Sectional title complexes in South Africa could make their own biogas to help beat load-shedding
Of the multitude of crises facing South Africa at the moment, the energy crisis probably receives the most coverage; “load-shedding” is a swear word among South Africans. Other problems, however, are more likely to be top of mind for those directly affected by them.
Millions of South Africans still lack access to basic safe sanitation and, to make matters worse, it is reported that roughly half of the country’s sewerage works fail to treat sewage properly while some 40% are in critical condition. On the opposite end of the digestive tract, South Africans also face soaring food prices, driven in part by record fertiliser prices as the Ukraine conflict affects global supply.
