Introduction

Meeting the growing energy demand overthe long term and delivering cost-effective power supply solutions, in

harmony with the global and local climaterequirements would require secure, reliable,affordable, clean and sufficient energy supplies;and among them nuclear power (NP) is set as avaluable option.

Although NP is not an easy alternative energysource to develop and implement; manyuncertainties and hurdles are surrounding therelated industry. And for Africa to adopt NP, manycritical challenges should be addressed (political,technical, managerial, financing, humanresources, etc.). Thenceforth, the right questionsto answer in this article are:• What should be the place of Africa in the

global nuclear scene?• Is NP a compelling option for Africa’s

sustainable energy supply?• What are the obstacles and barriers to

roll out NP in Africa?• What are the key factors most responsive

to the needs of African countries to adopt NP?• What could be the right time-frame for

NP deployment in Africa?

1. Why Nuclear Power?

Until recently (i.e. before the Japanesenuclear crisis), NP had generatedconsiderable enthusiasm worldwide as acost-effective, reliable and climate friendlypower supply option, with the followingadvantages and intrinsic qualities:• Suitable for base-load power generation,

aiming at contributing to meeting countries’ growing electricity demand,while “decarbonizing” electricity production;

• Low carbon technology, suitable for GHG emissions reduction and allowing most developed and emerging economies to meet their national targets for CO2

emissions reduction;• Affordable, with low production cost per

kWh and offering cheap electricity prices toconsumers and industries;

• Stable fuel source, with low price volatility/ fluctuation;

• Capable of contributing significantly to ensuring a secure energy supply, with an increased energy diversity;

• Contributing significantly to reduce countries’ dependence on fossil fuels;

• High and proven reliability, high perform-ance record and high capacity factors;

Practical Power

0:05:00

Demystifying the complexities of SouthAfrica’s renewable energy policy in acontext of constantly moving goal

posts is an enormous challenge. Numerouspolicy uncertainties and delays still remainfor independent power producers (IPPs)waiting to construct and connect theirrenewable energy projects to the country’selectric grid. Despite intense interest fromIPPs and national and internationalinvestors over the past few years, not onerenewable energy power purchaseagreement (PPA) had been licensed at thetime of writing. Though greater clarity andhope has been provided by the imminentapproval of the country’s long-awaitedIntegrated Resource Plan (IRP 2010), whichcould result in 42 per cent of newgeneration capacity coming from renewableenergy up to 2035, increased uncertaintyhas now been created by the NationalEnergy Regulator’s (NERSA) RenewableEnergy Feed-in Tariff (REFIT) consultationpaper of March 2011 which proposes toreduce tariffs to replace those approved byNERSA in 2009 for REFIT phase 1 and 2.

In 2010 alone South Africa’s energypolicy arena witnessed a bewildering seriesof twists and turns, preceded in December2009 by President Jacob Zuma’scommitment as part of the CopenhagenAccords that the country would reduce itscarbon dioxide emissions by 34 per centbelow business as usual by 2020 and 42per cent by 2025. On 31 December 2009the Department of Energy (DoE) publishedits first Integrated Resource Plan (IRP1) forthe next three years- a mere three pages. InFebruary’s State of the Nation’s AddressPresident Zuma announced that anindependent system operator separate toEskom Holdings would be established. InFebruary and March 2010, NERSA soughtpublic comments on REFIT selection criteriafor which the final version, one year on, isstill pending. On 24 February 2010 NERSAannounced a price increase in electricity ofapproximately 25 per cent per year for thenext three years starting on 1 April 2010,swiftly followed by public outcry overpreferential tariff deals for energy intensiveusers that had been agreed before the end

of apartheid. Amidst great national andinternational controversy, the World Bank’sboard then approved a $3 billion loan forthe Medupi coal-fired power plant,alongside $260 million for Eskom’s SereWind Farm and Upington Solar Power Plant.The first draft of the long-awaited secondIntegrated Resource Plan (IRP 2010), whichis to shape the country’s energy mix for thenext 20 years, was released for publiccomment in May 2010 with public hearingstaking place in Pretoria in June. A seconddraft was released in October followed byanother set of hearings at the end of theyear. In September the DoE announced thatit was starting its procurement process forREFIT and released a ‘request forinformation’ for potential private developersof renewable energy projects intending toapply.1 Revised Electricity Regulations onNew Generation Capacity were released bythe DoE on 30 November 2010, makingsignificant changes to the previous version,approved a mere thirteen months before.The status of the country’s IntegratedEnergy Plan which is required annually bythe National Energy Act of 2008 and ofwhich the IRP is meant to be a subsetremains unclear. Meanwhile, the GreenPaper on the National Climate ChangeResponse was gazetted for public commenton 25 November 2010 by the Departmentof Environmental Affairs, followed by adiscussion document released for commentby Treasury on the introduction of a nationalcarbon tax.

South Africa’s director-general forelectricity, nuclear and clean energy OmpiAphane recently admitted that delays toREFIT were likely to result in South Africafailing to meet its renewable energy whitepaper target of 10 000 GWh of renewableenergy consumption by 2013.2 Yet credibleinterest in South Africa’s renewable energyindustry is vast, has the potential to form amajor part of national energy developmentand make significant contributions to keynational priorities on carbon emissionsreduction, job creation, energy access, ruraldevelopment, inward investment andregional energy development.

The Power of Climate

Executive summary

The Government of Kenya and the WorldBank Group’s infoDev unit are workingtogether to pioneer a new model to help

transform energy and climate challenges intomarket opportunities leading to economicdevelopment and job creation. By supportingnew and existing skills sets – and especiallyby tapping countries’ entrepreneurial spirit –Kenya and other African countries can take amore pro-active and profitable approach toaddressing their own local challenges.

The Government of Kenya and infoDevhave designed and are now implementing theworld’s first Climate Innovation Center (CIC),to be operational in the second half of 2011.The CIC will support local capacity – targetingthe private sector – to develop profitable,innovative solutions to domestic clean energyand climate challenges through early stagefinancing, business advisory services,technology information, office and technicalfacilities, government policy advisory, small-scale grants, business-to-business brokeringand other services to promising local firms. Itwill be part of the larger Greening KenyaInitiative coordinated by the Office of thePrime Minister (OPM).

Innovative technologies and businessmodels are needed to solve the energy andclimate challenges of Africa where uniquecircumstances - including severe energyaccess problems, rich renewable energyendowments and uneven fossil fueldistribution – call for novel approaches. Localprivate sector, especially smaller companies,have unique skills and information and mustplay a key role to originate, develop anddeploy solutions addressing local conditions.

The Kenyan CIC will be first among severalof CICs in selected countries, with the goal ofmaking a global network. In Africa,development of CICs is now being pursued inEthiopia, South Africa, Rwanda and Morocco.Each CIC will follow a basic template thentailored to local needs. The global networkwill link the national CICs to allow forsynergistic innovation, shared experiencesand technologies, international business-to-business linkages, common knowledgeplatforms and global financing opportunities.

Jonathan Coony is theCoordinator for the ClimateTechnology Program at infoDev inthe World Bank Group. Previously,Jonathan was a Sr. EnergySpecialist at the World Bank wherehe led efforts to formulate strategyto accelerate energy technologiesfor partner countries; supportedseveral Investment Plans for theClean Technology Fund (CTF); andwas team leader of the ChinaTechnology Needs Assessment(TNA).

Fueling Development

Biofuels divide opinion like few othertopics. A search on Google for “biofu-els and food crisis” results in over a

million pages. Many cite biofuel as thedemon, driving up food prices and takingup land and crops that could otherwisehave fed people at a time when a billionpeople go to bed hungry every day. Othersemphasise their potential as an energyoption that reduce greenhouse gas (GHG)emissions and therefore mitigate climatechange, by promoting the transition towarda low carbon economy. Almost as manypromote biofuel as a driver of developmentand an opportunity to reduce rural poverty– which in turn are drivers of improvedfood security.

Analyses of the causes of the 2007–08food price crisis identify biofuel productionas one of the culprits, but also recognise aplethora of other drivers, including a“perfect storm” of shifting consumptionpatterns, rising oil prices pushing up inputssuch as fertilizer, increased intensity andfrequency of extreme weather events andchanged climatic conditions, andspeculation on commodity markets (Oxfam2008). Much of the impact of biofuels onfood prices derives from the adoption ofpolices in the European Union and theUnited States that suddenly increaseddemand for biofuel (Ewing and Msangi2009) using food crops as feedstock.However, it is useful to ask: should thatblame rest on the product or the policiesthat were pursued in developing it?

Some 2 billion people around the worlddo not have access to modern energysupplies such as electricity and liquid fuels.In sub-Saharan Africa more than half abillion people do not have electricity intheir homes. They have to rely instead ontraditional biomass fuels – wood, charcoaland dung and the like. But using thesefuels is environmentally unsustainable andbad for human health. It has beenestimated that more than 1.5 milliondeaths each year in developing countries –mostly women and children – can belinked to the effects of cooking andheating homes with these “dirty” fuels.

Dr. Rodney Cooke has beenDirector of the Policy and TechnicalAdvisory Division of theInternational Fund for AgriculturalDevelopment (IFAD) since 2000.This Division’s role is to enhancethe quality of IFAD’s programmeand to ensure learning, networkingand knowledge sharing associatedwith the organization’sdevelopment activities.

Prior to joining IFAD Dr Cookewas Director of the EU-ACPTechnical Centre for Agriculturaland Rural Cooperation (CTA), TheNetherlands, from 1995 to 2000.He also previously worked in theUK Department for InternationalDevelopment, his last post beingDeputy Director of the NaturalResources Institute in charge of theResource Assessment and FarmingSystems Programme.

Financing Power

Public-Private Partnerships -recognizing the need for“shared opportunity and

shared risk”

The amount of project financingrequired to extend the reach ofinfrastructure services to all citizens

stretches beyond the budgetary means ofmost developing governments. OfficialDevelopment Assistance (ODA) funding,including World Bank Group commitmentsfor infrastructure, is expected to decline inreal terms over the next few years. Theprivate sector will need to play a moreprominent role in supporting solutions toinfrastructure deficits, and in most casesmay be even better positioned to providethe technology and skills that driveoperational efficiency. Yet, governmentswill need to stay engaged, as many of therisks associated with long-term investmentsare beyond the ability of the private sectorto manage. Leveraging public fundsthrough PPP investments will become morenecessity than nicety.

The world of PPPs hasexperienced dramatic shifts

Between 1990 and 2009, investmentcommitments to successful PPP projectsaveraged 1.2 percent of GDP in developingcountries—many times short of the needs.The geographic scope of private investmentin infrastructure has been relatively narrow,with almost 50 percent concentrated inMexico and the BRICs, and little progress inlow-income countries. Likewise, the sectoralscope of PPP projects has been limited, withalmost 50 percent in the telecommunicationssector. Overall private participation ininfrastructure (PPI) volumes have remainedrelatively steady in the face of the globalfinancial crisis, although this masks a flightto quality that appears to be hurting poorercountries most. This has placed greateremphasis on risk mitigation instruments. Incontrast, local markets have proven morerobust and liquid than the global financialmarkets, creating new opportunities tomobilize local currency financing for PPPs.

Mr. Gupta specializes in publicand private financing for powerand oil and gas projects. He hasbeen involved in numerous privateproject finance transaction thathave been supported by the BankGroup through both loans andguarantees. Most recently, he hasled the World Bank’s US$3.75billion loan to Eskom of SouthAfrica, structured risk mitigationinstruments for the $1.5 BillionNam Theun II Hydropower Projectin Laos. Since joining the WorldBank in 1996, Mr. Gupta has alsoclosed many key capital marketguarantee transactions notably inThailand, Colombia and Argentina.
