South Africa has been told that the pace of its energy transition is too slow by a key funder, Germany, Environment Minister, Dion George, said.

Germany is one of the partners in the so-called Just Energy Transition Partnership, a $9.3-billion climate finance pact between South Africa and some of the world’s richest nations.

George, who was speaking Friday at a meeting of South Africa’s Presidential Climate Commission in Johannesburg, said he was cognizant that the government’s efforts to reduce its reliance on coal need to be sped up.

A delegation of German officials including international climate envoy Jennifer Morgan, were in South Africa last week.
