spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/8391 Domestic energy transition in South Africa in the context of rapid urbanization Viljoen, R P Eberhard, Anton Applied Science Bibliography: leaves 139-146. This dissertation deals with the energy transition process which is de-fined herein as the process whereby energy consumption patterns o-f fuels used by a population change over time. The focus is on the domestic sector only and specific attention is paid to the black population o-f South Africa which is urbanizing rapidly. The existing data on -fourteen Sub-Saharan African countries are analysed and indications that the energy transition process is occurring are found. The process is influenced by both the level o-f urbanization and economic development but the rates o-f growth of these indicators do not appear to be influential. 2014-10-11T12:16:34Z 2014-10-11T12:16:34Z 1989 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8391 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
