Reported about 5 hours ago

The UK has announced that the $9.3 billion climate deal with South Africa to transition to cleaner energy will continue despite the US withdrawing its support. UK climate envoy Rachel Kyte emphasized that other international partners remain committed to the initiative, which aims to reduce South Africa's reliance on coal, the main source of its electricity. The project has faced challenges, including slow financing progress and ongoing power outages within South Africa, but stakeholders remain dedicated to achieving a just energy transition.
