  • Optimising the Concentrating Solar Power Potential in South Africa Through an Improved GIS Analysis

CSP has the potential to become a leading Renewable Energy Technology, as it is the only one inherently equipped with the facility for large-scale thermal energy storage for increased dispatchability. There are many studies that aim to determine the potential for CSP development in certain regions or countries. South Africa has a high solar irradiation resource by global standards, but few studies have been carried out to determine the potential for CSP. One such study was conducted in 2009, prior to any CSP plants having been built in South Africa.

  • Government of Sierra Leone
    Government of Sierra Leone PRESS RELEASE SIGNING OF THE UTILITY GRID INFRASTRUCTURE AND ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AGREEMENT BETWEEN GOVERNMENT OF SIERRA LEONE AND KARPOWER INTERNATIONAL DMCC (Monday, 11 June 2018 - Freetown, Sierra Leone) The Government of Sierra Leone represented by The Ministry of Energy, the Ministry of Finance and the Electricity Distribution and Supply Authority, EDSA, have today concluded and signed a two-year Utility Grid Infrastructure & Electricity Supply Agreement with the Karadeniz Powership Kaya Bey Company Limited, (Karpowership), for the generation of electricity from its Maritime vessel docked in Freetown. I. Background In a bid to alleviate the immediate power challenges and to ensure a more sustainable and affordable power supply for the next twenty-four months, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Energy in collaboration with the Electricity Distribution and Supply Authority, (EDSA), and the Electricity Generation and Transmission Company, (EGTC), constituted a committee to renegotiate the terms of the contract with Karpowership. Late last year, the previous Government entered into an arrangement with Karpower International to supply 30MW for a period of 5 years at 19.596 USc/KWh. This, in excess of the average tariff paid by EDSA’s customers of 18.76 USc/KWh, would have resulted in high deficits for the Authority, a situation that has made EDSA heavily reliant on Government’s subsidies for the cost of daily operations. In general, subsidies negatively affect Government’s spending on required social sector services, particularly in education and health. 1 II. Gains from Renegotiations We are pleased to inform the general public that the Committee has successfully renegotiated the Agreement and made the following substantial gains: i.

International News Project overview of CGN Solar Delingha 50MW parabolic trough CSP plant The CGN Solar Delingha 50MW parabolic trough CSP plant is one of China’s first batch of demonstration CSP projects and one of China’s first batch of demonstration CSP projects and leads the construction progress. The project has a total investment of 1.938 billion yuan and is equipped with 9 hours of molten salt heat storage. Once completed, CGN Solar Delingha 50MW parabolic trough CSP plant will be the first commercial parabolic trough project and the first operational demonstation CSP project in China. (cspplaza, 07.08.2018) Mehr Ten "CSP+" Power Station Development Modes In view of the fact that CSP still faces the problems of high investment cost and high cost of electricity, the development mode of “CSP+” seems a good choice for building new plants.

  • HAYA CHEMAITILLY. Sectarian Politics and Public Service
    Afkar: The Undergraduate Journal of Middle East Studies 1, no. 1 (Fall 2019): 33–47 Sectarian Politics and Public Service Provision: The Case of Electricité du Liban HAYA CHEMAITILLY, King’s College London Abstract This article explores the impact of sectarian power-sharing agreements on public service provision by looking at the case of the Lebanese public electricity company, Electricité Du Liban. It argues that sectarian power-sharing presents a significant obstacle to providing high- quality services and renders public utility companies inefficient. In Lebanon, this system is the foremost contributor to the current 1,000 MW electricity deficit, a deficit that has resulted in daily power cuts since the 1990s. With the adoption of the Taʾif Agreement at the end of the civil war, ministries and SOEs were placed under sectarian control in a system that does not allow for the meritocratic recruitment of public officials. This has facilitated corruption, nepotism, and poor management, as was the case in the Karadeniz affair, in which the Ministry of Energy and Water acquired three powerships from Turkey. This article also debates the potential privatization of the electricity sector. While private companies such as Electricité De Zahlé suggest that privatization could solve many of the current issues, there is a risk that it would have limited impact if politically connected elites acquired the private contracts. Moreover, the prospects for privatization remain bleak, as sectarian politics make reaching consensus over policies a lengthy and often, unattainable, process. Keywords: sectarianism; Lebanon; electricity; public services; conflict reconstruction; privatization; Electricité Du Liban Haya Chemaitilly is currently doing a master’s program in International Energy at Sciences Po Paris.
