• The political economy of technological capabilities and global production networks in South Africa’s wind and solar photovoltaic (PV) industries (2017, unknown): “Signi fi cantly, the country does not have a well-established industry for the manufacture of renewable energy equipment (Ahlfeldt, 2013: xiv; Walwyn & Brent, 2015), or indeed manufacturing more generally (Bhorat et al., 2014).”
• Current status and future prospects of renewable energy in Nigeria (2015, background): “It requires the national electricity utility Eskom, to purchase renewable energy from qualifying generators at predetermined prices [111–113].”
• Financial de-risking to unlock Africa's renewable energy potential (2019, background): “Walwyn and Brent [31] and by IRENA [32], because empirical data was used for essentially all countries in Africa, while these two publications only consider countries with low perceived risks and strong support mechanisms.”
