Energy Security in South America and Southern Africa: Synthesis Report

This briefing stems from a project that focused on electricity supply and the extent to which it's traded within Southern Africa and South America.Within this the current and projected regional energy production mixes were established and since concerns over climate change are finding their way into many aspects of economic growth and development the project also explored the role that the regional ‘anchor states' (South Africa and Brazil respectively) are likely to play in securing the future balance in light of climate change and related mitigation imperatives.
