location: News

Cabinet approves Just Energy Transition Implementation Plan

Cabinet has approved the Just Energy Transition Implementation Plan (JET IP), which will guide South Africa’s transition to a low carbon economy through the scaling up of renewable energy sources.  

The JET IP sets out a number of interventions South Africa needs and investments required for the country to transition to a low carbon and climate resilient economy in line with the National Determined Contributions presented to the United Nations. 

Minister in The Presidency Khumbudzo Ntshavheni said on Monday Cabinet is of the view that the JET IP demonstrates South Africa’s commitment to a just transition in line with the country’s energy needs. 

She said the JET IP will be driven by a combination of reforms in the energy sector, including the Mpumalanga Just Transition, new energy vehicles and green hydrogen, among others.

“The plan further responds to South Africa’s commitments under the Paris Agreement and United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change as well as NDP [National Development Plan] commitments.

“The Jet IP will enable South Africa to gradually meet its carbon emissions reduction commitments while at same time, it will ensure inclusive economic growth, energy security and employment,” Ntshavheni said during a post-Cabinet media briefing. 

Criminal Assets Recovery Account

Cabinet has also approved the use of monies in the Criminal Asset Recovery Account to fight against illegal mining and other crimes. 

Ntshavheni said R2 172 359 is allocated to fight illicit mining which continues to be a threat to the South African economy.  

“The money is allocated to the SAPS [South African Police Service], SANDF [South African National Defence Force], Department of Home Affairs and Border Management Agency. The SAPS will use the funding to buy vehicles, helicopters, nyalas and will deploy more than 4000 officers for 18 months,” Ntshavheni explained.

Illegal mining and other organised crimes cost South Africa billions of rands each year and it affects the country’s position as an investment destination, the Minister said.

National Petroleum Company Bill

Cabinet has also approved the publication of the South African National Petroleum Company (SANPC) Bill for public comment. 

The Bill gives effect to the Cabinet decision to merge PetroSA, South African Gas Development Company (iGas) and the Strategic Fuel Fund.

Ntshavheni noted that the Bill makes provisions for the establishment of a state-owned company that will ensure South Africa participates meaningfully in oil and gas development. 

“It will also guarantee the country’s security of energy supply to support economic development and growth. The SANPC will oversee strategic planning, coordination and governance of the country’s petroleum resources and this will contribute to development and job creation,” the Minister explained.

Draft National Public Transport Subsidy Policy 

Cabinet also approved the Gazetting of the draft National Public Transport Subsidy Policy for public comment. 

The policy proposes that South Africa’s public transport funding should move from subsidising a particular mode of transport to a user-subsidy model.

“Government recognises that the transport sector is at the heart of the country’s development with most households completely reliant on public transport for mobility.”

African Peer Review Mechanism celebrations  

Meanwhile, Cabinet has considered and supported the request for South Africa to host the 20th anniversary celebrations of the African Peer Review Mechanism (APMR) from 23 to 30 November 2023. 

The Minister said South Africa supports the APRM mission to promote the African Union’s shared values of democratic governance and inclusive development on the continent. 

The 20th anniversary celebrations will include the participation of current and former Heads of State and government, and the African Union Commission. – SAnews.gov.za

How to: Easy steps to register to vote online

As voter registrations get underway in earnest ahead of the 2024 National and Provincial Elections, the Independent Electoral Commission has made it easier than ever to register to vote using their website.

The IEC’s website is a one-stop voter information portal.

Voters can use this portal to register to vote, view or update their current voter address, find their voting station, request a special vote, or simply browse for important information such as upcoming election dates in their ward.

You can register to vote by following these easy steps:

  1. Get your SA ID card/book ready and go to the link registertovote.elections.org.za.
  2. Enter your personal information: ID number, name and surname, and mobile number. The Chief Electoral Officer must compile and maintain a national common voters' roll. The personal information required is for purposes of achieving this legal requirement and will not be used for any other purpose as required by the Protection of Personal Information Act, No. 4 of 2013.
  3. A one-time pin (OTP) will be sent to your cellphone number. Insert the pin and click on “confirm pin”.
  4. Capture your home address. You can type your address and select from the list or enter your address and click the search button.
  5. Review and acknowledge your information in the voter registration summary. This page will also tell you your ward and voting district.
  6. Tick the declaration box and then click on ID verification.
  7. Take a photo or upload a scan of your SA ID and click on continue.
  8. Your voter registration application has been submitted successfully. The IEC will verify the application and will notify you once it has been processed. You will receive an sms notification.

To submit an application to register to vote, you must meet the following requirements:

  • be a South Africa citizen;
  • be at least 16 years (you can only vote from age 18).

What you need to upload when using online voter registration:

  • green barcoded ID book
  • smart ID card,
  • temporary ID certificate (TIC)

You are only registered to vote once you have received a receipt via SMS or email, or have confirmed that you are registered.

Since the Commission launched the online registration portal in July 2021, a total of 1.1 million registration transactions have been recorded.

The portal has experienced a hive of activity this year with 52% of all transactions being recorded in the eleven months of the year. New registrations amount to 40.6% of total online registration activity. Women are the majority users of the online portal at 56%. Young persons under the age of 29 indicate a strong usage level at 49.6%.

Voter registration weekend

Meanwhile, the Department of Home Affairs will be extending its operating hours for the voter registration weekend on 18 and 19 November 2023, to provide ID services and related support to eligible voters.

Operating hours will be aligned with those of the IEC, starting from 08:00 to 17:00, and the main service to be offered is ID collection and application.

Temporary Identification Certificates will be issued on the spot to those who have lost or misplaced their IDs.

Electoral Commission Chief Electoral Officer Sy Mamabolo has called on all adult South Africans to seize the moment by registering as voters this coming weekend.

“Only those who are on the voters’ roll can have a say in the electoral outcomes next year,” Mamabolo said at a briefing on Wednesday. – SAnews.gov.za

N West legislature urges voters to collect IDs for voter registration weekend

N West legislature urges voters to collect IDs for voter registration weekend

The North West Provincial Legislature Deputy Speaker, Linah Miga, has encouraged voters across the province to collect their identity documents (IDs) at various offices of the Department of Home Affairs for voter registration weekend on 18 and 19 November 2023. 

This follows the establishment of the North West Provincial Home Affairs Stakeholder Forum, which serves as a mechanism for ensuring collaborations in addressing services related to the Department of Home Affairs. 

“Through engagements at this forum, it came to light that there are thousands of ID smart cards that have not been collected from the various district offices of the Department of Home Affairs,” said Miga. 

Citing the provincial report on uncollected IDs in the North West, Miga said there are 26 863 smart IDs in 15 district offices, as well as 684 green ID books that are still yet to be collected as of 6 November 2023.

“Considering that a lower voter turnout was reported in the past elections, particularly in the North West, the legislature wishes to plead with all communities to visit the Home Affairs offices in their areas for collection of smart IDs. 

“The call to action is made urgent by the fact that voter registration for the 2024 general elections is scheduled for 18 and 19 November 2023 in the various stations across the country including the province.

“It is, therefore, imperative for those who have not collected IDs to do so to embrace and honour their right to vote in the coming General Elections,” Miga said. 

The Provincial Home Affairs Stakeholders Forum encourages communities to visit their voting stations from 7:00 and 17:00 on Saturday and Sunday. 

“I further plead the citizens of the North West province to go in numbers and register to vote because it is your right.” – SAnews.gov.za
