South Africa: Taxi Recapitalisation Programme

The government is offering to pay taxi drivers to scrap their old, unsafe, polluting vehicles in an attempt to clean up and regulate the taxi fleet.  If drivers fail to turn in their vehicles during the window of opportunity, within which they would receive a scrapping allowance of R50 000,00, their vehicles will be impounded.  The renewal of the taxi system and its management will then be taken over by the municipalities.  The plan for this process is being finalized.

South Africa: Draft Biofuels Industry Strategy

The Draft Strategy proposes: a 4,5% biofuels industry development in South Africa and this will achieve 75% of the country’s renewable energy target - the strategy is based on the national blending specifications of 8% for ethanol (E8) and 2 % for Biodiesel (B2); a mandatory blending of biofuels with petroleum based fuels, by fuel producers and refiners, to allow for market development; that the existing fuel levy exemption for Biodiesel be extended to Bioethanol, and this be based on the energy content.
