3 SAPP Introduction A Power Pool with a strong and successful history SAPP was created in 1995 with the following Objectives: to cooperate and coordinate in the regional electricity planning and operation Facilitate trading in SADC Promote regional cooperation in power projects development (Generation and Transmission Infrastructure Development) Increase Access to Electricity in Rural Areas Ensure that the region attracts investment for large energy intensive electricity users (attractive tariff) SAPP Plays a central pivotal role in the region between all SADC Public Sector Utilities, SADC Energy Ministries, and the private sector 3

6 Introduction to the SAPP-PAU The SAPP-PAU is a division of SAPP: Accountable for the preparation and implementation of agreed priority projects in SAPP By utilising grant funding the PAU will: Conduct regional analytical work, Screen, select, prepare and monitor the implementation of regional priority projects, and Play an advisory role to SADC governments and utilities Initial seed capital from the World Bank 6

7 IDA Grant Components The seed funding from the World Bank is provided as a grant trough the International Development Agency ( IDA ). It has three components: 1. Component A: Setting up the PAU under the SAPP which would fund the mobilization of a team (including supporting specialist) 2. Component B: Project Preparation Funds The funds in this Component would be managed by the PAU. Key focus will be on projects environmental and social performance. 3. Component C: Analytical support to SAPP This component would support analytical work to update critical nonproject specific information used by SAPP to support project preparation, including revision of the SAPP Pool Plan. 7

23 CONCLUSION The SAPP is the oldest power pool in Africa and was established in The SAPP is the most interconnected of all the power pools in Africa and is regarded as the most advanced at the moment. Energy trading via bilateral contracts started in the 1960 s and has since expanded to include the DAM and IDM and is planning to include other markets in the future. The expansion of generation and transmission infrastructure is the biggest challenge facing the SAPP. 23
