The energy transition being experienced globally and now in South Africa introduces new challenges and opportunities for municipalities, with requisite changes in business models and tariffs. The creation of municipal energy master plans (MEMPs) is a critical foundation to determine what type of energy to procure when to procure and boundary conditions for procurement. Such municipal energy master plans form the business case for the municipal role in the sustainable energy transition, leveraging municipal competencies and integrating availability of spatially dependent local resources.
