Electrification Overview
Electrification Indaba
by
DG of Department of Energy
Ms Nelisiwe Magubane
15 March 2012
Background
• After 1994 and through the Government’s initiative of RDP
(Reconstruction and Development
Programme) the
electrification programme was endorsed.
• In the period 1994 – 2001 electrification was an electricity
industry funded programme.
• During 2001 Government took responsibility for funding
and managing the electrification programme, via funds
made available from National Treasury – as a result of the
White Paper on Energy Policy (1998).
• This programme is managed by Integrated National
Electrification Planning (INEP) unit within the Department
of Energy.
2
Objectives of INEP programme
• Integrate electrification with other Government Departments
programmes with the view of addressing Government
objective of poverty alleviation and job creation.
• Ensure full participation of Local Government in the
planning and implementations process by using
municipality’s IDPs.
• To
facilitate
greater
participation
of
previously
disadvantaged communities in the operations and
management of sector activities with a particular emphasis
on women, youth and the disabled.
• To ensure 92% access to electricity by 2014/15 for all formal
households, instead of universal access due to limited
resources and electricity industry short comings.

Electrification progress
• Over 5.4 million households were
connected to the grid between 1994
and 2011.

• More than 12 000 Schools were grid
connected from 1994 - 2011, and
about 3 000 schools were electrified
with non-grid technology in same
period.

• 345 Clinics in deep rural areas were
supplied with non-grid electrification
from 1994 to 2011.

• In period 2002 to 2011 close to

 Non-grid electrification programmes will in future not only be
implemented in concessionary areas, but on a limited basis in
other areas in the country that qualifies for non-grid roll-out.

Infrastructure Projects
Various Municipal and Eskom infrastructure projects were funded in
2011/12, related to the building of new substations, upgrading of existing
substations and inter- connecting High Voltage (HV) lines:
1. Eskom
• 43 projects under construction, mostly in KZN, EC and WC
• 4 more substations than earmarked in Stratplan (6 of 10)
• Different stages of completion – next 6 months
2. Municipalities
• 48 projects under construction, mostly in EC, FS and WC
• 11 more substations than earmarked in Stratplan (4 of 10)
• Different stages of completion – next 12 months.
More than 1/3 of current allocation is made for infrastructure projects –
Municipalities - R238 mil and Eskom - R830 mil = R1,07 bil

Challenges
• In the order of 82% of all formal households in SA have
access to electricity – 76% of all households.
• However, challenges in increasing these access figures:
–
–
–
–
Shortcomings in the electricity distribution industry;
Slow roll-out of grid and non-grid programmes;
Funding shortcomings and
Escalation of electrification costs
• Under current conditions the real number of households to
be electrified in the years to come will decrease – gap
between households without access to electricity and with
electricity will increase dramatically.
– No dramatic increase in electrification fund within the next
three financial cycles.
12
Proposed way forward
White Paper on Energy Policy (1998):
• Policy 7.1.4 states:
“Government will coordinate the electrification programme, including the
following activities: setting of realistic electrification targets, determination of
allocation criteria and priority areas for electrification, ensuring allocation and
management of funds, financing and subsidization of electrification projects and
determination of appropriate mix between grid and off-grid technologies.”
• Policy 7.1.4.10 states:
“Government will evaluate the impact of the national electrification programme
and will amend the electrification policy and strategy from time to time as
necessary”
• Electrification policies is still valid, need to look at different strategy
of implementation.
13
Proposed way forward (....2)
• Options available are limited and if implemented it might not be
popular. Available options need to be debated and considered,
such as:
– Need to address EDI challenges and structure;
– Increase efficiency in managing and implementing electrification
projects;
– Standardization of equipment and supply standards;
– Single purchasing office;
– National planning of electrification roll-out;
– Diversification of electrification technology – Energization vs
Electrification
– Role of private service providers and financial institutions in future
electrification and
– Have to invest more in non-grid technologies. International grand
funding available only for non-grid electrification projects
• The deliberations during this Indaba and the process to be
followed after this Indaba will need to address these issue.
