This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. With various commodity prices taking a nosedive over the past year, windfall tax gains from high commodity prices over the preceding two years have come to an end, resulting in a sharp fall in mining tax revenue, National Treasury has said. In the 2024 Budget Review released on February 21, it was revealed that, for the first ten months of the 2023/24 fiscal year, provisional corporate tax collections from the mining sector fell by R39.2-billion, or 50.4%, year-on-year. This significant decline was attributed primarily to lower commodity prices and weaker global growth. However, local issues such as increased power cuts and operational problems at South Africa's ports, have also weighed heavily on the sector. These challenges have resulted in reduced export capability, while safety stoppages, strikes and crime have driven operational costs up. National Treasury expects that these domestic constraints will continue to exert pressure on the mining sector in the year ahead. Although Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana said he expected commodity prices to stabilise over the next 12 months, he projected that corporate profitability in the mining sector would remain weak in the 2024/25 fiscal year. Mining was not alone in delivering decreased tax revenue over the past year. Collections from the manufacturing sector also contracted, while the finance sector registered only marginal growth. Following robust growth over the two prior years, import value-added tax (VAT) and customs duties collections slowed considerably. As such, Godongwana revealed that VAT collections for the 2023/24 fiscal year had been revised down by R26.1-billion compared with 2023 Budget expectations. Overall, National Treasury said that gross value added in the mining sector contracted by 1.6% in the first three quarters of last year, compared with the same period in 2022. Mining sales declined by 14.9% in response to weaker global demand.

SAAFF warns of rising port-congestion costs

The South African Association of Freight Forwarders (SAAFF) estimates that the current congestion at South Africa's ports is costing at least R124-million a day in direct and indirect costs. With 96 vessels waiting at anchorage outside the country's commercial ports, CEO Juanita Maree estimates the direct daily costs to be R98-million, comprising both sunk costs and congestion surcharges. The indirect costs associated with impeding the movement of goods valued at about R7-billion, meanwhile, are estimated by SAAFF to be at least R26-million. Transnet has confirmed that the number of vessels waiting outside Durban Container Terminal (DCT) Pier 2, the country's largest container terminal, stood at 16 on November 20 and that the backlog was currently only forecast to be fully cleared by the end of February. The State-owned company also confirmed that during the period of inclement weather in October more than 20 vessels had waited at outer anchorage at Durban for up to 18 days. Maree reports that there has been an improvement at the Cape Town and Port Elizabeth harbours, but that the Durban terminals remain severely delayed, with vessels at anchorage for about nine days. Shipping lines have responded by imposing congestion surcharges and there are also reports that they are diverting South Africa-bound cargo to Port Louis, in Mauritius, which is adding to lead times and imposing additional supply-chain costs, which will ultimately be carried by domestic consumers. Transnet chairperson Andile Sangqu has warned that the problem is complex and cannot be overcome immediately, owing to serious equipment and maintenance backlogs. The group has, however, received permission from the National Treasury to accelerate procurement and Transnet Port Terminals (TPT) is aiming to procure additional rubber-tyred gantries, straddle carriers and ship-to-shore cranes for delivery between April 2023 and April 2025. In addition, it would continue to pursue various private sector partnerships across the port system with a due diligence under way related to a partnership with International Container Terminal Services Incorporated, of the Philippines, which has been named as the preferred bidder for a 25-year joint venture with TPT at DCT Pier 2. Maree says a greater sense of urgency and greater collaboration is required to address the immediate crisis. "We must improve operational efficiency and increase throughput, or else the trade, transport, and logistics industries will continue to curtail desperately needed economic growth for South Africa."

Eskom's head of distribution Monde Bala reports that Eskom and the National Treasury are hoping that the number of municipalities participating in the Eskom Municipal Debt Relief Support Programme could rise to 67 from the 28 already approved at the start of October. The deadline for applications was extended to October 31, from an initial deadline of the end of September, to allow for further voluntary applications. Speaking at the group's results presentation, during which it was confirmed that arrear municipal debt had increased from R44-billion in 2021/22 to R58.5-billion at the end of March and had climbed to above R65-billion since, Bala said 39 additional applications were currently being assessed. The programme, which was announced during the February Budget, is designed to enable Eskom to write off municipal debt, with 136 of the country's 257 municipalities having been in arrears to Eskom at the end of March. In return, municipalities committed to keeping their current accounts with Eskom up to date, which would help improve the lossmaking utility's liquidity. The State-owned utility reported a R24-billion loss for the 2022/23 financial year and warned of a further R23-billion-plus loss for the current financial year to the end of March 2024. The writedowns will be implemented over three financial years should the participating municipalities meet the scheme's 14 conditions, including minimum collections stipulations, a ringfencing of the Eskom account which should be paid first and a restriction on borrowings. There is also the potential for a revocation of a municipality's electricity distribution licence should it fail to comply with the conditions. The National Treasury has confirmed that the collective debt owed to Eskom by the 28 municipalities approved for participation under the Programme represents R26.69-billion of the R58.5-billion owed to the utility as of the end of March. Bala said that if the remaining 39 applicants were approved it would represent 95% of the arrear debt owed to Eskom. After 12 months of compliance with the conditions, Eskom, in consultation with National Treasury, writes off one-third of the arrear debt balance as of March 2023. Municipalities have to comply for all 36 months for the balance to be fully written off.

Anglo Platinum's half-year earnings expected to be sharply down

The earnings of Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) for the first half of this year are expected to be sharply down. Headline earnings and headline earnings per share (HEPS) are likely to decrease by between 65% and 75%. Compared with R26.7-billion in the first half of last year, headline earnings are likely to be between R6.7-billion and R9.4-billion, the company informed the Johannesburg Stock Exchange News Service (SENS) on Monday. HEPS are expected to decrease to between 2 544c and 3 569c a share compared with 10 140c in the first six months of last year. Basic earnings per share for the period are likely to decrease by between 65% and 75% compared with the first half of last year, with basic earnings at between R6.6-billion and R9.3-billion, compared with R26.7-billion in the corresponding period of last year. Compared with 10 125c in the first half of last year, earnings per share are expected at between 2 506c a share and 3 531c a share. Earnings have decreased for the period largely owing to a decline in revenue as a result of the lower average platinum group metals (PGMs) basket price. The main contributors to this were declines in the dollar prices of rhodium and palladium. Rhodium was down 47% and palladium 29% lower. The weakening rand/dollar exchange rate partially mitigated the dollar price impact on the overall rand basket price, which decreased by 15% against the corresponding period last year. Furthermore, sales volumes from own production, excluding trading, were 12% lower, reflecting lower refined production as a result of the Polokwane smelter needing post-rebuild ramp-up in January. Also lowering sales volumes from own production were yearly maintenance and asset integrity work at the processing operations, along with the impact of Eskom load-curtailment, which resulted in deferred production of 66 400 oz of PGMs. Continued inflationary pressure and exchange rate volatility have also led to higher mining and processing costs. Costs incurred in purchasing of concentrate decreased compared with the first six months of last year owing to lower prices and volumes. Amplats will release results for the six months ended June 30 on SENS on Monday, July 24, the company stated in a release to Mining Weekly.

Huawei Technologies has officially launched its flagship Mate50 Pro smartphone in South Africa, and the company's Akhram Mohamed is in the studio to tell TechCentral's audience all about it. Mohamed, who is vice president of operations at Huawei Consumer Business Group South Africa, unpacks the key features of the Mate50 Pro, including its Ultra Aperture XMAGE camera system and Kunlun Glass, which greatly enhances screen drop resistance – and we put it to the test rather dramatically in this episode of TCS Impact Series. The smartphone, available through network operators or the Huawei online store, features a distinctive new “Space Ring” design for the rear camera system and comes in two different types of rear cover: silver or black glass, or a premium orange vegan leather. And, no, thanks to US sanctions on China, there is no official Google Mobile Services support for the phone – but Mohamed explains in the interview why it's now easy to access apps and services through Huawei's AppGallery. Other key features of the new Mate50 Pro include: * IP68-rated water resistance; * 6.74-inch Huawei FullView Display with a screen resolution of 2 616x1 212 pixels and a high refresh rate of 120Hz and 1 440Hz PWM dimming to reduce flickering and relieve eye fatigue * A 4 700mAh battery, despite a slim-body design; * 66W fast-charging via cable or 50W wireless fast-charging; and * Low-battery Emergency Mode that activates when the battery level falls to 1%, with SuperEnergy Boosting that allows the Mate50 Pro to extend standby time by three hours, or 12 minutes of call time. The Huawei Mate50 Pro is available in South Africa from all network providers and is priced from R24 999 for the 256GB and R26 999 for the 512GB version. TechCentral

Circuito de Montmeló en Cataluña, un breve repaso a su historia.

Programa del Motor: AutoFM

¡Extracto! de la tertulia emitida en ONDA CERO MADRID SUR el 18 de Noviembre. CIRCUITO DE MONTMELO - CIRCUIT DE CATALUNYA Aunque en 1991 todo el deporte español miraba hacia los Juegos Olímpicos de Barcelona que se celebrarían con un enorme éxito al año siguiente, lo cierto es que ese año se inauguró uno de los recintos más importantes para la historia del motor en España: el Circuito de Montmeló, hoy denominado oficialmente Circuit de Barcelona – Catalunya. Como curiosidad, cabe destacar que la zona que se eligió para la construcción del circuito se encuentra entre Montmeló y Granollers, es por eso que el tercer sector del circuito está asentado en el término municipal de la capital del Vallès Oriental. La inauguración del autódromo tuvo lugar el 10 de septiembre de 1991, y para el acto se contó sobre el asfalto con los modernos (entonces) Seat Toledo GT-16V, los Audi 100 y los Fórmula 3 de Volkswagen, traídos expresamente desde Alemania. Pero el verdadero bautismo tuvo lugar cinco días después, con la celebración de Campeonato de España de Turismos. El expiloto de F-1 Luis Pérez Sala tendrá siempre el honor de haber sido el primer ganador en Montmeló. Apenas dos meses después de su inauguración, se disputo el primer Gran Premio de la Formula 1 ante 60 mil espectadores que fueron testigos de la victoria de Nigel Mansell. Pero lo más importante es que, desde aquel día, la Fórmula 1 no ha faltado ningún año a su cita con este circuito, que se ha convertido en el escenario anual del Gran Premio de España de Fórmula 1. Michael Schumacher, con seis victorias, es el piloto que más veces subió a lo más alto de podio de Montmeló en la Fórmula 1. Pero este circuito ha sido el escenario de muchas más carreras: por ejemplo, desde 1992 se disputa, de forma ininterrumpida, el Gran Premio de Cataluña de motociclismo, por lo que los mejores pilotos sobre dos ruedas también lo visitan cada año. También hay muchas otras competiciones que se disputan cada año en este trazado catalán: el Campeonato del Mundo FIA de Rallycross, el Campeonato de España de Motociclismo (CEV), el Festival de la Velocidad de Barcelona, el International GT Open, las 24 Horas de Catalunya de Motociclismo o las European Le Man Series (ELMS). EL RECORD DE LA ALONSOMANIA Entre los mejores momentos del Circuit destacan los años de la 'alonsomanía', en los que el tirón del piloto asturiano logró que se batiera el récord de asistencia al circuito: 140.700 personas presenciaron la carrera de F1 en el 2007 (354.700 en todo el fin de semana). Las cifras de MotoGP nunca llegaron a ser tan altas, aunque sí más constantes. En el 2008, un total de 213.350 espectadores marcaron el récord histórico de asistentes en MotoGP, 113.150 de ellos el día de la carrera. • 1991: Senna vs Mansell, duelo épico: El 21 de septiembre de 1991 el Circuito de Barcelona albergó el primer Gran Premio en el autódromo de Montmeló. Ese día Ayrton Senna y Nigel Mansell protagonizaron un duelo con tintes épicos. Competición en estado puro. ¡Qué forma de atacarse y defenderse del contrario! Y todo con extraordinaria limpieza. De aquella inolvidable batalla sobresalió una legendaria imagen que se ha convertido en un clásico. Ambos pilotos rodando en un vertiginoso rueda a rueda, separados por escasos milímetros, a más de 300km/h al final de la recta principal de Montmeló. Literalmente, saltaron chispas. Menudo estreno del templo de Montmeló. • 1996: Schumi, 'rain master': Cinco años después, el asfalto catalán volvió a ser escenario de otra gesta memorable que se ha instalado en el Olimpo de la Categoría Reina. Aconteció en la edición de 1996 y su protagonista, Michael Schumacher. Bajo un diluvio universal y unas condiciones de pista realmente terroríficas, el germano impartió una lección bajo la lluvia. Sin ninguna duda, fue una de las mejores actuaciones en mojado que se recuerdan. Por cierto, se convirtió en su primer triunfo en Ferrari, escudería a la que había llegado esa temporada con dos títulos de Campeón del Mundo bajo el brazo procedente de Bennetton. ¡Qué manos del Káiser! Para que te hagas una idea de la hazaña del rainmaster, el segundo clasificado, Jean Alesi (Benetton-Renault), llegó a más de 45 segundos. • 2009: Valentino Rossi vs Jorge Lorenzo: Muchas y buenas han sido las carreras que Montmeló ha acogido en MotoGP. Y la que más se recuerda por muchos es la protagonizada por Rossi y Lorenzo en 2009. Ambos se enfrentaron con las mismas armas, la Yamaha M1, y juntos incendiaron el trazado catalán como pocas veces se ha visto. Il Dottore hizo una maniobra in extremis, en la última vuelta, superándole en un punto prácticamente imposible. Ese adelantamiento ha pasado a la historia y, después de once años, muchos recuerdan esa carrera como una de las mejores jamás vistas. El público la vibró como nunca y las gradas se vinieron abajo, pero también supo reconocer el mérito de Lorenzo, así que tan ovacionado fue uno como otro cuando se escaparon del corralito y se subieron al muro para jalear a la tribuna. • 2013: Última victoria de Fernando Alonso: Por cuestiones obvias, no podía faltar Fernando Alonso. Y es que el asturiano ha realizado algunas actuaciones extraordinarias ante sus compatriotas. Todavía recordamos el día que sumó la primera victoria de un corredor español en su país. Fue en el Barcelona 2006 con el R26, uno de los mejores fórmulas 1 que ha conducido. O qué decirte de su increíble salida un lustro después en el mismo trazado. Sin embargo, nos hemos quedado con el que hasta la fecha es su último triunfo en la especialidad. El ovetense partió quinto por detrás de los dos Mercedes, un Red Bull y un Lotus. Luego llegó su talento y, con una salida sensacional y un ritmo muy consolidado, acabó llevándose el gato al agua. • 2016 Max Verstappen hace historia: Otro de esos momentos que jamás podremos olvidar es la histórica primera victoria de Max Verstappen en su primera carrera como piloto de Red Bull batiendo el récord de precocidad con tan solo 18 año. Red Bull había bajado a Kvyat a Toro Rosso debido a sus malos resultados y subió a un prometedor Max Verstappen. Una apuesta arriesgada que resultó ser acertada, pues tras un accidente de los dos Mercedes en la salida y una estrategia a favor del piloto holandés, Mad Max se haría con la primera victoria de muchas que estarían por llegar.

Implats commits R50bn capex to mines, beneficiation, energy, decarbonisation

Platinum group metals (PGM) company Implats, which generated free cash flow of R28.8-billion in the 12 months to June 30, said on Thursday that it had allocated R4.3-billion over the next five years to energy security and decarbonisation. Gross profit totalled R41.3-billion at a gross margin of 35% with earnings before interest tax depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) of R53.4bn at an Ebitda margin of 45%. The Johannesburg Stock Exchange-listed company, headed by CEO Nico Muller, declared a final dividend of 1 050 c a share, bringing the total dividend for the 2022 financial year to 1 575c a share. The company closed the period debt free and with net cash of R26.5-billion excluding leases. A suite of organic growth projects have been advanced and value-accretive acquisitive growth pursued amid rising input costs, constrained supply chains and labour market tightness particularly in Canada, the impacts of which were compounded by extended safety stoppages, intermittent power supply and periods of community unrest. Implats is committed to a five-year, R50-billion capital investment programme to extend life-of-mine development at several of its operations, increase beneficiation capacity, strengthen energy security and ensure the group meets its decarbonisation targets. Of this capital investment, R9-billion is earmarked to expand its South African and Zimbabwean smelting and refining facilities. In addition, around R8-billion will be invested across managed and joint venture South African mining operations over the next few years to extend life-of-mine at producing mines, secure meaningful employment and entrench South Africa's status as a stable and sustainable global PGM producer, to support enduring benefits for all stakeholders. Added to several other life-of-mine extension projects at the Impala Rustenburg operation, Implats is confident of sustaining and growing total refined six element (6E) PGM supply from its southern African assets over the next decade. Projects under study and in implementation at integrated processing assets will benefit the Southern African region's production, reduce the group's processing environmental footprint, and directly increase local beneficiation, positioning the region more competitively as a global mine-to-market PGM producer. Regarding the R4.3-billion allocated to ensure each operation has renewable energy in the mix to meet decarbonisation targets and strengthen energy security, Impala Canada is already 95% powered by renewable hydropower (5% natural gas), and Zimplats' energy mix is 50:50 thermal to renewable hydropower. Zimplats has obtained a 185 MW power generation license, with the first phase of a solar photovoltaic (PV) project (35 MW, $37-million in progress. This is the first large-scale project towards meeting the short-term (2030) decarbonisation target of a 30% reduction against the 2019 baseline, and it supports Implats' stated ambition of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. In addition, several studies are underway — 33 MW of solar PV generation is at feasibility stage at Marula, and pre-feasibility studies were completed at Impala Rustenburg and Impala Refineries — to establish additional renewable energy capacity of around 300 MW by 2030, with additional capacity possible. These studies are conducted in parallel to Implats' programme to purchase electricity from independent power producers. PROPOSED RBPLAT ACQUISITION In November 2021, the proposed acquisition of Royal Bafokeng Platinum (RBPlat) was launched, a transaction with the potential to transform the outlook of its key Western Limb assets at Impala Rustenburg, while ensuring long-term sustainable PGM production and continued economic benefits for the greater Rustenburg area and its communities. Implats is pursuing the conclusion of the offer process associated with its proposed acquisition of RBPlat, with a key focus on securing outstanding regulatory approval from the Competition Tribunal.

Energy and chemicals group Sasol expects to invest the bulk of the R15-billion to R25-billion it is budgeting to facilitate a 30% reduction in its carbon emissions by 2030 between 2025 and 2027, having spent only modest capital on such projects to date. The expenditure forms part of the JSE-listed group's yearly ‘maintain and transform' capital budget, which is expected to rise to between R26-billion and R27-billion in its 2023 financial year. Sasol will invest between R500-million and R1-billion during the year on projects designed to improve its environmental performance ahead of a scale-up in such expenditure from 2025 onwards. The bulk of the ‘transform capital' will be directed towards the introduction of process changes particularly at the group's Secunda complex, which is regarded as one of the largest single-site emitters of carbon dioxide globally. These include technology changes allowing for the displacement of coal with gas, the possible briquetting of coal fines to reduce its use of mined coal and the ramping down of coal-fired boilers as it begins procuring renewable energy from independent power producers (IPPs). The company says it has agreed key terms with IPPs for more than 600 MW of wind and solar to be introduced before 2025 and is planning to procure 1 200 MW by 2030. CEO Fleetwood Grobler reports that Sasol is working on future gas supply options, including the possible integration of imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) through Maputo, in Mozambique. It has, however, been able to extend the gas supply “plateau” from Mozambique by two years to 2028, following infill well drilling. The prospect of a “gas cliff” has come into focus again recently after Sasol Gas announced, and later delayed, the implementation of a 96% hike in the price of pipeline gas from August 1. Had the increase been introduced, the price of gas charged to South African customers would have increased from R68.39/GJ to R133.34/GJ. The Industrial Gas Users Association of Southern Africa warned that its members were not only facing the prospect of an “untenable” hike in prices, but also the prospect of gas shortages as production from Sasol's Mozambican wells tapered. Sasol says drilling is under way in a bid to find more gas and that it is now moving to explore acreage adjacent to its existing production wells. The company is also in advanced talks to finalise a term sheet for 40 to 60 petajoules (PJ) of LNG as additional incremental gas supply toward the latter end of the decade over and above its current 160 PJ requirement. GREEN HYDROGEN & NATREF REPURPOSING In parallel, the group intends moving ahead with an initial green hydrogen project at Sasolburg, in the Free State, where it will convert an existing 6 t/d electrolyser to operate on renewable electricity. The final investment decision for the green hydrogen project has been made with the aim of producing the first green hydrogen volumes towards the end of 2023. Details of the project will be announced once Sasol's investment partner, the Industrial Development Corporation, also approves the investment. The group is also studying larger green hydrogen prospects that are likely to proceed only after 2030, including the possible creation of a green hydrogen hub at Boegoebaai, in the Northern Cape. Grobler expresses particular enthusiasm for using green hydrogen to produce a “drop in” sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), which will be produced using the group's existing Fischer-Tropsch assets. “SAF remains one of the most promising pathways for the hard-to-abate aviation sector to decarbonise in future. “The SAF drop-in offering is an attractive aviation-fuel solution and the market is expected to grow massively in the years to come,” Grobler says, revealing that it is currently refining its “go-to-market” strategy in collaboration with others. He has also announced that a low capital solution has been found to produce Cleaner Fuels 2-compliant diesel at the Natref refinery, in the Fr...

Associations worry import tariff increases will add to rising transport costs

The road transport and freight industries, as well as the Tyre Importers Association of South Africa (Tiasa), are opposing an application brought to the International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (Itac) by domestic tyre manufacturers seeking increases in respect of some import tariffs. Tiasa says there is concern that tariff increases will lead to higher tyre prices. It also notes that local manufacturers cannot meet local demand for tyres. During a webinar hosted by international trade consulting practice XA International Trade Advisors on July 26, Tiasa chairperson Charl de Villiers said the four manufacturers making tyres locally have applied for tariff increases on tyres imported from China across eight tariff codes, asking for percentage increases that range from 8.45% to 69.97% on top of the 25% to 30% import duties paid for normal imports. "The impact of these increases was modelled, with the taxi industry expected to see a 41% increase in the price of tyres, passenger vehicles expected to see a 38% to 40% increase in prices, and truck and bus tyres expected to increase by 17% to 18%," he said. Further, 80% of the 3 200 models of tyres in South Africa are not made in local factories, and two of the four local tyre manufacturers import 100% of their truck and bus tyres. This means that local tyre manufacturers are significant importers of tyres themselves, said De Villiers. South Africa's truck tyre manufacturing capacity is about 600 000 units a year and demand is about 1.2-million to 1.4-million units a year, he added. National Taxi Alliance spokesperson Theo Malele and Road Freight Association (RFA) CEO Gavin Kelly both highlighted that the industries cannot absorb further increases, with Malele highlighting statistics indicating that households use up to 55% of their disposable income for transport. Kelly added RFA estimates indicate that the proposed tyre tariff increases will result in a 6% to 6.3% increase in road freight costs. "We urge government not to allow these increases to be effected and we are strongly opposed to this, which we cannot afford as the taxi industry, nor as a country. Owing to the squeeze on margins, many taxi operators find it difficult to meet monthly obligations and may lose their vehicles. The industry cannot afford such price increases," said Malele. About 80% of goods in South Africa are moved by road, and a key concern for the road freight industry is the lack of information on what is driving this application, especially as South African manufacturers cannot meet demand, highlighted Kelly. "This anti-dumping action is not creating clarity for the industry, nor understanding of the issues behind the application," he said. "Many transporters monitor the depth of tread and condition of tyres on their vehicles to ensure the safety of their drivers and cargoes, especially as many roads in South Africa are not in the condition they should be. The impact of price increases is concerning because tyres are often lost in incidents, such as through damage from a pothole," Kelly highlighted. The road freight industry cannot absorb 17% to 18% increases in the costs of tyres and South Africa must carefully consider the impact of adding further upstream costs to supply chains, he said. Further, De Villiers noted that all tyres sold locally must have secured certificates of compliance and that the tyres imported from China by Tiasa's members compete effectively on a cost-per-kilometre basis with tyre imports from other territories. "Businesses that rely on transport are feeling the pain, including from the fuel price, which has increased from R14.86/ℓ in January to R26.74/ℓ in June. We are deeply concerned about the additional duties the local tyre manufacturers are requesting and their potential impact on businesses and people already struggling," he added. Meanwhile, XA International Trade Advisors CEO and founder Donald MacKay highlighted that the anti-dumping application was...

Joburg aims to partner with IPPs on R26bn electricity investment strategy

The Scenic Drive with Rian

The City of Johannesburg says it plans to partner with independent power producers (IPPs) on a R26-billion electricity investment strategy, which is designed to end load-shedding and place City Power on a more financially and environmentally sustainable footing. The strategy involves a diversification of electricity sources away from Eskom, which currently provides the city with 90% of its power, while also securing City Power's revenue, which was currently threatened by grid defection, theft and the prospect of a “utility death spiral”. Executive Mayor Mpho Phalatse told participants at a two-day energy indaba that the city recognised that it did not have the funding to keep up with the required electricity investment, noting that its entire yearly infrastructure budget was R7.7-billion for power, water, roads and other municipals services. Private-public partnerships were “the most feasible way forward” and the city was, thus, planning to approach the market in the not-too-distant future in a bid to procure cleaner and cheaper electricity for its six-million residents. Phalatse said the legislative and regulatory frameworks presented no “fatal impediments to our plans”, as a municipality was allowed to procure its own electricity, while the Integrated Resource Plan catered for embedded generation. She also noted that generators below 100 MW in size were now allowed to proceed without first having to be licensed by the National Energy Regulator of South Africa. “Against this background, the City of Johannesburg is indeed entering the most exciting energy era in our history. “It is exciting because indications are that the city is positioning itself to become more energy independent, with less reliance on Eskom for our power needs,” Phalatse enthused. City Power chairperson Ambassador Douglas Gibson said the utility itself would seek to transform from a distributor of mostly Eskom electricity into an energy provider, able to supply reliable power in partnership with IPPs and “prosumers”. City Power's four imperatives currently, he added, were to provide reliable supply, make a profit, deliver on the council's strategy and to restructure the business so that it was both forward-looking and able to honour its environmental, social and governance obligations. “To achieve these imperatives, City Power . intends embarking on a journey to inboard alternative energy solutions into our grid systems, primarily through renewable energy technologies. “The aim is to enhance energy security and alleviate the enormous challenges of continuous energy interruptions,” Gibson explained. Acting City Power CEO Tshifularo Mavasha added that the utility was fully aware that an energy transition was under way “whether we like it or not”. “I recognise that our customers have started moving, they are already embracing the energy transition [and many] of our customers are installing solar photovoltaics on their rooftops. “Now here's the thing, at City Power we applaud our customers for doing that and we come here today to say we want to partner with our customers on that journey,” Mavasha said. Environment and Infrastructure Services MMC Michael Sun said that the upcoming request for proposal (RFP) documentation would draw lessons from the indaba and promised that the procurement process would be conducted “honestly, transparently and in the best interests of our residents”. He provided no details on a possible timeframe for the release of the RFP, nor on what or how much electricity the city would be seeking to procure, however. South African Independent Power Producer Association chairperson Thomas Garner outlined a vision for the removal of the billing, tariff and infrastructure obstacles to investment by IPPs and to creating more sustainable and secure electricity supply in the city. Garner also urged City Power to shift its focus from electricity supplier to that of a grid and system operator and to overhaul the tariff structure in such a way a...

Thungela reaps global coal demand rewards despite rail disruptions

JSE- and LSE-listed thermal coal miner Thungela Resources recorded a 601% year-on-year increase in revenue to R26.28-billion in 2021, pushing it to a profit of R6.94-billion, from a loss of R362-million in the prior year. The miner posted headline earnings a share of R66.57 for 2021, compared with a headline loss a share of R5.31 in 2020. It has declared a maiden cash dividend of R18 a share, payable in May. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation increased by 3 389%, from R286-million in 2020 to R9.98-billion in 2021, while adjusted free operating cash flow increased to R3.92-billion in 2021, from a loss of R249-million in 2020. As such, Thungela held R8.66-billion in net cash at the end of 2021, compared with debt of R388-million in 2020. The improvement in its financial performance came on the back of Thungela being buoyed by the benchmark thermal coal price, which strengthened by 90% to $124/t, although the stronger rand offset some of the gains. In addition, the discount to benchmark prices narrowed substantially from 26% in 2020, to 16% in 2021, resulting in higher realised coal prices of $104/t in 2021, up from the $48/t achieved in 2020. Being primarily an exporter, Thungela's revenue was positively impacted on by increased demand for high-quality South African coal. Developing economies in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Vietnam are on a path of recovery, post-Covid-19, and are experiencing an increased demand for energy, prompting those countries to source more coal. Thungela did, however, record a 16% decrease in export sales to 15-million tonnes in 2021, as a result of disruptions on Transnet Freight Rail's (TFR's) operations. CEO July Ndlovu says Thungela is, nevertheless, committed to working with TFR, the government and the industry to resolve the transport issues experienced in 2021 and at the start of this year. “We believe the challenges are transient and have planned our operational performance on a gradual, rather than an immediate recovery in rail performance. This is of national concern given that coal exports constitute one of the primary sources of foreign currency generation for South Africa,” he adds. In terms of health and safety, the miner improved its total recordable case frequency rate to 1.35 in 2021, down from the 1.51 of 2020. However, Thungela recorded a fatality at its Goedehoop operation in June 2021. Meanwhile, the miner's Khwezela colliery suffered a spill of mine-contaminated water into a nearby river system on February 14 as a result of an overflow from a disused shaft, which led into the mouth of the Loskop dam, a distance of about 60 km. “The impact on the ecology was significant; however there were no livelihoods at risk,” says Ndlovu. “We took immediate actions . . . ma[king] water in the river system safe for use as we speak. We are now in the process of developing a longer-term plan to mitigate the impacts on the ecology and return the . . . river system to what it was before this incident,” he says. Once Thungela was alerted to the spill, it immediately implemented an operation to stop the flow and started work with the parks board and Department of Water and Sanitation on rehabilitation procedures. This required Thungela, at its own cost, to release water from the Bronkhorstspruit dam into the Wilge river and the Witbank dam. “We continued to monitor the quality of the water and, within 24 hours of us releasing the water, the quality had [returned] to being safe. “There is aquatic life that is beginning to show itself in the river systems; however, we are conscious of the fact that once [acid water is spilled] aquatic life [is destroyed] in a significant way,” says Ndlovu. Subsequently, Thungela has hired experts to help it develop a plan to bring the natural water system back to its natural form in the future. OUTLOOK For the remainder of this year, Thungela expects a gradual rather than immediate recovery in TFR's performance. It, therefore, p...

Eskom says it needs R23bn more from tariffs in 2021 to remain a going concern

Property Magicians Podcast

State-owned electricity utility Eskom argued on Thursday that it required additional revenue of R23-billion for the upcoming financial year to remain a going concern and told the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) that further tariff increases, beyond the 5.22% already approved for next year, were required to enable it to migrate to financial sustainability. Nersa is currently hosting public hearings as part of its deliberations on how to implement a regulatory clearing account (RCA) balance that had already been approved, as well as how it should respond to supplementary applications by Eskom arising from two recent adverse court rulings. On November 5, the hearings focused exclusively on the implementation plan for the liquidation of the R13.27-billion RCA balance arising from a determination made earlier in the year for the 2019 financial year. The RCA is a claw-back mechanism that is used to adjust the tariff, which is set ahead of time using cost and sales assumptions, to the actual costs and sales that materialised during the period. For the 2019 financial year, Eskom applied to recoup R27-billion and was granted R13.27-billion. Later in the month, the regulator will consider two supplementary applications arising from court rulings relating to the RCA balances approved for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 financial years and the review and setting aside of Nersa’s revenue decision for the 2019 financial year. Eskom is applying for a further R26-billion in RCA balances for the three years, having already been granted R32.6-billion, and R5-billion for disallowed costs in the 2019 revenue determination. In parallel, Eskom is seeking an execution order for the automatic reintroduction of a R23-billion equity injection in line with a July 28 judgment, which found the Nersa acted illegally when it removed a R69-billion government equity injection from Eskom’s allowable revenue. The utility argues that the order should not be negated by Nersa’s appeal, as the regulator had already conceded on the merits and was only disputing whether the court erred in not remitting the decision back to it for implementation. Presenting during the virtual hearings, Eskom GM for regulation Hasha Tlhotlhalemaje indicated that Eskom would not seek to secure all these amounts on April 1, 2021, but that an additional R23-billion was required. She argued that all other levers – including shareholder support, cost cutting, recovery of outstanding debt and illegal payments and a reprioritisation of capital expenditure – had been exhausted, leaving only the lever of tariff increases to facilitate its financial stabilisation. The hearing was confined to the implementation of the R13.27-billion RCA balance, which Tlhotlhalemaje argued should be liquidated in full from April 1, 2021. However, she used the platform to make the case for a larger R23-billion revenue increase, noting that, besides the R13.27-billion balance, there were several other RCA amounts that had not yet been implemented and could be implemented. Even without the implementation of the additional RCA amount, Eskom’s request for the full R13.27-billion to be liquidated next year would translate to an additional 6.5% hike, or an overall increase of about 11.5%. The Nersa panel overseeing the hearings, which are being chaired by fulltime regulatory member for electricity Nhlanhla Gumede, pushed back, however, with several panel members questioning whether the hike being sought would not retard South Africa’s recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic. The panel was also not happy with Eskom conflating outstanding determinations that would flow as a result of recent court cases with the specific decision it needed to make regarding the liquidation of the R13.27-billion RCA balance. Nersa would make its determination in this regard later in the month and would accept written comments from stakeholders up until November 13.

Episode 50: Lessons learned from having your properties being auctioned and rebuilding a bigger portfolio during a recession

In this week's podcast episode, we talk to Dunisani Manganyi, IT expert, full-time real estate investor and mentor about his journey as a real estate investor. Dunisani bought his first property at the age of 23; by the time he was 27 he owned 7 properties. He soon started investing in land and flipping some of that land (selling it at a higher price than he bought it). This was before the 2008 recession, so the market was good, no one had told him about market cycles, so he ended up with a portfolio that was 60% land. When the market crash did come, the South African market felt its effects in 2012 and he'd already quit his job and was a full-time real estate investor. He couldn't sell or develop the land because the value started to drop but he still owed the banks so his expenses were outpacing income, he started using his rental income to pay for his life expenses and soon defaulted on mortgages. He lost 80% of his real estate portfolio and in the podcast, he shares the trauma of watching his properties being auctioned off. He then shares how he worked with his wife, Thabile, using her credit record to rebuild their real estate investment portfolio during the recession and how they ended up refinancing their residential house to build a property that cash flows at R26,000 a month. Dunisani now mentors people on property through, Riches and Beyond, an educational property company.

Subscribe to our RSS feed here. Subscribe or rate us in iTunes. The question that inspired this week's show is one of my favourites: what exactly happens to the money when you buy a share? Who gets it? How do companies deal with shares in their books? We talk about the mechanics of buying a share. We discuss the differences between the primary and secondary markets for shares, where the concept of share buying came from and how shares get from person to person. It's fascinating! Thanks very much for all the great iTunes reviews and messages of support we get every week. It's wonderful to be reminded that our work has a real impact. Cindy van Heerden wins for being a Van Heerden and for writing us a lovely upbeat email. Flip, you guys. Jissie. So much love! I have been binge listening to the Fat Wallet Show the past two weeks! Some episodes I listen to twice because they are just soooo good. Firstly, I am so impressed with the quality of your podcast. I listen to a lot of podcasts, which are mostly American. The quality of sound, content and lekker hosts are important and boy oh boy does your show deliver. I feel happy and a little bit proud that such a top notch show is South African. I am still so clueless about a lot financial topics, but I am slowly learning. So I don't have any questions yet (you are a show about questions after all). I just wanted to say thank you for encouraging us to do the smart thing. I am paying off my crap-credit-card debt and am putting away a R100 each month for my emergency fund until I pay off my debt and can put away more. Also, I just got an increase and instead of buying more shit - I am using it to pay off my debt faster! Yay for finances. It is all I think about since I started listening. I think every and all South Africans should listen to your podcast. I think this is just what South Africa needs - proper education that will help our youth become money-smart. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! PS - Kristia, I love your surname ;) Yours too Simon! Brown like chuckles. PPS - I am a Graphic Designer. Don't know if you've had any of those yet. Wim wins for taking charge of his finances in a very serious way. He already started the process of moving his RA to a cheaper provider, but he's still struggling with that process. Your advice on finding more places to save money has led me to stop my AA contribution of R1,300 for me and my wife. I have adequate cover on my short term insurance. My wife also has car under warranty which includes roadside assistance. That money is going into EE EFT. Thanks Simon, upon checking my car insurance, I realized my premium of R550 on my Toyota bakkie could only pay out R75,000 if stolen - it's an old 2006 model. Even increasing my co-payment to R10,000 only reduced my premium by R100. I decided to take only fire, theft and third-party insurance, saving R250 per month. He made an investment in a cow through Livestock Wealth. I always wanted to be farmer, but wasn't born into farming, so took a fat chance. The CEO was explaining their model at Allan Gray's investment summit. Your explanation is correct, but it also seems there is a monthly maintenance fee of R315. Times 24 (18-24 months to mature to 500kg) adds another R7,560, totalling around R16,000. IF you get selling price of R18,500 you get around R2500 over 2 years gives you 15%. You can actually visit your cow and get picture- im opting out on that one, keeping it strictly business. I will send you a picture of my cow, not naming it though. Dale inspired our topic this week. Could The Fat Wallet explain what happens, exactly, when you buy a share or a portion thereof? Where does that money actually go? If I buy R1,000 of STX40 through EasyEquities, after fees and costs, what happens to that R1,000? Do all 40 companies physically get paid a portion relative to their weighting? Would EasyEquities literally transfer R240 to Naspers, for example? If they do – how and where does Naspers account for that “income”? Is there an item “income from sale of shares” on a financial statement somewhere? I don't actually read financial statements (which is why I buy ETFs in the 1st place, because I don't care to), so maybe it is there, and this is a really obvious question? And what happens the opposite way around, i.e. if I sell R1,000 of STX40? Home buying feedback Deen says I should ask for a drone shot of the unit I'd like to buy to get an idea of freeway access and the surrounding areas. Debt Lady is in a financial pickle and wonders if she should sell her house. I owe in total of R134,000 credit cards, overdraft and loans. I take home R26,700 per month and I am drowning. I'm thinking of starting afresh by selling my house and take the profits and clear my debts. Would you ever advise a person to do that? After I paid everything I am left with R1,200 which should carry me through the month. It doesn't and I still have to pay rates and buy food. It dawns on me when you talk about property that I didn't properly plan buying this house. It's inside an estate where I'm paying R2,600 for two levies. I was excited about the increase I got in a new company. I bought a new car and got a new house and now it's taking its toll on me. I keep on applying for loans to pay my debt. Where do I start as I know I need freedom from this debt? Hamster says buying a home can be a good financial decision, not just a lifestyle decision. He re-shared the Rolling Alpha buy vs rent calculator. It can be a great financial decision to buy rather than rent, as long as you apply (and stick to) a few rules, like staying in it for at least 8 years to counter the negative financial effect of having to have paid all the transfer-, financing- and lawyer fees, pay it off ahead of schedule. Some time in the future, you'll have paid off your bond and will be living very cheaply. By that time rent will have increased (at least with inflation) to enormous amounts. Having a long-term view on property-ownership is a lot like having a long-term view on your investments. Lastly, the freedom one has when owning a property is amazing. The day before we moved into our house, I had the garage doors automated, installed an automated sprinkler system in the garden and had a plumber come out to install a "retrofit" solar panel on our roof to assist the geyser with heating the water (our electricity bill for a family of 3 is only R500 per month). I also installed thermal insulation in the ceiling myself and we're next going to convert the stove hob from electricity to gas. You can't do these alterations (most of them we did to bring down our long-term cost of living and energy-footprint) when you're renting. The same goes for painting the rooms the colours you like, putting up (or taking down) shelving where you want, etc. I love the point about doing alterations to reduce costs in the future, as opposed to cosmetic alterations. He explains the eight-year breakeven point as follows: When you purchase a house, the general rule is that you want to be sure you'll be in the same home for at least eight years. Otherwise, you're going to take a hit financially. Why? The first hit is your closing costs. Every time you go through closing — buying and selling — money hits the table. This can easily add up to thousands. Limiting how often you have to pay that kind of money is always a good idea. So extrapolating the cost of closing's impact on your return on investment, you'll need around eight years to make up for the money you had to spend now, so that you break even with someone who rented instead. As rent goes up over time, a tenant will eventually pay more than a home owner, the break-even point typically lies about eight years into the future (assuming buying and renting the exact same property). You take a second hit when you look at your bond statement to see exactly where your monthly payments are going. The way bonds are structured, you pay much more interest in the first few years you own a house. Usually, it isn't until you're about seven or so years into paying down your bond that you've made enough progress on the principal to make it a better deal than paying rent each month. Note: When you take out a bond, you are paying an interest rate on what you owe. So, in the first year, when the principal is highest, the interest you need to pay is also the highest. However, since the monthly payment is the same throughout the term of the loan (at least with a fixed rate bond), more of the payment will be used to cover the interest payments, meaning less is going towards the principal. As your principal goes down, your interest payments will go down, leaving more of your money to go towards the principal, so it snowballs nicely. This is one way of getting ahead of the eight-year R.O.T. If you can wait at least eight years before selling again, you're in a better position to be ahead of the game, especially if you bought less house than you can afford and making extra payments into the bond. To explain it a little differently, if you keep buying a house, live in it and sell it again every eight years, you're no better off than if you just rented. Any equity you would've built up in the property plus money saved in the long run on not paying for rent escalations, is cancelled out by the costs incurred when buying and selling. Even worse, if you buy and sell in fewer than eight-year intervals, you would definitely have been better off renting!

Die Rolle endogener und intravenös verabreichter Knochenmarkszellen im linksventrikulären Remodeling nach Myokardinfarkt

The therapeutic potential of systemically or locally injected bone marrow cells (BMC) or mesenchymal stem cells in myocardial infarction (MI) is a very controversial issue. Using human placental alkaline phosphatase (hPLAP) as a genetic marker for cell tracking, we examined the therapeutic efficacy and the homing of intravenously administered, hPLAP labeled cells in marker tolerant, immunocompetent rats after induction of MI. The marker enzyme hPLAP provides superb histological detection quality in paraffin and plastic sections. The influx of bone marrow-derived cells during tissue repair was monitored in wild-type inbred Fischer 344 rats reconstituted with bone marrow from transgenic F344 rats expressing hPLAP under the control of the ubiquitous R26 promoter. Four months post-MI, we found that the mesenchymal cells in the scar tissue were almost exclusively of local origin. Intravenous administration of 1x107 BMC from hPLAP transgenic donors administered 1 week post-MI profoundly reduced the infiltration of the infarction site by bone marrow-derived cells, and also the infarction area. No differentiation of endogenous nor exogenous BMCs was observed. To examine the homing of intravenous hPLAP labeled BMC in MI we established a background-free syngeneic model for long-term histological cell tracking in the absence of immune-mediated rejection of labeled cells in immunocompetent animals. Skin grafts showed that neonatal exposure of wild-type F344 rats to hPLAP transgenic F344 cells results in lifelong tolerance to hPLAP expressing tissues and cells. Using this model of neonatally tolerized marker tolerant rats, we showed that only very few hPLAP labeled BMC injected intravenously one week post-MI homed to the infarction site. Therefore, we hypothesize that the beneficial effect of intravenous BMC on left ventricular remodeling after MI is caused by systemic immunomodulation.

Marker tolerant, immunocompetent animals as a new tool for regenerative medicine and long-term cell tracking

Background: Immune- mediated rejection of labeled cells is a general problem in transplantation studies using cells labeled with any immunogenic marker, and also in gene therapy protocols. The aim of this study was to establish a syngeneic model for long-term histological cell tracking in the absence of immune-mediated rejection of labeled cells in immunocompetent animals. We used inbred transgenic Fischer 344 rats expressing human placental alkaline phosphatase (hPLAP) under the control of the ubiquitous R26 promoter for this study. hPLAP is an excellent marker enzyme, providing superb histological detection quality in paraffin and plastic sections. Results: Transplantation of cells from hPLAP transgenic (hPLAP-tg) F344 rats into wild-type ( WT) F344 recipients failed because of immune-mediated rejection. Here we show that this problem can be overcome by inducing tolerance to the marker gene by transplantation of bone marrow from hPLAP-tg F344 rats into WT F344 hosts after lethal irradiation, or by neonatal exposure of WT F344 rats to hPLAP-tg F344 cells. As proof-of-principle, we injected bone marrow cells (BMC) from hPLAP-tg rats into the knee joint of marker tolerant, bone marrow-transplanted WT rats, and found successful engraftment and differentiation of donor cells. In addition, hPLAP-tg BMC injected intravenously in neonatally tolerized WT F344 hosts could be traced in lymph nodes, 2 months post-injection. Conclusion: In combination with the excellent marker hPLAP, marker tolerant animals may open up new perspectives for all experiments requiring long-term histological tracking of genetically labeled cells.

Spectral diffusion and 14N quadrupole splittings in absorption detected magnetic resonance hole burning spectra of photosynthetic reaction centers

Zero field absorption detected magnetic resonance hole burning measurements were performed on photosynthetic reaction centers of the bacteria Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 and Rhodopseudomonas viridis. Extrapolation to zero microwave power yielded pseudohomogeneous linewidths of 2.0 MHz for Rhodopseudomonas viridis, 1.0 and 0.9 MHz for the protonated forms of Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 with and without monomer bacteriochlorophyll exchanged, and 0.25 MHz as an upper limit for fully deuterated reaction centers of Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26. The measured linewidths were interpreted as being due to unresolved hyperfine interaction between the nuclear spins and the triplet electron spin, the line shape being determined by spectral diffusion among the nuclei. The difference in linewidths between Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 and Rhodopseudomonas viridis is then explained by triplet delocalization on the special pair in the former, and localization on one dimer half on the latter. In the fully deuterated sample, four quadrupole satellites were observed in the hole spectra arising from the eight 14N nitrogens in the special pair. The quadrupole parameters seem to be very similar for all nitrogens and were determined to =1.25±0.1 MHz and =0.9±0.1 MHz.

Pigments of borohydride-treated reaction centers of Rhodobacter sphaeroides R 26 and Rhodopseudomonas viridis were analyzed by HPLC with polychromatic detection. In both species, pigment composition and contents were unchanged. Reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 were prepared in which bacteriochlorophylls (BA,B) and bacteriopheophytins (HA,B) were exchanged with their potential borohydride products reduced at C-31. [3-Hydroxyethyl]-BChl a exchanges selectively into the BA,B pockets, and 31-OH-BPh a to the HA,B pockets. Stable reaction centers are obtained in both cases. A comparison of the absorption and circular dichroism spectra of reaction centers after exchange with 31-OH pigments, and of borohydride-modified reaction centers, reveal distinct differences. It is concluded that during borohydride reduction none of the pigments is chemically modified or extracted from the reaction centers.

Incubation of photosynthetic reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 with exogenous 132-OH-bacteriochlorophyll ap or aGG according to Scheer et al. (1987) results in the exchange of endogenous bacteriochlorophyll ap. The exchange amounts to less-than-or-equals, slant 50% according to HPLC analysis, corresponding to a complete replacement of the ‘monomeric’ bacteriochlorophylls, bm and bl, by exogenous pigment. The absorption spectra show small, but distinct changes in the Qx-region of the bacteriochlorophylls, and bleaching of the modified reaction centers is retained. The corresponding binding sites must be accessible from the exterior, and allow for the introduction of a polar residue at C-132. This is supported by the observation of side reactions of the endogenous ‘monomeric’ bacteriochlorophylls within the reaction center pigments, e.g. epimerization and hydroxylation at C-132.
