As an exporter of electricity, Ghana is the hub for several transnational transmission lines envisaged for the region. Business prospects for vendors for a variety of electrical and power electronic equip-ment are opening up with the transmission and distribution system expansion.

With the modernization of power sector, advanced technologies are now playing a major role.Automa-tion using Power electronics and digital technolo-gy in Power management including SCADA, Digital remote metering for better revenue, grid manage-ment to ensure power quality and uninterrupted availability are employed.

Power with automation as a subset will substantial-ly improve availability and quality of power to people of Ghana, improving their everyday life.

GHANA POWER SECTOR:ANTICIPATING DEMAND

In February 2015, His Excellency,the Hon’ble President of Ghana, Mr. John Mahama, announced an addition of 3,665 MW of generation capacity over the next 5 years, doubling existing capacity.

Envisaged addition will come from Independent Power Produc-ers including GE and Norway’s Jacobsen and the state-owned Volta River Authority (VRA), Ghana’s primary power producer and supplier.

Of the total 10% envisaged from RE sources, 6% will come from solar, the 155 MW Nzema solar plant to be commissioned in 2016. The plant will bring electricity to 100,000 rural house-holds.

In the short term, the government has already commissioned 450 MW from the Turkish Karadeniz Energy Group (Karpower International).

Increasing urbanization (60% of the population expected to be urbanized by 2020) means expanded electricity reach, opening up new opportunities for investors.

There are wide-ranging opportunities for private investment in the energy sector in the form of IPPs and under Feed-in-Tariffs for renewable energy projects. The target of 5,000 MW by 2015/16 coupled with the estimated requirement of an addi-tional 4,000 MW of capacity over the next 20 years, will require significant foreign investment, private capital, and technical expertise.

Given the pressing need for investment, the government is already turning towards the private sector for financing, ownership and management of facilities.

Opportunities are coming up in reducing system losses and improving efficiencies in generation, transmission and distribution, including next- generation technologies, improved transmission systems, superconducting materials, development of energy infrastructure as well as demand side management (DSM) measures to improve last mile efficiency.

Target of 10% power generation from Renewable Energy

Power demand growing at 12% p.a

SUBSAHARAN AFRICA: STRONG REGIONAL DYNAMICS

Favorable growth prospects; regional economy expected to expand at 4.5 % in 2015

More than 1 terawatt of base load potential

USD 800 Bn needed in Capital

40% new capacity from gas; 25% from RE sources

IMF’s latest Regional Economic Outlook for Sub-Saharan Africa (2015) projects that region is set to grow at 4.5% in 2015. While this rate will be at the lower end of the range experienced over the last few years, Sub-Saharan Africa will remain among the fastest growing regions of the world.

Though the region’s oil exporters have been hard hit by price decline, for the rest of the region, growth prospects remain favorable. These countries are enjoying the benefits of lower oil import bills, although some are also feeling the impact of lower prices for their non-oil commodity exports. Growth is projected to be particularly strong in most low-income and the more fragile countries, and this will help to reduce poverty levels and increase consumption.

The power sector in sub-Saharan Africa offers a unique combination of transformative potential and attractive invest-ment opportunities.

In most countries, electricity is provided by expensive diesel generators with prices ranging from three to six times what grid consumers pay across the world.

Sub-Saharan Africa is starved for electricity. The region’s power sector is significantly under developed, whether it is energy access, installed capacity or overall consumption. “The stakes are enormous. Indeed, fulfilling the economic and social promise of the region,and Africa in general, depends on the ability of government and investors to develop the continent’s huge electricity capacity,” says a Mc Kinsey & Co. report (Feb 2015).

Power Africa, the recently launched US-aided program envisages the addition of 10,000 MW across 6 countries,Ethio-pia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria, and Tanzania of clean, efficient electricity-generation capacity. The program opens up opportunities in expanding mini-grid and off-grid solutions and building out power generation, transmission, and distribution structures, enhance energy resource management capabilities, etc.

The Federal Government of Nigeria estimates that the country requires 40,000 MW of additional capacity to address the country’s energy needs and support wider economic development. With current installed capacity at 7,500 MW, plugging this gap will require USD 10 bn of investment across the electricity supply chain by 2020. The government plans to increase the supply and use of gas across the country, with a total investment of about USD 25 bn. Nigeria also hopes to start exporting power beyond the West African region to Central and South African countries, based on the delivery of the country’s electricity transmis-sion super grid, estimated to cost about USD 5 bn. The levels of investment required to enable energy transition are significant.

Côte d’Ivoire has recently regained its standing as a regional energy exporter. As a member of the West African Power Pool (WAPP), the country has increased its exports of electricity to neighboring Benin, Togo, and Burkina Faso.

Currently, 67% of the electricity comes from thermal power utilizing natural gas. A quarter is generated from hydro-power. Though natural gas production is expected to increase by 60% in the next 10 years, electricity demand is projected to surpass the capacity of existing gas reserves.Côte d’Ivoire also has significant renewable energy potential in wind, solar, biogas, and mini-hydro.

There are significant opportunities for foreign investors in the energy sector, particularly in renewables, given the gap between demand projections and existing supply.

The current energy situation is characterized by a dominance of traditional biomass consumption and low access to poor-quality and relatively expensive modern energy services. Modern energy services based on electricity and petroleum products are predominantly used for economic production and transportation; such services are mainly confined to the Monrovia area.

A research paper published by Columbia Engineering in 2013, estimates that approximately USD 1 bn will be required for grid construction,including 9,900 km of MV distribution line, as well as local LV distribution systems, transformers and all household connection costs, but omitting costs such as power generation, high voltage trans-mission lines and sub-stations, meeting a total aggregate national demand ofapproximately 500 MW, of which 395 MWis targeted for Monrovia itself.

Approximately USD 70 mn will be needed for all stand-alone systems, including diesel and solar, meeting a total national aggregate demand ofapproximately 10-11 MW, the majority of which will be served most cost-effectively by diesel power.

The present rehab work on Mt Coffee hydro power station is expected to cost around USD 250-300 million and will add close to 64 MW. Electricity supplied by renewable energy sources could reach 28 GWh a year, or an annual saving of USD 12.7 Mn in diesel fuel.

Cameroon has the second largest hydropower potential in Africa, after the Democratic Republic of Congo, with an estimated capacity of 12,000MW, principally in the Sanaga basin representing more than 115 bn KWh. So far only 721 MW have been developed. Apart from hydropower, the main installed network capacity (298MW) comes from thermal power plants.

The Government of Cameroon has planned to install hydropower facilities with capacity estimated at 720MW by 2020. New hydropower projects are in the pipeline such as Nachtigal (330MW developed by Elec-tricité de France) and Memve’ele (200 MW developed by Sinohydro China) whichare under development and Song Mbengue (950MW), Kikot (350MW), BiniWarak (50MW), Njock (170MW), Ngodi (475MW), Song Dong (250MW), Nyamzom (375MW) which are projected. These programs are supported by among others the African Development Bank and are aimed at attracting new investment in the sector.
