3 1. STATUS OF TE SAPP 1.1 Update on the SAPP IGMOU The Revised IGMOU was signed by Ministers responsible for energy in the SADC region on 23 February 2006 in Gaborone, Botswana. The Revised document took into account the following: Restructuring of the SADC Power sector reforms in SAPP member countries The SAPP-Zaire (DRC) Agreement Participation of other stakeholders, such as IPPs Membership of the SAPP All Member Countries have signed the Revised IGMOU. 3

4 1.2 Update on the SAPP IUMOU The following documents were circulated to SAPP Members in January 2007 for comments and approval: i. The Final Draft of the Revised IUMOU ii. iii. Membership Guidelines Membership Application Forms The SAPP EC had requested incorporating a clause on dispute resolution, and this has been done including a clause on confidentiality. In terms of SAPP governance, differentiation between CC Board and Management Committee has been made. The Revised IUMOU is now ready for signing. 4

5 1.3 SAPP-RERA MOU The SAPP-RERA MOU has been approved by both SAPP and RERA and both are ready to sign the document. SAPP and RERA have both recognized the benefits of working together to: Achieve their respective goals Ensure capacity building Ensure cooperation and harmonization in the region, and Keeping each other informed of their respective projects and actions. 5

6 1.4 ost Country Agreement On 13 March 2006, the Government of Zimbabwe and SAPP signed a ost Country Agreement for the hosting of the SAPP Coordination Centre in arare, Zimbabwe. The Agreement has given the SAPP a Diplomatic Status in Zimbabwe and has helped the SAPP to: To be fully recognized as a SADC Institution in Zimbabwe Achieve its stated aims, goals and objectives Reduce its operating costs and tax burden on member states, and Receive support and donations from cooperating partners without difficulties. The SAPP is grateful to the assistance given by the Government of Zimbabwe. 6

7 1.5 Revision of the 2001 Pool Plan The results of the SAPP 2001 Pool Plan were that: The estimated cost of the SAPP Integrated projects was USD 8 billion. The total sum of the individual country project was estimated at USD 11 billion. A potential saving of USD 3 billion could have been achieved if the projects were implemented in a coordinated manner. Unfortunately, due to the difficulty of getting funding, the implementation has not been achieved as previously planned. 7

8 1.5 SAPP Pool Plan - CONTD The current revision of the SAPP Pool Plan of 2001 is funded by a World Bank grant to the tune of US$1 Million. The revision is in line with the SAPP requirement of revising the plan every after 5 years. Work on the Pool Plan is expected to be completed in November The completed Pool Plan will provide input into the SADC Regional Infrastructure Development Master Plan. 8

9 SAPP Pool Plan Objectives To develop an Integrated Generation and Transmission Plan in order to take full advantage of the available power pooling opportunities. To ighlight the benefits that can be derived for members from a co-ordination of their individual expansion plans. To develop electricity supply systems providing least-cost to consumers and minimizing negative environmental impacts. To take into account energy security and requirements of member countries. 9

10 2. MARKET PRICE DETERMINATION 2.1 STEM Operations 2.2 Progression from STEM to Competitive Market 10

11 2.1 STEM Operations Supply and Demand 350, , ,000 Supply Demand Demand far much outstrips the supply. For 2006: Demand 1,705-GWh [MWh] 200, , ,000 50,000 - January March May July September November Supply 372-GWh Traded 217-GWh Data for 2005: Demand 3,857-GWh Supply 1,138-GWh Traded 291-GWh Month January-December 2006 Demand and supply reductions in

12 2.1.2 Actual Energy Prices 70,000 60,000 50,000 40,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 Energy Traded [M Wh] M onetary Value [x10 US$] Energy & Prices, 2006: Traded 217-GWh Prices USc/kWh Data for 2005: Traded 291-GWh Prices USc/kWh - January March May July Month September November Energy trading peaked from May-July 2006, corresponding to winter months. Trading during off peak Energy Traded & Monetary Value 12

13 2.2 STEM Progression to Competitive Market The STEM was introduced in April 2001 as a precursor to a full competitive market. The following members are current STEM Participants: BPC EDM Eskom CB NamPower SEB ZESA 13 In January 2004, the SAPP started the development of a competitive market with funding from Government of Norway and Sida.

14 Measures introduced to achieve reliability and security of supply: STEM contracts are all firm Non delivery penalties apply Security deposit required before Participants trade Shorter financial settlement periods, within 5 days Energy prices in the STEM are achieved by matching offers and bids using pay-as-bid method. The competitive market has been designed to use a uniform pricing method. The market is a day-ahead market (DAM). DAM Market trials started on 10 April 2007 and will be on for the next three months. 14 Market opening to be considered when governance issues are resolved with the SAPP.

15 3. TE SAPP TARIFF STUDY Following the Ad oc meeting held in Namibia in July 2004, it was resolved to: Implement cost reflective tariffs Adopt regulatory principles to enhance the tariffs The SAPP has initiated a Tariff Study and has appointed a Consultant. Key stakeholders such as RERA would be consulted 15 DBSA is funding the study which shall be completed in Aug 2007.

16 SAPP Tariff Study - CONTD The outcome of the Study will be to highlight: Cost reflectiveness of tariffs in Member countries Competitiveness regionally & internationally Implications of capacity expansion projects on tariffs Energy efficiency implications on tariffs Analyse and recommend best practices 16
