Grid constraints cast shadow over South Africa's seventh renewables bid window

South Africa's grid constraints are continuing to cast a shadow over the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP), the seventh bidding round for which was launched in December for 3 200 MW of onshore wind and 1 800 MW of solar photovoltaic (PV) after months of delay. Independent Power Producer Office head Bernard Magoro told prospective REIPPPP Bid Window Seven (BW7) bidders during a virtual conference on January 17 that the delays were largely attributed to concerns over the availability of grid-connection capacity in the wind- and solar-rich Eastern, Western and Northern Cape provinces. Various interventions and solutions had been considered following the partial failure of BW6, during which none of the wind projects vying for a 3 200 MW allocation were selected as preferred bids after Eskom indicated that the gird capacity on which they were premised had been consumed. Therefore, only bids for 1 000 MW of solar PV advanced to the preferred-bidder stage. The development resulted in Eskom introducing an interim grid allocation solution that departs from the previous 'first come, first served' approach to one that prioritises so-called 'shovel-ready projects', while it also sought approval for a new 'gated' approach that would enable it to set aside specific capacity for public and private procurement cycles. Eskom also indicated that it would adopt a new curtailment framework that could unlock immediate connection capacity in those areas that are described in its most recent Generation Connection Capacity Assessment as having 'zero' capacity. The document indicates that there is 19.9 GW of grid capacity elsewhere in the country, however. Both proposed solutions have been submitted to the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) for noting and approval but they have not been integrated into the BW7 request for proposals (RFP). It does, however, include a modest change to the curtailment approach by removing the previous threshold restricting compensation for energy than could not be absorbed by the grid so as to "optimise the management of available grid capacity". In addition, BW7 allows for bidders to bid based on grid-connection cost estimate letters (CELs) and valid budget quotes (BQs), instead of CELs alone. There is also potential for bidders to access capacity recovered as a result of the expiry of BQs for projects that failed to achieve financial close under both BW5 and the Risk Mitigation procurement programme. Eskom announced the expiry in early January of five Risk Mitigation BQs and there is a likelihood of further expiries arising from BW5. Nevertheless, prospective bidders for the allocation in REIPPPP BW7 could have to rely heavily on prospects outside of those regions with the most potent renewable resources, while Nersa continues to consider the new curtailment and grid allocation frameworks for future rounds. MORE RENEWABLES, BATTERY & GAS PROCUREMENT SOON Magoro indicated that BW8 for another 5 000 MW of renewables could be launched before the end of government's financial year, which runs to the end of March. Likewise the office is also preparing a third battery storage auction for 616 MW and a Coega-specific gas-to-power bid window, which will have a request for qualifications phase ahead of the RFP. These would be in addition to the second bidding round under way for 615 MW of battery storage and the inaugural gas-to-power auction for 2 000 MW. The grid, Magoro said, would remain a challenge for the future rounds. But he expressed optimism that all the components proposed for managing grid capacity and grid allocations would be in place for the upcoming bid windows. Besides the modification to BW7's approach to curtailment, the other new elements introduced as part of the RFP include: A reduction, from 100% to 80%, in the government guarantee framework should Eskom, which remains the buyer, fail to pay, while the 100% guarantee remains in place for any gover...

Eskom's ‘onerous' new grid access rules receive cool reception

Eskom's newly released Interim Grid Capacity Allocation Rules (IGCAR), formulated in response to surging demand for grid access in a context of acute grid scarcity, have received a cool reception from industry, with some of the conditions included in the new framework being viewed as “onerous”. GM for operations enablement Velaphi Ntuli says the IGCAR, which have been developed and canvassed over the past six months, have been designed to ensure that shovel-ready generation projects are given priority. The rules, thus, replace the ‘first come, first served' framework that has hitherto prevailed with a ‘first ready, first served' approach. He reports that the rules are also designed to level the playing field between projects participating in public procurement processes and those being pursued in line with a recent reform allowing private distributed generation projects, including those that wheel electricity through the grid, to proceed without a licence. The absence of a grid queuing system came to the fore during the sixth bid window of the country's public renewables procurement programme when none of the 23 onshore wind projects that bid for a 3 200 MW allocation were selected as preferred bids, owing to claims of grid over-subscription in the Western, Eastern and Northern Cape provinces. Ntuli reports that Eskom is working with the Independent Power Producers Office to finalise the status of projects that have been procured under various public programmes and are, thus, continuing to take up a grid allocation, but which have failed to reach financial close. Engineering manager Seetsele Seetswana says the new rules retain the principle of non-discriminatory and open access, but reports that Eskom has reserved the right to set aside allocations for future public procurement programmes to avoid a repeat of the failure of bid window six. To facilitate a shift to the ‘first ready, first served' principle, Eskom outlined the criteria it would apply to assess the ‘state of readiness' of a project, including: the securing of all environmental and water-use authorisations; power purchase agreement heads of terms signed between the independent power producer (IPP) and the end-user; confirmation of the appointment of Eskom-approved design consultants for self-build connections; measured data for solar for a period of a year and for two years for wind; and the payment of a Grid Capacity Allocation Guarantee issued by an Eskom-approved financial institution. Only once these conditions have been met will Eskom issue a budget quote (BQ) for grid connection, while still reserving the right to revoke such a quote should there be a failure on the part of the IPP to meet any of the milestones outlined in the BQ. Following a pause of seven months, Eskom will also begin processing BQs again under the new rules, starting with the backlog of applications that has accumulated. Eskom's Nonhlanhla Miya reports that the processing of the 40 outstanding applications in the Eastern, Northern and Western Cape provinces would be processed as from the end of June and that the outcome of that process will be communicated by the end of July. The projects have a combined capacity of some 5 GW and those that are approved should secure BQs soon after having paid their guarantees, while those that fail to meet the IGCAR criteria will receive BQ refunds. South African Independent Power Producers Association (SAIPPA) chairperson Brian Day has described the new rules as “dysfunctional”, noting that they require grid connection to be done right at the end, and in terms of resource definition are more onerous than what is expected from a bank that might be funding up to 80% of an IPP project. “It's not rational. “The amount of work on the side of the IPP or developer is now enormous, long before grid connection is known to be possible. “The amount of money they've got to spend on technical preparations and on lawyers is enormous,” Day asserts. He notes that al...

Eskom's new grid queuing rules governed by ‘first ready, first served' approach

State-owned electricity utility Eskom is preparing to issue updated grid queuing rules that will outline how it plans to manage scarce grid connection capacity in a way that avoids “hogging” of capacity and ensures that only “shovel-ready” project are allocated capacity. The new approach is contained in what Eskom terms its Interim Grid Capacity Allocation Rules (IGCAR) document, which outlines a shift from the ‘first come, first served' framework that has hitherto been implemented to one based on ‘first ready, first served'. The absence of a queuing system came to the fore during the sixth bid window of the country's public renewables procurement programme when none of the 23 onshore wind projects that bid for a 3 200 MW allocation were selected as preferred bids, owing to claims of grid over-subscription in the Western, Eastern and Northern Cape provinces. Eskom tells Engineering News that the rules under the IGCAR are “aimed at ensuring that as many generators are connected to the grid as soon as possible and also ensuring that there is no capacity hogging”. The IGCAR has been developed following consultation with the industry and, while they do not require any approval by the National Energy Regulator of South Africa, given that Section 21 of the Electricity Regulation Act grants Eskom power over the rules, the utility will nevertheless seek to have the rules adopted and approved by the regulator. In addition, Eskom intends hosting a briefing session with industry in the coming two weeks to clarify how it intends managing the IGCAR. Eskom has also communicated with the industry that it will resume with processing budget quotes (BQs) for grid access in the Cape region once the IGCAR process has been finalised. Having also been criticised previously for the length of time it was taking its Grid Access Unit to issue BQs, Eskom reports that it is in the process of ensuring that timeframes can be reduced. “On average in the last 12 months, it has taken eight months to issue a BQ due to issues both internal to Eskom and in the industry,” Eskom tells Engineering News. The utility confirms that its Grid Access Unit currently has 28 staff members, but stresses that the bulk of the technical work is done by the various technical experts in the distribution and transmission divisions. “The goal is to issue BQs within six months and the introduction of the IGCAR and other initiatives will result in improved delivery times,” Eskom states. “There are currently 45 BQs that have been issued between 1 April 2021 to 30 November 2022 which have been delayed for various reasons with a total capacity of 4 717 MW.” The importance of having queuing rules that are supportive of shovel-ready projects has been amplified by the result of a recent survey showing that there is a 66 GW pipeline of wind and solar projects at various stages of development, including about 18 GW that could be considered ready to proceed. There have also been intensifying calls for a clarification of the rules in light of the fact that the market is no longer dominated by a single public procurement programme, following the removal of the licensing threshold for embedded generation projects. Operation Vulindlela reports that this reform, together with a streamlining of project approvals means that projects are theoretically able to add capacity to the grid more quickly and has resulted in an embedded generation project pipeline of 108 projects with a combined capacity of just over 10 GW. During a recent presentation to the Presidential Climate Commission, the Presidency's Rudi Dicks, who oversees Operation Vulindlela, confirmed that Eskom was revising its grid capacity allocation principles with the aim of allocating available capacity to projects that are ready to proceed.

Today we continue our Boston Marathon series. I'm hosting moms who qualified for the 2020 Boston Marathon, which was postponed to September and eventually canceled altogether. These women are resilient, and I'm excited to share their struggle/victory stories and why the 2020 Boston Marathon would have been their victory run.I was inspired to do this because I know how disappointed I was hearing the news of the cancelation when you work for years toward a goal only to have it ripped away from you, it can be devastating. We can't always schedule our circumstances, but we can choose our attitudes toward them, and these runners have chosen to use this disappointment to propel them forward in new goals.Today's guest didn't start her running journey until her 30s post children. She attempted a few times throughout her life, but it never gained attraction. She never planned to even run a marathon, and now she has seven under her belt, including three BQs, but this year would have been her first Boston Marathon.She's had to work through multiple injuries and figure out how to get her training in with a busy family and work schedule. Sometimes we push our goals to the side because we think we can't have both a good family structure and a big goal, but Jen proves you can have both, and by the end of this episode, I think you'll be itching to develop a big goal for yourself if you don't have one already. Let's get chatting!LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE TO HEARHow she pushed past her comfort zone and the hard to begin her journey of enjoying running and racing.How creating a mantra sheet helped her stay positive and get through the 26.2 miles!How she found joy in the journey even when things don't come together just the way she had first planned.FULL SHOW NOTEShttp://www.redhotmindset.com/episode23/LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODEConnect with Jen on FacebookSnag Mind Over Marathon on AmazonCONNECT WITH MEFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/redhotwinnersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/redhotmindsetYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/redhotmindset
