Hydro

Africa is still the world’s region which has exploited less than 7% of its feasible potential

Geothermal Africa has the potential to generate >15,000 MW of energy from geothermal power . In particular, Kenya is the first African country to exploit geothermal energy in a significant way, by involving both the private and public sector in its development.

12 2(a) CLIMATE-RESILIENT ENERGY SYSTEMS: Scaling Up Renewables

Wind

North & Eastern Africa (Kenya, Ethiopia and Madagascar) and South Africa have highest wind potential to be exploited in the continent.

Solar

Much of Africa is well exposed to sunlight, but photovoltaic technology is generally too expensive. PV panels are making a contribution in more remote areas where it may well be cheaper than alternatives such as diesel.

http://www.geni.org/globalenergy/library/renewable-energy-resources/world/africa/solar-africa/index.shtml 14 2(b) CLIMATE-RESILIENT ENERGY SYSTEMS: Energy Efficiency

Key Message

1 Approximately 35% of all generated power in Africa is lost through transmission losses and use of inefficient devices.

2 Improving energy efficiency has a potential of reducing CO2e emissions globally by 8.2 gigatonnes by 2030.

3 Improved efficiencies will reduce investment required for new capacity; reduce pollution and increase competitiveness!

• Economies of scale - larger power markets provide a large customer base reduces the risk of investment

• Increased system reliability and security of supply

• A good generation mix to mitigate the effects of drought in the power pools.

• Reduce dependency on thermal generation especially in Sub- Saharan Africa

• Started in around 2001 through the Green Energy Fund(GEF) and Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM)

• Government of Kenya giving annual support of ~US$ 250,000.

• Energy Management Awards sponsored by power sector Companies started in 2004.

• Total cumulative savings calculated around ~US$ 50 million.

Estimated annual emission reductions of ~ 600,000 CO2e

• Total cumulative savings calculated around US$ 50 million.

• Potential estimated annual savings is in the region of US$ 40million.

26 4 WAY FORWARD

• Government to commit more investment funds for renewable energy(not less than ~ 3% of GDP annually). ACT now • Developing economies to increase concessional funding to for renewable energy to approx. US$ 20 billion annually.

• Reform existing carbon markets in favour of Africa ACT together to tap carbon sources of investment funds.

• Interconnect and operationalise power pools.

• Government to provide cost-reflective tariffs

ACT differently • Regulators to be more proactive in driving efficiencies in the sector and attracting ppps
