Abaphathi be-Biden bandisa ikhredithi yentela yenhlangano efuna ukugqugquzela ukukhiqizwa kwasekhaya kwezingxenye zamandla elanga nomoya, kanye namabhethri.
UMnyango Wezezimali ukhiphe isiqondiso sokugcina ngoLwesine sokuthi kuzosetshenziswa kanjani isikweletu sokukhiqiza esivuselelekayo esivela kuntela yesimo sezulu yeDemocrats kanye nomthetho wokunakekelwa kwezempilo.
Uma kuqhathaniswa nesiqondiso esihlongozwayo esikhishwe ngasekupheleni konyaka odlule, isiqondiso sokugcina senza isikweletu sibe nenzuzo enkulu embonini – lezo izikhulu ezithe zingasiza ekukhuliseni kokubili ukukhiqizwa kwezwe kanye nezimayini zasekhaya.
Isikweletu sentela sisebenza ekukhiqizeni izinhlobonhlobo zezingxenye ezihlanganisa ukwenziwa kwe-polysilicon yezinga lelanga, amaseli ebhethri kanye nokucwengwa kwamaminerali abalulekile.
IPhini likaNobhala woMgcinimafa u-Wally Adeyemo utshele izintatheli ngoLwesithathu ukuthi ngaphansi kokuqondisa okwandisiwe, izinkampani zizokwazi ukuthola isikweletu ngezindleko zezinto ezizisebenzisayo ukwenza lezi zingxenye. Bazokwazi futhi ukuthola isikweletu ngezindleko zokumba.
“Abaphathi be-Biden Harris bayaqonda ukuthi kubaluleke kangakanani ukukhiqiza amaminerali abalulekile ogwini ekuthuthukiseni amaketanga aphephile, ahlanzekile okunikezwa kwamandla, futhi imithetho yanamuhla imele igxathu elikhulu kulowo mzamo,” kusho u-Adeyemo.
Ngaphansi kwe- isiqondiso esihlongozwe ngaphambilini izinkampani azikwazanga ukuthola isikweletu “ngokuthenga nje izinto ezingavuthiwe.”
Ngenxa yalolu shintsho, isikhulu sezokuphatha sitshele abezindaba, balindele izindleko eziphansi kubakhiqizi kanye nesikhuthazo esikhulu sokumba izimayini zasekhaya.
Lesi simemezelo siza ezinsukwini ngemuva kokuthi abaphathi bememezele ukutholwa kwenani elikhulu le-lithium etholakala e-Arkansas.
