Welcome to #PowerTracker, a tool that tracks and maps renewable energy projects and coal-fired power stations set to be decommissioned across Southern Africa. #PowerTracker is a project of Oxpeckers Investigative Environmental Journalism, and serves as a resource for researchers, journalists and policy-makers.
When you land on the map, you will see an overview of all the projects we already have data on.
You can filter the map based on different categories of data using the drop-down menu at the top left.
Search for specific projects, companies or types of renewable energy resources using the search bar in the top left.
Track updates on projects by subscribing to alerts on the left.
