1 SASSA LOW PRESSURE SOLAR WATER HEATER PROGRAMME May 19, 2011 Department of Energy, Pretoria

2 AGENDA 1. The Programme 2. Why SWH and this programme? 3. Approach

3 THE PROGRAMME

4 THE PROGRAMME Installs 110 litre low pressure SWHs in low income households under PoA approach free of charge. The project will see an immediate positive impact on the social, economic and environmental well-being.

5 SOLAR WATER HEATING (SWH) A water heating system using energy from the sun Dark evacuated tubes absorb heat and hot water rises naturally into the tank, while cool water in the tank flows down to the bottom of the vacuum tube. Main components: 1) collector, 2) liquid energy transfer medium (water or heat transfer fluid); 3) geyser/tank.

6 SALINENT PROJECT PARAMETERS Supplier Solar Academy of Sub Saharan Africa (SASSA) distributing the Tasolbrand 110 litre LP SWH has a daily thermal capacity of a MJ, which equals to 1.38 MWhelectricity saving per year. Estimated annual emission reduction 1.3 tco2/swh First CPA includes 59,000 installations. Total potential: installations within 3 years throughout South Africa. Total CER contribution sought 2.3 mil

7 WHY SWH AND THIS PROGRAMME?

8 BACKGROUND FOR THE PROGRAMME Africa has the highest solar radiation levels in the world, which makes the concept of SWH logical!

9 CONTRIBUTION TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Over 50 % or 5 million households in South Africa have electricity, but do not have a geyser in these households. The provision of SWHs free of charge for the targeted households will result improved service delivery to residents and to major social upliftment. The project will lead to employment opportunities in the solar sector, with training provided for technicians. Current electricity supply is not enough to meet projected future demand in South Africa. The proposed PoAwill reduce electric water heating loads and help the country to correct the energy mix, with a greater focus on renewable energy. Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

10 APPROACH

11 Project Participants: PROJECT PARTICIPANT AND IMPLEMENTING FRAMEWORK Solar Academy of Sub-Saharan Africa - Managing Entity International Carbon - CDM Cycle Management Standard Bank - CER Offtaker STANDARD BANK ERPA SASSA (project owner) Subsidy ESKOM INTERNATIONAL CARBON CDM Management SWH INSTALLATION and MANAGEMENT COMPANY (installation, maintenance, monitoring) SWH Carbon and Subsidy Rights HOUSEHOLDS Transport Entity Data Capturing Entity Community Development Entity

13 CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM 1. Applies the Programme of Activities Approach (PoA) First registered PoA in South Africa First SWH specific PoA worldwide 2. Methodology: Simplified modalities and procedures for small scale CDM projects AMS.I.C Thermal energy for user with or without electricity Comprise renewable energy technologies that supply users with thermal energy that displaces fossil fuel based gird energy (par 1 and17) Displacement of electricity is calculated as per the procedures detailed in AMS-I.D; option b weighted average emissions of the current generation mix has been applied

14 CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM 3. Baseline: Suppressed demand argumentation - Para 46 of the CDM Modalities and Procedures state that The baseline may include a scenario where future anthropogenic emissions by sources are projected to rise above current levels, due to the specific circumstances of the host Party. Determined based the energy output as per SABS test ( MJ/day/SWH) 4. Additionality: Attachment A to Appendix B of the simplified modalities and procedures has been applied identifying the following barriers for the CPA: Financial Resources - cash flow model Capacity to Absorb New Technologies - Comprehensive argumentation Limited Information - Comprehensive argumentation Simplified Additionality for Micro scale Activities

15 CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM 5. Unique identification and record keeping system for each CPA: Site Details: street address and GPS coordinates and ERF number Residence details: first name, surname, ID number and contact details Installer Details: installation date, installer name, company and contact details Installation Details: Serial Number, SWH type, size and collector area Residence Agreement to cede subsidy and carbon rights to SASSA The ERF number, is used to locate each SWH in a Geographical Information System (GIS) tool to enable spatial integration. The GIS (spatial view) can be used to identify candidate installations, as well as inform relevant parities when the status of the installation changes (e.g. finalized installation or failure).

16 CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM 6. Monitoring: Has three measurement and verification levels that are applied to ensure the operation of the SWH s and to calculate the expost emission reductions: 1) Real-time measurement (done in 1/ of the SWHs), 2) Inspection of operationally (done in 1/100 of the SWHs), and 3) Simulation approach to determine energy provide for each SWH passed on level 1 and 2 measurements. Note: real time mesurment shall happen in max 50 km radius from each installed SWH.

17 SABS testing (first approval) PROJECT PHASE / DOCUMENT TIMELINES August 2009 Eskom notification: rebate (bases on the thermal performance output ) applicable for LP SWH October 2009 Project Idea Note (PIN) March 2010 MoU SASSA and NMBM was signed PoA and CPA Design Documentation ( PDD ) April 2010 May 2010 Term Sheet on Carbon was signed between Standard Bank, IC and SASSA Start of Validation (GSC) Letter of No Objection (LoNO) SABS test completed (3. test) June 2010 July 2010 ONCE Start of Installations Onsite Audit Letter of Approval (LoA) Final Validation Report Requesting Registration by UNFCCC REGISRATION by UNFCCC August 2010 November 2010 December 2010 January 2011 April2011 To date 45,000 SWHs have been installed!
