Newly released research by international banking group HSBC outlines a scenario for reducing transport emissions by 76% by 2040 through combining technology and regulation in a way that results in electricity, hydrogen and biofuels replacing oil as the primary fuel feedstock across transport modes. The report labels transport as the 'second frontier' for decarbonisation in light of progress being made in reducing emissions from electricity production and given that reducing emissions in the power sector alone will be insufficient to limit global warming in 2100 to below 2⁰C above preindustrial levels. view more

Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged at next month's meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee of the South African Reserve Bank, according to Sanisha Packirisamy, an economist at Momentum Investments. The MPC will start its three-day meeting on May 21. Reserve Bank governor Lesetja Kganyago is expected to make the repo rate announcement on the afternoon of May 23. Packirisamy said the positive downward trajectory in inflation expectations, alongside weaker-than-expected growth, has likely lowered the pressure on the central bank to maintain a tightening bias. At the same time, the hurdle to interest rate cuts remains high, Packirisamy said. view more

South African Airways (SAA) announced on Wednesday that, because of the closing of the main runway of Malawi's Chileka International Airport in Blantyre, also with effect from Wednesday (April 24), and until July 24 this year, the national flag carrier would not be able to operate services to Blantyre until the main runway was reopened. However, SAA also announced contingency plans to allow people to continue to fly between Johannesburg and Blantyre. While its main runway has been closed, Chileka's secondary runway remains open. However, even the smallest of SAA's planes is too big to use the secondary runway. Instead, SA Express, which operates smaller aircraft, will take over SAA's services to Blantyre. view more
