1 1 EUROPEAN COMMISSION Joint Research Centre, JRC AFRETEP Rural electrification options for Africa Solar Energy Symposium. Dr. Irene Pinedo Pascua Postdoctoral Researcher IET - Institute for Energy and Transport Ispra - Italy
2 2 Overview - What is AFRETEP? - Who are we? - What are we doing? What do we want to do?
3 3 Scientific and Technical Support to Sustainable Energy Development in Africa: Rural Electrification, Renewable Energy and Communication. Funded by: European Commission, EuropeAid Co-operation Office. Implemented by: European Commission - Joint Research Centre Institute for Energy, Renewable Energy Unit (REU). Objective: to contribute to understand the potential for renewable energy options in Africa for increased access to electrification in rural areas.
4 Establishing a network of institutions Scientific and technological knowledge sharing Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification
5 What is needed? Where do I start? What do I need? Am I missing something? Is this really like this? 5

15 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification. 15 Gather high quality renewable energy resource geographical information in Africa (solar, wind, hydro, biomass, geothermal) and make it accessible via AFRETEP website. Develop a consolidated technical and socio-economic base for assessing rural electrification projects
16 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification. Resource maps (solar, wind, biomass, electricity transmission network ) Existing energy planning tools New methodologies 16 Social/Demographic data (demand distribution, consumption pattern, level of service, willingness to pay, etc.) Technical data (configuration, sizing, performance, etc.) Economic data (discount rate, costs, O&M, etc.) Decision support system tool Database of geographical datasets. WEB interface, easy to use. Allow input from the user. Continental scale. Compare different technological. options for rural electrification. Scenarios.
17 17 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification.
18 18 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification. How much energy could be economically supplied by using renewables? PV minigrid, diesel minigrid and grid extension. Continental scale. Simple cash flow model. How much the electricity would cost?
19 19 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification. Data compilation All the data you could provide us with, would be really valuable for the project and the community!
20 20 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification. Sources PV minigrid electricity cost Results PVGIS solar radiation database (daily data ). Assumptions System must not run out of energy more than 5% of the days. Daily energy consumption pattern: 1/3 daytime and 2/3 evening and night. PV array size 15kWp; battery depends on location. Total system looses: 30%. Lifetime: 20 years PV modules and 5 years batteries. Investment costs: 2.5 /Wp + 40% installation; 1.5 /Ah. O&M: 1200 /year. Discount rate: 5%.
21 21 3 Support sustainable energy planning for rural electrification. Sources Diesel mini-grid electricity cost Results 2008 diesel prices database. Accessibility map. Assumptions Transport cost per liter Transport cost per kwh Generation and transport cost per kwh, including labour, capital cost, maintenance and amortization.
