Small hydropower is a proven, mature technology with a long track record, even in Africa. For example the gold mines at Pilgrim''s Rest in South Africa were powered by two 6kW hydro turbines as early as 1892, complemented by a 45kW turbine in 1894 to power the first electrical railway. In several African countries church missions
There are two main types of hydroponics in South Africa: active and passive. Active systems are systems that supply the water directly to the roots, or where the roots reside directly in the nutrient rich water. This is achieved by having a reservoir of nutrient rich water that is then pumped to the plants'' roots by use of a water pump.

The average capacity factor of analysed African hydropower plants is likely to decrease by approximately 3% between 2060‑99 compared to the baseline period 2010‑19. The projected accumulative loss in generation output due to climate change for the remainder of the 21st century is approximately 130 terawatt-hours (TWh); this is
Small scale hydropower generated at various water infrastructure and rivers in South Africa has the potential to contribute to the renewable energy goals set for the country. The challenge
Of the 87 stations assessed, 21 plants (4.6GW, 12% of Africa''s hydropower capacity) were deemed in urgent need of modernisation, all in Sub-Saharan Africa. Another 31 plants (10.1GW, 26% of capacity) will likely need investment in the next decade. To secure reliable, efficient, and safe electricity generation from the high need category, IHA
