Building Trust for Transition: DBSA's Impact on Local Community Trusts in South Africa's Renewable Energy Sector
This case study examines the role of the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA) in financing and overseeing Local Community Trusts (LCTs) within South Africa's Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP). It analyzes the structural and governance challenges that often lead to the failure of LCTs, contrasts these with successful examples like the Sibona, Letsatsi, and Amandla trusts, and provides a comprehensive set of best practices and recommendations for development finance institutions (DFIs) and other stakeholders to ensure equitable benefit-sharing in the energy transition.
