Norway to help with South Africa’s dire energy crisis

For the first time the Norwegian government had seven companies at the African Utility Week in Cape Town, to provide possible solutions to South Africa’s current electricity crisis.

Let's just hope the Norwegians can deal with the graft and incompetence.

Didn't the ANC/Eskom chase the French away?

It is still a completely unnecessary solution. We have all the talent and skill we need, right here locally. Just because they have the wrong skin colour they cannot do.

So instead of letting local skill do their job you would rather waste more money on overseas companies...

Makes no sense, support local if they have the right skin colour, otherwise just send money overseas to other countries.

Who has been stopping anyone local from doing the job for the last decade?

Don't do it Norway...

Never mind I see what you mean but, you're still wrong. Eskom doesn't have a skills problem, it has a management problem. Norway are decades ahead of most as far as energy solutions goes we can always learn new skills and technologies.

Voicy! What are you doinG?!

Norway pays my salary.
Now they can help supply my electricity too

Norway has serious white guilt. They love helping Starvin' Marvin and donating my tax money back to Africa...ironically while my town's roads are falling apart from potholes. At least that makes me kinda feel home.

Why not?

Norway introduces an amazing new means of producing totally sustainable power, South Africans ****s it up in a matter of days when all the copper was stolen.

The truth was revealed that Chickens were used to power generators and as such have all been eaten, "finger lickin good"

 

[bromster]

Any company with any kind of business sense would avoid investing in South Africa with the current political and economic outlook.

They were doing marketing at the AUW. They were not here to sign contracts with Eskom and guavamint. Competition and greater international investment is good.

Last time Norway helped out SA, Boesak pocketed the funds for himself.....

Norway is just perpetuating the notion that Africa needs help as they cannot do it on their own.

No,Norway wants to overcharge for its products by giving kickbacks to politicians who give them the deals.

Kapsch has been doing it already,no?
