  • African Power Pools Regional Energy, National Power
    ecdpm’s Making policies work DISCUSSION PAPER No. 244 African power pools regional energy, national power Political Economy Dynamics of Regional Organisations in africa PEDRO By Alfonso Medinilla, Bruce Byiers and Karim Karaki February 2019 Summary Despite the continent’s natural resource endowment of renewable and non-renewable energy sources, Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) suffers from huge deficits in the supply and distribution of energy. While there is a need for improved electricity generation capacity and transmission infrastructure within African countries, greater cross-border trade in electric power is a potentially cost-effective way of connecting excess capacity in one country or region with (peak) demand in another. This is why power pools were established in Central, Southern and Eastern Africa. Drawing on individual studies, this paper highlights the common objectives but quite different origins and challenges of these structures. Overall, the cases suggest that despite the initial, relative success of the Southern Africa Power Pool (SAPP), power pools across the continent are faced with: • a deficit in investment in generating and transmitting power nationally; • a lack of trust among states and willingness to liberalise markets; • dominance by national power providers in national politics and • the resulting preference for bilateral over regional agreements. The SAPP case highlights the important role that South Africa originally played though this has waned, while a lack of a real energy champion in the West and Eastern power pools appears to limit their immediate potential. Even as Ethiopia becomes an energy giant, it is not clear that this will lead to improved regional energy supplies through a power pool given the political preference for bilateral deals and connections.

    Electricity Trade and Capacity Expansion Options in West Africa “Electricity Trade and Capacity Expansion Options in West Africa” A USAID funded collaborative project with the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS The West African Power Pool & Optimal Long-Term Planning Of International Transmission With A Free-Trade Electricity Policy Interim Report, 2001 F. T. Sparrow Brian H. Bowen PURDUE UNIVERSITY ECOWAS Power Pool Conference Dakar, Senegal March 20-22, 2001 Electricity Trade and Capacity Expansion Options in West Africa 1 Electricity Trade and Capacity Expansion Options in West Africa SUMMARY Interim Report, 2001 There are major gains to be made, in West Africa, from a regionally integrated free trade electricity policy (base case scenario) compared with limited or no energy trade among the ECOWAS states (scenario 2). In the free trade scenario the total cost of new lines and expansions on existing transmission lines amounts to only 4.7% of the total capital expenditure (or 1.6% of total regional cost). This $275 million ($100 million to existing lines expansion and $175 million to new lines expansions) for lines capital expenditure provides a very attractive investment basis for making substantial regional savings to the order of $4.5 billion ($21 billion – $16.5 billion) across the region for the 20-year long-term horizon. In the ECOWAS Zone A over 2000MW of new load carrying capability is added to the two lines, Benin to Togo, and Togo to Ghana. The largest expansion in ECOWAS Zone B is from Cote D’Ivoire to Guinea with a total long-term expansion of 442MW.
