Mfanafuthi M. — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 14:40:00 GMT

In recent years, South Africans have become more aware of the hidden chemicals in everyday products. From cosmetics and hair products to pesticides and household items, researchers and health organizations are raising concerns about substances that may increase the risk of cancer and other serious illnesses.

South Africa's energy shift

Tourism is often imagined as a global industry—jet-setting travelers, international resorts, and iconic landmarks. Yet beneath this global picture lies a powerful, often overlooked force: hyperlocal tourism. This form of tourism focuses on neighborhood-level experiences, community-driven initiatives, and authentic cultural exchanges. It is not about mass arrivals but about meaningful connections, where visitors engage directly with local people, traditions, and businesses.

Hyperlocal tourism ecosystems are built on value chains that extend far beyond ho

How Township Tourism Will Drive Economic Growth

Floyd B. — Fri, 05 Dec 2025 11:45:00 GMT

Townships are often seen as places of struggle, yet they are also vibrant hubs of culture, creativity, and entrepreneurship. With nearly a third of South Africa’s population living in townships, these communities represent a R900 billion market that mirrors the formal economy while adapting to local realities. By positioning townships as destinations for authentic tourism, South Africa can diversify its tourism offerings, uplift marginalized communities, and drive sustainable economic growth.

Eskom’s New Rooftop Solar Rules: A Step Forward

Geronimo L. — Tue, 04 Nov 2025 10:30:00 GMT

A brighter horizon for some homeowners

Eskom’s latest update to rooftop solar connection rules has been hailed as a breakthrough for South Africans eager to escape rising electricity prices and recurring load-shedding.

The power utility has scrapped the requirement for a professional engineer’s sign-off on many small-scale solar systems, allowing Installation Electricians (IE) or Master Installation Electricians (MIE) registered with the Department of Labour to approve installations for Eskom-direct customers.

The change trims red tape and cuts thousands of rands in compliance costs, making legal grid-tied solar installations far easier for households served directly by Eskom.

It also aligns with Eskom’s stated goal of accelerating safe, legal embedded generation as part of the national drive toward energy resilience and decentralisation.

“We want to make it as simple, safe, and cost-effective as possible for customers to

The Scented Journey Begins: The Story Behind Immortal Aroma

Agcobile M. — Tue, 15 Jul 2025 13:00:00 GMT

Have you ever walked into a space and been instantly captivated by the atmosphere - not because of what you saw, but because of what you smelled?

That’s exactly how Immortal Aroma was born.

🌅 It Started With a Simple Morning

Waking up early to pray with my husband in our cozy open-plan apartment should have been a peaceful experience. But one small thing kept interrupting that moment: leftover food smells from the night before.

One day, I decided to buy a home diffuser - not expecting much, just hoping to freshen the air a bit. But what happened next changed everything.

The moment that soft, calming scent filled the room, I felt peaceful and inspired. It didn’t just freshen the air - it shifted the atmosphere.

That’s when the vision for Immortal Aroma was born:
A brand created not just to sell fragrance, but to

Energy and Digital Technologies: Can Industries Operate Without Energy Going Forward?

Geronimo L. — Tue, 29 Apr 2025 13:50:00 GMT

In every modern industry, energy is not just a utility—it is the core enabler of operations, automation, data processing, and service delivery. As industries grow more digitized, the dependence on reliable, scalable, and clean energy increases. This article examines the real-world relationship between energy and digital technologies, and provides a data-driven answer to the question: Can industries live without energy in the future?

1. Digital Technologies Are Energy Technologies

From AI systems and cloud infrastructure to robotics and blockchain, digital technologies function through continuous electrical power. Even low-power devices—like IoT sensors—rely on batteries, grid connections, or ambient energy harvesting.

Case Example: Amazon Web Services (AWS)

AWS data centers, which support major parts of the internet and global commerce, consume approximately 20 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity annually—more than some small countries. Wi

Energy and Future Trends:Powering a Sustainable Tomorrow

Geronimo L. — Tue, 26 Nov 2024 13:20:00 GMT

The energy sector is undergoing a historic transformation driven by the need to combat climate change, meet growing global energy demands, and ensure equitable access to resources. As we look ahead, several key trends are shaping the future of energy, from the rise of renewables and energy storage innovations to the deployment of advanced digital technologies. Let’s delve into these trends and explore what they mean for the energy landscape.

The Global Push For Energy Innovation

Geronimo L. — Fri, 25 Oct 2024 09:40:00 GMT

The global energy landscape, as outlined in the Energy Institute's 2024 report, is undergoing a major transformation, driven by the urgency of addressing climate change and ensuring energy security. The shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources is accelerating, but storage technologies like TES are vital for making this transition successful.

Thermal Energy Storage (TES): A Crucial Innovation for Renewable Integration

Admin (JS) — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 13:45:00 GMT

One of the key technologies identified by the World Economic Forum in the future of energy systems is Thermal Energy Storage (TES). TES allows for the storage of heat energy, which can be used later to generate electricity or provide heating and cooling. This is particularly important for addressing the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. By storing excess energy generated during peak production times TES systems can release energy when demand is higher or when renewable energy production is low

For South Africa, where solar energy potential is vast, TES can play a pivotal role in stabilizing the grid and ensuring a reliable supply of energy during periods when the sun isn’t shining. It also aligns with the country's need to reduce reliance on coal while addressing the intermittency challenge associated with renewable energy.

The Future of Energy: Global Trends, South Africa’s Challenges, and the Role of Thermal Energy Storage

Geronimo L. — Mon, 30 Sep 2024 11:20:00 GMT

As the world grapples with the complex and ever-evolving challenges of energy security, climate change, and sustainable development, one of the most important resources for understanding our current trajectory is the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy 2024, with additional insights provided by Our World in Data. This resource offers a comprehensive analysis of global energy consumption, production, and technological trends, shedding light on the pressing need for innovation and transition to more sustainable energy systems.

In the context of South Africa, these global trends present both challenges and opportunities. South Africa is heavily reliant on coal for electricity generation, making the transition to a greener energy system crucial for reducing its carbon footprint. But transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and innovative tec
