Sterling and Wilson Thought Leadership presentation January 2014 Contents Mining in Africa: Overview Power Consumption in Mining: Key requirements and trends Power Solutions by Sterling & Wilson Sterling & Wilson and SP Group: Overview 2 Mining in Africa: Overview (1/2) Introduction Distribution of select minerals in Africa . Africa has the largest or 2nd largest reserve worldwide for minerals like bauxite, industrial diamonds, manganese, phosphate rock, platinum . In early 1990s, Africa was receiving only ~5% of the global exploration and mining development investment . However due to changes like a need for infrastructure, stable legal systems, profit repatriation guarantees etc., in 2012, Africa received 15% (USD 99 bn)of the global exploration and mining investment 3 Mining in Africa: Overview (2/2) . Mining and quarrying of ~60 minerals represents around 20% of Africa’s economic activity . Minerals are the continent’s second-largest export category (~10% of the continent’s total exports) Summary: The immense ore deposits and the continually improving political and economic environment implies that the future is bright for mining in Africa 4 Contents Mining in Africa: Overview Power Consumption in Mining: Key requirements and trends Power Solutions by Sterling & Wilson Sterling & Wilson and SP Group: Overview 5 Mining is a significant consumer of energy; Electricity costs have increasing at much faster rate than other cost items in the mining industry Power Consumption . Mining sector is a large consumer of electricity in South Africa, taking about 15% of Eskom’s annual output1 . For minerals like gold & coal, electricity account for ~8%-10% of the total mining costs Cost inflation affecting South African mining industry, average annual increase in costs (2007-2012)2 1 ‘Towards and energy efficient mining sector’ (Eskom) 2 ‘Cost control and margin protection in the South African mining and metals industry’ (E&Y) 6 Requirements for power (incl. temporary power) in mining Power requirements . During mine construction . Grid supply is unavailable / unreliable (remote areas) . Before grid supply or power plant is installed . Supplemental power during expansion of mine . Emergency breakdown 7 Key trends mining related to power in Africa TRENDS IMPLICATIONS ON POWER REQUIREMENTS/ SOLUTIONS • Mines are getting deeper and resources • Increase in power requirement are becoming more difficult to find • Production at the mine is being started • Use of temporary power supply for a few years while it is still at small operation and then until full-scale operations; development of own working up to full-scale mining power plant later on • Need for flexibility while mining certain • Need for temporary power, as it is not worth commodities like nickel, gold and copper their while to build a power plant that will not be (mining operations undertaken only when used all the time. trading price reaches a certain level and • Ability to move power generators in and out at shut when price reduces) a customer’s request 8 Options available for mining companies Advantages Challenges 1 Purchase from grid . Low cost . Not available in areas without grid connectivity; may be irregular 2 Outright purchase of power . Ownership; Tax incentives . High capital expenditure equipment / own captive plant . Assured connectivity 3 Rental power . Assured connectivity . No ownership . Speed of deployment . Scalability . Lease payments are tax deductible . Flexible terms . Reduced capital outlay Solutions offered by Sterling & Wilson 9 There is tremendous potential for solar energy generation in Africa due to high solar irradiation. Mining sector can leverage the opportunity available Global solar radiation map (figures in kWh/sq.m./day Source: ‘The rising sun’ (KPMG 2011) 10 Contents Mining in Africa: Overview Power Consumption in Mining: Key requirements and trends Power Solutions by Sterling & Wilson Sterling & Wilson and SP Group: Overview 11 Power Solutions by Sterling And Wilson Technical solutions by S&W for power requirements in mining 1 1. Co-gen with Diesel (cooling or heating loads, if required) 2 2. Conventional Diesel based solution 3 3. Hybrid Diesel + Solar S&W’s Value Proposition 1) Joint investment in energy plant (partnered energy supply) 2) Fuel sourcing jointly 3) Temporary power solutions (containerised) 4) Conceptualizing energy optimization 5) Maintenance solutions 12 1 Co-generation • Co-generation is simultaneous production of Power and heat / cooling from a single fuel source being burnt in a Diesel / Gas engine / Turbine. • While the engine will deliver power for mining, exhaust can be used to generate cooling / hot water requirements of the campus. • This would result in reduced power demand for cooling / fuel savings on hot water. • For power demand in excess of 5 MW, heat can be also utilised for additional power generation through ORC / combined cycle Co-generation technology options Technology • Gas Turbines from 4 MW onwards (Dual fuel) • Reciprocating engines from 0.4 MW onwards Fuel Options • Natural gas • Diesel • Heavy oil / Crude oil • Bio-gas (from waste) 14 2 Conventional Diesel based solutions • Supply of Diesel engines from xxx to 3000 KVA • Full turnkey solutions with power on tap • Proven and tested for continuous operation • 400 / 6300 / 10500 KV options • Containerised 1 MW gen sets • Day tank / Radiator within container • Additional container for electrical / HT systems 15 Product Drawing of Containerized DG Product Drawing of Containerized DG 3 Hybrid Diesel + Solar Diesel Gen-Set Solar PV Module Inverter Station Fuel AMF Panel Saver Inverter/Transformer/HT Panel etc. Compact Sub-Station Load 11KV Solar PV Power System• Solar PV Power system consists of Solar PV module which converts Incident solar radiation to DC power. • The no of Array strings will be connected to Solar Inverter which converts DC to AC power. • AC switchgear units will be sized to supply maximum reliable power according to load.

  • NCLAT's Order
    NCLAT’s Order - Reinstating Cyrus Mistry Why in news? The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) reinstated Cyrus Mistry as Chairman of Tata Sons and Director of the Tata Group of companies for the remainder of his tenure. Who is Cyrus Mistry? Cyrus Mistry, son of Pallonji Mistry, is the owner of Shapoorji Pallonji group and the biggest stakeholder in the Tata group. Mistry was the sixth chairman of Tata Sons and had taken over in 2012 after Ratan Tata. Relations were seen as amicable between Mistry and Tata. However, after differences of opinions with group patriarch Ratan Tata, Mistry was ousted as both Chairman and Director in October 2016. This was done in a surprise move by the Tata Sons board. Mistry later moved the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). The Mumbai bench had upheld Mistry’s removal from his positions at Tata Sons and other Group companies. What is NCLAT’s decision? The appellate tribunal, NCLAT held Mistry’s sacking and the subsequent appointment of N Chandrasekaran to the top post at Tata Sons illegal. The move to take Tata Sons private has also been declared illegal and reversed. NCLAT set aside the 2017 order by the Mumbai bench of the NCLT. The current NCLAT order included directions on several major questions of corporate governance. Article 75 of the Articles of Association of the Tata Group grants Tata Sons the right to transfer the ‘ordinary shares’ of any shareholder. This can be done bypassing a special resolution in the presence of nominated directors of Tata Trusts. The NCLAT has barred Tata Sons from taking any action against Mistry, Shapoorji Pallonji, Cyrus Investments, and other minority shareholders under this provision.
