GameChange Solar, a global leader in solar trackers and fixed-tilt racking systems, has achieved a Level 4 Certification under South Africa’s Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) framework. The certification highlights the company’s commitment to inclusive economic participation and sustainable development in the region.

“Achieving Level 4 status is not just a compliance milestone; it reflects our long-term commitment to South Africa’s economic transformation,” said Sibulele Dlova, General Manager – Sub-Saharan Africa at GameChange Solar. “We are proud of the role we’ve played in supporting supplier development, strengthening local manufacturing, and expanding access to skills and opportunities where they’re needed most.”

GameChange Solar’s B-BBEE certification is based on its performance across the framework’s five key impact areas: ownership, management control, skills development, enterprise and supplier development, and socio-economic development.

Key Contributions:

• Skills Development: The company has supported several learnership programs, technical bursaries, and entrepreneurship training initiatives, particularly targeting youth and persons with disabilities.
• Enterprise & Supplier Development: GameChange Solar has collaborated with Small, Medium, and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs) across its value chain, reaching up to 90% local content in its product offerings.
• Inclusive Procurement: The company has prioritized procurement from Black-owned, Black female-owned, and other Black-designated group businesses.
• Youth Empowerment: Through active participation in the Youth Employment Service (YES) Program, the firm has offered work experience and specialized training to equip young South Africans with skills in the renewable energy sector.

As the company expands its footprint across Sub-Saharan Africa, GameChange Solar reaffirmed its dedication to supporting clean energy targets while fostering inclusive growth and local empowerment.
