South Africa

South Africa possesses one of the most developed infrastructure systems in Africa, including extensive transport networks, ports, energy assets and financial markets. However, maintenance backlogs, electricity supply constraints and logistics bottlenecks have weighed on growth in recent years. Reform of state-owned enterprises, expansion of renewable energy procurement and increased private participation in infrastructure are central to restoring efficiency, strengthening competitiveness and supporting long-term economic expansion.
