President Cyril Ramaphosa has appealed for assistance from developed countries to help African nations meet their environmental pledge to expand renewable energy.
Ramaphosa is in Brazil to lead South Africa's participation in the two-day Group of Twenty (G20) Leaders' Summit, which started in Rio de Janeiro yesterday.
The president launched the Road to Joburg campaign at the G20 summit as he prepares to take over the presidency from Brazil on 1 December.
