AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Fuel Costs: Parliament’s appropriations committee has advanced a proposed R10bn fuel-price intervention, but relief is not guaranteed and the mechanism remains unclear. South Africa’s falling fuel production and growing reliance on imports add to the pressure. Industrialisation: In Johannesburg, former AfDB president Akinwumi Adesina urged African countries to process raw materials locally, build competitive industries and develop their own technologies. Clean Energy: A planned R220m Atlantis solar plant is projected to save Cape Town electricity users R400m. Agriculture: Farmers are preparing for the 2026–27 summer crop season as El Niño threatens hotter, drier conditions and raises concern about yields and food prices. Manufacturing: South Africa’s manufacturing output fell 4.3% year on year in August, an added challenge for an industry seeking stronger growth.
