PRESENTED BY BISMARCK REWANE CEO, FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES COMPANY LIMITED Privatization and Development of the Nigerian Power Sector: 20 th February, 2014 Challenges & Prospects for the Chartered Accountant
2
Audience Analysis Members of the governing council and ICAN membesr Founded in 1965 with membership of 32000 Mission is to produce world-class chartered accountants To regulate and continuously enhance their ethical standards and technical competence
3
Energy Gap in Nigeria Average Expected Power Generation is 6200MW Demand is estimated at 10000MW Average power Output in Nigeria ≤ 3500MW Nigeria is underserved by 65% Energy Sector operated as a state monopoly until 2005 Sector has recently undergone reform Generation and distribution assets privatized To encourage competition and boost efficiency
4
Objectives of the Presentation After this presentation, Audience understanding of power sector dynamics will be enhanced Unfolding opportunities will be appreciated Role of Chartered Accountants in the sector will be better understood
5
Outline Overview of Power Sector The Chilean Model The Reforms Ownership Transfer Current State Constraints Desired Outcome Risks Accountants as Catalysts or Agents of change
6
Overview of Nigeria’s Power Sector
7
Energy Crisis in Nigeria 69 power generating units in existence by 1999 Only 19 operational, average daily output of 1750MW Newest generating unit built in 1990 Last transmission line built in 1987 Nigerian electricity demand about 10000mw in 2008 Output has never exceeded 4500mw Demand-Supply gap met through alternative power generation Just about 50.6% of population has access to electricity
8
Energy Crisis in Nigeria Electricity Supply demand Balance Sheet (March 1991) High energy costs undermine the industrial sector Constitute 30% of operating cost for manufacturers Estimated industry losses believed to be in excess of 50% Plants Capacities (MW) Demand Situation (MW) InstalledEffectiveMorning Peak Evening Peak Highest demand Average demand Demand 463317121500180019021855 Excesses -212--- Shortages 2921-88190143 Remarks Source: Energy issues in Nigeria, 1991

Demographics & Power consumption Nigerian per capita electricity consumption: 148.9kwh 3% of Brazil’s and 7.5% of South Africa’s World electricity consumption per capita: 3,044 kwh SSA electricity consumption per capita 535.7 kwh
10
Power holding back growth Industries crippled by high cost of alternative energy Cost in terms of lost GDP many times greater Current GDP growth rate is 6.87 Potential GDP growth rate 10.46% Cost by 2020 in terms of lost GDP would be $130bn per annum
11
Generation Capacity- Peer Comparison Generation capacity :15% that of south Africa, 29% that of Egypt Watts per capita: 40% that of Ghana
12
Effect of Power Outages Power outages are a major tax on Africa’s economies
13
Power Sector Privatization: The Chilean Experience Chile commenced restructuring of electricity in 1982 Vertical and horizontal unbundling of distribution, generating and transmission in 1981 Private participation was encouraged by establishing new investor-financed enterprises To purchase existing facilities or to construct new facilities Privatization was financed through: Public auction Stock exchange listing, and Sale of shares to the public in small quantities
14
Chile - Impact of Privatization During privatization process, GDP grew by 7% Competitive power generation market 11 generation companies in 1996 to 26 in 2000 Power generation doubled within 10years 30.75bn kwh in 1996 to 62.87bn kwh in 2006 Source: EIA
15
Improvement in Performance of 4 South American Electricity Distribution Companies from the time of Privatization until 1998
16
Nigeria’s Power Reform Story
17
The route to reform Change in legal and regulatory framework - The Electric Power Sector Reform (EPSR) Act was enacted in 2005 Change in shape of the industry NEPA transformed to an Initial Holding Company – The Power Holding Company (PHCN) A new Business unit with: 6 GenCos 11 DisCos 1 Transmission Company
18
Ownership Transfer - Unbundling the Monopoly
19
Aims & Objectives of Reform Improving efficiency and ensuring transparent management Encouraging and promoting private sector participation Eliminate government involvement in utility management Release government funds to finance core activities To ensure that Nigeria has an electricity supply industry that can meet the needs of its citizens in the 21st Century

22
The Multi Year Tariff Order - MYTO 2012 - the 15-year pricing plan Inappropriate pricing regime one of the biggest obstacles to private sector investment in the power sector The MYTO is based on some core values: Cost recoverability Efficient use of the network Incentives for improving performance Transparency For the consumers, MYTO should ensure that there is no price shock as a result of sudden increase Incorporates government subsidy
23
Current state Daily Peak Delivery – 3.352.90 Mw as at December 13, 2013 15 Distribution Licenses (both On and Off Grid) Electricity sources: Thermal – 76%, Hydropower - 24% Total licensed capacity (MW) 36 licensed on-grid IPPs13,828 21 licensed off-grid IPPs313 10 NIPP on-grid projects5,032 10 privatized gencos7,283
24
Constraints New Investors faced with: Debt instead of Equity Buyers grappling with debt repayments instead of channelling funds to capacity expansion Dollar Borrowings instead of Naira Risk of currency depreciation 50% hike in Gas price MYTO likely to be reviewed upward Skill and Experience lacking Purchasers inheriting an aged, undisciplined and unmotivated work force
25
Desired Outcome 2008 2,833MW 2009 6000MW 2009 10,000MW 2050 50,000MW
26
EXPECTATIONS – SHORT TO LONG TERM To meet the vision 20: 2020 target of 40, 000 MW Requires investment of at least US $3. 5bn per annum for the next 10 years To ensure that electricity supply is made more reliable, To effectively support the socio-economic development of the country To develop a transparent and effective regulatory framework for the power sector To promote competition to meet growing demand To encourage Nigerian electric power sector operating companies to become global leaders in the industry

Accountants as Catalyst for Change
30
Challenges - What the Accountant must know Understanding the power industry Value chain in power production and delivery Role of each stakeholder Amount of investments necessary What accounting technique should be adopted in valuation of power companies Cash-based vs. Accrual Adoption of modern techniques to replace obsolete ones Must meet IFRS standards
31
Opportunities Financial Advisory Services to new power companies Valuation of power assets How much investments should be made Where investments would be targeted Revenue projections and Forecasting How long it will take to recoup capital/ Break-even analysis Financial valuation in line with the MYTO Audit services Advice on tax issues
