The energy divides Divide between Africa and the rest of the world (15% of world population for 3% of world energy consumption) Divide between North Africa-South Africa and the rest of Africa Divide between urban and rural areas: Urban areas look like energy spots 3% 7% Region energy consumption proportion Energy barriers North and South Africa: two specific areas

Hydroelectricity in Africa Potential

Energy Integration in Southern Africa Existing situation Needs in electricity The Integrated Resource Plan What about renewables? Integration : benefits and existing pools
15
Source : African Energy Southern Africa’s power Industry and Interconnections An existing electrical integration mostly between Mozambique and South Africa H H T T T W H T T T T N N Nuclear Power Plant W Wind Power T Thermal Power Plant H Hydro Power Plant Main power transmission line Remarque : 1 circle = 3 power plants at least except nuclear power plant for which 1 circle = 1 power plant
16
Southern African Power Pool South Africa represents 81% of SAPP in 2010 and will remain at 77% of SAPP in 2025
17
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
18
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
19
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

21
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?
22
The Integrated Resource Plan : Challenges (2) Decentralised electricity not adressed Importance of transmission lines
23
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
24
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
25
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
26
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)
