  1. The Energy Integration in Southern Africa Jean-Pierre Favennec IFP Professor – Consultant Johannesburg – December 2, 2010

  2. Summary • Energy in the world • Energy in Africa • Energy in Southern Africa

  3. Energy in the World Recent changes : Reduction of CO2 emissions Limitations of oil production New gas situation Coal Renewables

  6. Energy in Africa

  7. World electricity generation 2006 • World total = 18 921 TWh North America 1658 3531 CIS 5134 1786 Europe 682 2904 Asia OECD Middle East 588 China 959 Africa 1679 South and central America Asia non OECD Source : AIE EL 101*1 – April 2009

  8. Energy consumption in Africa Mtoe Electricity (primary) Coal Natural gas Oil Source : BP Statistical Review AF004 – October 2009

  9. 7% 3% The energy divides • DividebetweenAfrica and the rest of the world (15% of world population for 3% of world energyconsumption) • DividebetweenNorthAfrica-South Africa and the rest of Africa • Dividebetweenurban and rural areas: Urban areas look likeenergy spots North and South Africa: two specific areas 41% 12% 37% Region energy consumption proportionEnergy barriers

  10. Hydroelectricity in Africa Potential

  11. Energy Integration in Southern Africa Existing situation Needs in electricity The Integrated Resource Plan What about renewables? Integration : benefits and existing pools

  12. Southern Africa’s power Industry and Interconnections • An existing electrical integration mostly between Mozambique and South Africa H H H W Wind Power T W T T T Thermal Power Plant T T T Hydro Power Plant H Remarque : 1 circle = 3 power plants at least except nuclear power plant for which 1 circle = 1 power plant N T Nuclear Power Plant Main power transmission line N Source : African Energy

  13. Southern African Power Pool • South Africa represents 81% of SAPP in 2010 and will remain at 77% of SAPP in 2025

  14. The Integrated Resource Plan : Context and Description • Obligation after National Energy Act of 2008 • Long term electricity capacity plan to develop a sustainable electricity investment strategy for generation capacity and transmission infrastructure for South Africa over the next 25 years. • Demand-side management (DSM) • Pricing • Capacity provided by all generators (Eskom and independant power producers) • Environment

  15. The Integrated Resource Plan : Hypothesis • GDP growth on average 4,6 % per year over the next 20 years • It requires from 30 439 MW to 52 724 MW of new capacity depending on scenarios for 454 357GWh produced in 2030. • It assumes at least 3420 MW of demand side management programmes

  16. 5 models studied to establish the balanced revised scenario • A base case which minimise directs costs • 3 emissions limits based scenarios • EM 1.0 : imposes an annual emission limit of 275 MT • EM 2.0 : imposes an emission limit of 275 MT of carbon dioxide by 2025 but allows emissions to go to higher levels prior to 2025 • EM 3.0 : imposes a tighter emission limit of 220MT of carbon dioxide from 2020 • A Carbon Tax based scenario (CT 0.0) : imposes carbon taxes escalated to 2010 Rands an contained in the LTMS documents • 2 others model were studied : a regional developement model and an enhanced DSM model Sources : DOE

  17. The Integrated Resource Plan

  18. The Integrated Resource Plan : Challenges • A huge amount of renewables capacity • Wind : 4 500 MW in the Balanced scenario up to 2019 • Solar : 400 MW • Wind + Solar : 7 200 MW between 2019 and 2030 • Questions raised : • Is it possible to build such capacities : resources, technical problems • Problem of cost and economic rentability? • Ability for quick construction and maintenance? • Problem of grid stability?

  19. The Integrated Resource Plan : Challenges (2) • Decentralised electricity not adressed • Importance of transmission lines

  20. Integration benefits • Benefits : foster the development of the economy. • Keys actions : • Develop infrastructures • Most important partners : • Mozambique. There is already an important hydro production (Caora Bassa) and new capacities will be built. Mozambique is also supplying natural gas to RSA (Sasol) • Zambia (hydro potential) • Zimbabwe •  Limited cooperation : • RDC. RSA is interested in electricity of Inga. But the Chinese presence (exchange of raw materials against investments) makes difficult this cooperation. • Angola • Key issue : transmission

  21. Euratom (1957) • Euratom (European Atomic Energy Community) • Success : • Legal framework, safety standard uniformisation • Progressive enlargement of the cooperation • Broad development on innovative technology • Decrease in energy dependance • Efficient information centralisation about nuclear stocks and flows, and investment • Fight against nuclear proliferation • Lacks : • Some legislative contents (about normalisation for example) • Decision process

  22. ECSC (1951) • European Coal and Steel Community • Success : • Long term vision and comon process • Peace, stability, prosperity, solidarity • Efficient response during crisis • Autonomous legal framework • Uniform social protection and labour law • Lacks : • Emergence of great enterprises • Difficulty for struggling on price non-accordance and for assuring transparancy • No equalization in salary

  23. Benefits of integration • In West Africa cost of kwh supposed to be reduced by 50 % if good interconnections between the different countries of WAPP (West African Power Pool)
