Meeting the Climate Change and Energy Security Challenges Climate Change Response Strategy • Key Elements – Diversification of supply side mix – Energy Efficiency – Technological Innovation – Carbon market – Policy advocacy – Adaptation Diversification of Supply Side mix Current aspirant portfolio • Aimed at ensuring national demand is met whilst diversifying to non or low CO2 emitting technologies • By 2025 Eskom aspires to the following portfolio of Generation Assets* – totaling over 80 000MW of capacity: – Additional nuclear capacity of up to 20,000 MW – Additional renewable energy capacity of at least 1,600 MW – Additional imports to a maximum of the prevailing reserve margin (15%) – Additional pumped storage as required – Additional 4000MW of OCGT (including IPPs) – Additional cleaner coal capacity (Carbon Capture and Storage ready) limited beyond 2015 to decrease the coal proportion from 86% to below 70% by 2025 • Support an enabling environment for more renewables – carbon credits, feed in tariffs, green power trading etc *Reviewed annually and subject to regulatory approvals and investment hurdles Diversify primary energy mix 13 Existing Mix by 2025 Coal OCGT Nuclear Renewable Energy Imports Pumped Storage Energy Efficiency Energy Efficiency 15 • Demand-side management and energy efficiency to achieve 8000 MW by 2025 • 3000MW by 2013 (R10bn) • Billion kWh programme internally Wal-Mart NaturalNatural LightingLighting andand coolingcooling SmartSmart LEDLED refrigerationrefrigeration LightingLighting Technological Innovation Technology opportunities under development Ocean Current Biomass Energy Cogeneration Underground Coal gasification Advanced Nuclear Solar Thermal Carbon Capture and Regional Storage HVDC Hydro Advanced Transmission Power Lighting An Efficient Future… EPRI 2006 Carbon Market Investment Decision Making • Eskom’s approach to Investment decision making includes consideration of:- – Indirect costs – transmission benefits, CO2 cost and benefit, diversification benefits – Direct costs – capital, Operating & Maintenance, Fuel – Project risk – Strategic business alignment – Safety, health and environment – Macro and socio economic impact • Investment decisions must ensure long term energy security whilst reducing CO2 emissions •CO2 value essential to level the playing field Carbon Market Mechanisms • Clean Development Mechanism • Shadow Carbon value used in investment decision making (50% of EU emissions trading scheme value) • Future widespread and mature market essential • Applicable to all technologies and practices Comparative Costs in 2020-2025 Levelized Cost of Electricity, $/MWh 100 90 An Extraordinary Opportunity to Develop a Low-carbon Portfolio 80 70 Natural Gas Combined Cycle Integrated Gasification 60 Coal with Combined Cycle Wind capture with capture 50 Biomass Nuclear 40 30 0 1020304050 Cost of CO2, $/metric ton Source - EPRI Policy Advocacy Policy Advocacy • Constructive and long term input to domestic policy and strategy • Leader in defining position of global business community – International Chamber of Commerce –WBCSD –IEA – United Nations Processes (CSD, BAE etc) • Current focus on a post 2012 dispensation – contributing to the solution without compromising South Africa’s economic and social sustainability whilst assuring Security of Supply Adaptation Adaptation • Negative impacts of climate change will be experienced no matter what mitigation options are taken:- – Variable weather patterns – more droughts and floods, hotter summers, colder winters – Land use change – Changing population patterns – Changing customer base – impacts on agriculture and vulnerable industries. • Eskom adaptation actions – More robust water supply infrastructure – Low water consumption technology choices – Robust transmission infrastructure – Contingencies – eg spare towers – Integrated system – flexibility in delivery – Redundancy in the system Key Enablers Key Enablers Strategically aligned regulatory environment A national energy efficiency ethic Efficient and timeous approvals – especially environmental Unlocking the value of Carbon – CDM and global Carbon value Green power market mechanisms Strategic alignment on Primary energies – coal, uranium, imports Availability of skills Maximisation of local benefits – fleet strategies, ASGISA leverage.
