The Northern Cape Government

The Northern Cape is emerging as South Africa's renewable energy hub, with some of the highest solar irradiance levels in the world. It is home to extraordinary natural attractions, including the Augrabies Falls, the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park and the Richtersveld — a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The province's wide open skies have also made it a global destination for astronomy, hosting the Square Kilometre Array telescope project.
