This contributes to programme failures in the long run. Research is needed to inform and assist government in making the right decisions around renewable energies. A renewable energy project in Mozambique for instance, failed due to lack of spare parts which could not be manufactured locally; market demand was low, making the cost of production too high; the technologies had to be imported, rendering them unaffordable. This project looks at Integrated planning as a necessity in the context of Botswana, South Africa, Lesotho and Mozambique.enCLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATIONSOUTHERN AFRICAWATER-ENERGY NEXUSEMISSIONSWATER MANAGEMENTWATER SUPPLYConsultant Report
