Green & Beautiful - goal The region has many renewable energy options – solar, wind, current, geothermal. Its distance from the coal fields & power stations, together with the need to reduce carbon emissions, make us the natural choice to use & pioneer a palette of renewable options. This could embrace becoming a global hub for research into affordable low-carbon energy solutions. The region is renowned for its natural beauty. The challenge is to protect, even enhance this in the face of population & business growth. The Cape Winelands are an example of how business & beauty beneficially co-exist.
