Hydrogen and hydrogen-based fuels could help facilitate the decarbonisation of a range of sectors where the pathway for achieving meaningful emission reductions is currently uncertain or difficult, a new global study argues. Released by the International Energy Agency (IEA) at a meeting of G20 energy and environment ministers in Karuizawa, Japan, the report says that hydrogen and hydrogen-based fuels could help facilitate emission reductions in sectors such as long-haul transportation, aviation, shipping and buildings, as well as in chemicals and steel manufacturing. view more

The South African Reserve Bank's forecasting model suggests there might be room for interest-rate cuts in the next year or two, given how weak the economy is, Governor Lesetja Kganyago said. While the central bank can play a role to help economic growth, decisions should be supported by other policies and structural reforms, Kganyago said in a copy of a speech posted on the Reserve Bank's website Thursday. view more

The revival of South Africa's flagging manufacturing sector is core to President Cyril Ramaphosa's broader economic recovery plan. The importance attributed to manufacturing can be seen in the President's decision to appoint the experienced Ebrahim Patel to lead the newly restructured Trade and Industry portfolio, which re-consolidates the Department of Trade and Industry with the Economic Development Department. There is also a growing recognition within government that, despite having the most diversified and industrialised economy in sub-Saharan Africa, South Africa's manufacturing performance is lacking vibrancy, even when compared with some of its African peers. view more

South African chemicals and fertiliser maker Omnia Holdings said on Friday it expected to report a full-year loss as drought, a volatile currency, changes in the mining industry and difficult global trading conditions weighed on earnings. The firm said the headline loss per share, the main profit measure used in South Africa, was expected to fall to between 139 cents and 59 cents for the year ended 31 March 2019 compared with headline earnings per share of 991 cents a year earlier. view more

South Africa's industrial, transport, energy, trade and fiscal policies remain heavily geared towards the private automobile and, more specifically, ones powered by the internal combustion engine (ICE). The Automotive Production and Development Programme, which incentivises the assembly of ICEs locally, remains the centrepiece of government's industrial policy. The country's transport strategy is equally supportive of the nation's 12-million ICE fleet. Fiscally, meanwhile, fuel taxes remain an important revenue stream (over R60-billion in 2017/18) and make up more than 40% of the final pump price. view more

The National Association of Automotive Manufacturers of South Africa (Naamsa) wants the quickest possible resolution to the looming wage negotiations between vehicle manufacturers and the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (Numsa), says  Naamsa executive director and CEO Mike Mabasa.

South African State-owned regional airline SA Express (SAX) affirmed on Friday that it was making substantial progress in its turnaround programme. It has also been taking action against employees found to have been engaged in wrongdoing. All those employees who have been charged with offences, and found to be guilty, have been fired from the airline. In those cases in which the offences involve alleged violations of the law, the airline has opened criminal cases. It will use legal means to recoup any losses that were the result of these various offences. SAX also gave the assurance that the airline was not facing imminent liquidation because of a court action being brought against it by a service provider. It described such claims as "false rumours". view more

Workers unions at the South African Airways said on Friday the State-owned airline has requested one week to deal with their demands of reinstating Vuyani Jarana as group chief executive and a complete overhaul of the board.

Retreating oil prices have painted a rosier picture for South African fuel users than has been the case for much of 2019.  This is according to the Automobile Association which was commenting on unaudited mid-month fuel price data released by the Central Energy Fund.
