The Energy Systems Research Group, University of Cape Town, invites you to the webinar event to launch of the Climate Transparency Report 2020: South Africa Country Profile on 25 November at 12pm.

In addition, they will be showcasing the modelling platform upgrades, developed in partnership with SA-TIED, that allows us to attempt to tackle and understand these challenges – SATIMGE
