Private and confidential Section 2 SA Renewables Market
SA Renewables Sector Key points Introduction SA is presently one of the world‟s most exciting renewables markets, adopting renewables late but with a high growth IRP 2010 has rate significantly increased disclosure of SA’s IRP 2010 is the SA Government‟s 20 year sector master-plan, issued for public consultation (October 2010); Cabinet material power approved on 16th March 2011 and promulgated on 6th May 2011. challenges 42% (17.8 GW) of new generation in IRP 2010 is proposed to come from renewable energy - 8.4 GW from solar PV, 1 GW CSP and 8.4 GW will come from wind; Standard Bank believes new build wind will achieve SA grid parity with the blended wholesale tariff by 2014/2015 and new build solar may achieve grid parity by 2018/2019. NT is expected to introduce carbon taxes by 2012, wherein the exposure of the blended Eskom portfolio exposure is an additional R0.12 – R0.14 kWh (SB calculations)). This will further boost renewable energy (no CO2 charge) competitiveness within SA. The IPP REFIT was the planned renewables route to market. This has been replaced by the IPP Procurements Programme Procurements („‟IPPPP’‟), which was released on 3 August 2011 and asks for 3,725 MW of which 91% relates to Wind and Solar. This Programme, which Programme relates to renewable energy IPP‟s and uses a revised tariff as a cap, with competitive price bidding taking was released on 3 August 2011, relates place up to the cap to renewable energy IPP’s and uses revised tariffs as a Comments on the First Bid Submission Phase are due 31 August 2011 with First Bid Submission due 4 November 2011. cap, for a Selection of preferred bidders is scheduled to take place on 25 November 2011, with the projects reaching financial close competitive bidding on 19 June 2011. Phases 2 – 5 follows accordingly. process. Bidders for the First Submission Phase should be capable of beginning commercial operation by June 2014, with any other Submission Phase capable of beginning commercial operation no later than end 2016

IRP 2010 - Summary 7 Key points Overview Consultation Process The promulgated IRP2010 features the below energy mix The consultation process that ensued after the publishing IRP2010 is a targets for 2030, in terms of new build: of the draft IRP2010 allowed for stakeholders to address landmark public Nuclear 23% their concerns and make suggestions (479 submissions policy document received). The below two graphs depict the major that will change the Coal 15% positive impact that the process had on renewables: SA energy landscape Imported hydro 6% After consultation process OCGT for peaking 9% Imported gas 6%, and Renewables 42% or 17,800MW, of which: – PV: 8,400MW – Wind: 8,400MW – CSP: 1,000MW In context IRP2010 has hugely Changes to the IRP2010 include: increased SA’s The increased allocation of Renewables to the overall projected Pre- consultation process renewables total – to energy mix plan for the 20 year period 17.8 GW over 20 The defined technology split of the Renewables years allocation. The further technology split and allocation of solar into PV and CSP Reduction in planned initial allocations of Peak-OCGT and an increase in Natural Gas-Fired CCGT
Tariffs - Grid Parity is nearing 8 Key points Tariff Paths: IRP 2010 vs. Medupi/Kusile vs. Solar PV vs. Wind 4.5 Eskom National Blended Tariff (as per Policy-Adjusted Scenario) + Carbon SA electricity tariffs Tax are increasing at a 4.0 Eskom National Blended Tariff (as per fast rate from a low Policy-Adjusted Scenario) base 3.5 Onshore Wind - IPP Procurement 3.0 Programme (Phase 1 Tariff Cap) - Inflation at 2% for Opex 2.5 Kusile + Enviromental Levy + Carbon Tax 2.0 Kusile + Enviromental Levy Note the central IRP 1.5 projections exclude Medupi + Enviromental Levy + Carbon 1.0 Tax the introduction of Carbon Taxes (dealt with as a scenario 0.5 Medupi + Enviromental Levy although scheduled to be imposed from 0.0 2012) Solar PV / CSP - IPP Procurement 2010 2012 2014 2016 2018 2020 2022 2024 2026 2028 2030 Programme (Phase 1 Tariff Cap) - Inflation at 2% for Opex The YELLOW line is the Policy-Adjusted Scenario („‟PAS’‟) from IRP 2010 (nominal money). The RED line is the PAS from IRP 2010 (nominal money), plus a potential price increase resulting from the proposed carbon tax The GREEN and BROWN lines are potential tariff paths for Medupi/Kusile (calculated from public information), calculated with and without carbon taxes. The costs of each project are highly material in terms of Eskom‟s assets and lead to Eskom envisaging two further 25% tariff increases over the 2013-2015 period, before inflationary increases are expected The PURPLE line is the wind IPPPP Price cap line indexed at 2% p.a. The BLUE line is the PV / CSP IPPPP price cap line indexed at 2% p.a. Clearly, in the medium to long-term, Wind and Solar PV are set to become highly competitive in the SA energy space. We assume that future IPPPP price caps will be reduced in line with future equipment price trends
What will underpin IRP tariff increases? Key points Bank/Utility Credit Support as a Percentage of Country 2010 GDP 90.0% 81.1% Note: The bailouts of financial The magnitude of Bailout % of 2010 Country GDP 80.0% institutions in the UK, USA and the support of Eskom - 16.9% of 70.0% Ireland are reflected from 2008 – 2010 GDP shows the 2010, while the other statistic 60.0% importance of the represents the funding/credit SA power sector 50.0% support by SA Govt of Eskom. 40.0% The Irish bailout reflects the recent November 2010 bailout 30.0% 16.9% The bailouts represent 81.1%, 5%, 20.0% 8.1% and 16.9% of the 2010 GDP‟s 8.1% 10.0% 5.0% of Ireland, the USA, the UK and 0.0% South Africa respectively Ireland USA UK Eskom UK , USA, Ireland and Eskom Bailouts 2008 – 2010 Eskom’s loans are Eskom is a 100% State owned Enterprise. Under duress to fund its massive new build programme until tariff increases make its intended to be financial position sustainable, Eskom has been provided with massive financial support from the SA Government serviced from increased tariffs Maximum R 350bn of loan guarantees + R[60-80]bn of shareholder loans / equity = R[410-430]bn (USD 59-61bn) We have compared the size of Eskom‟s “support” (total loan guarantees and shareholder loans) with the “banking bail outs” of USA, UK and Ireland which are the nearest global precedents. Eskom‟s total support (R430bn) represents 16.9% of 2010 SA GDP. This is higher than the equivalent banking bail-outs for their 2010 economy – for the USA (5%) and the UK (8.1%), but not for Ireland (81.1% - incl. Nov 2010 Bailout) The SA Government has stated that tariffs have to increase in order for the loan guarantees not to be called. This issue is supplemental to DOE‟s IRP 2010 price path (previous slide), and effectively calls upon the independent regulator (NERSA) to approve future tariff increases, which may be increased by the reimbursement of carbon taxes paid by Eskom to its upstream suppliers (coal miners)

Grid Connection 15 Key points Overview If the Bidder intends to connect to the Transmission System, the Grid Provider will be NTC. Non-negotiability of Connection Agreement i.e. If the Bidder intends to connect to a Distribution System, the Grid Provider will either be the “Distribution” Transmission business unit of Eskom, or a municipality, depending on the location of the point of connection Agreement / Distribution Shallow Connection Works: Agreements Grid Provider 1 undertakes the connection works Transmission / Distribution Agreements to be concluded prior to Grid Connection Options Bidder Self Build 2 or simultaneously for shallow connection works and transfer to Grid Provider with the conclusion of the PPA Bidder Self Build 3 and Bidder retains ownership Deep Connection Works: – The Department will provide clarification to the Bidders in relation to the cost of and process for undertaking "deep connection" by way of a Briefing Note to be issued by the Department during the IPP Procurement Programme If a number of Projects all intend to connect to a common substation, and the available capacity of the substation is insufficient to accommodate all of the Projects, the DoE will comparatively rank these bids against each other and the highest ranking bids will be awarded preferred bidder status

Would PV bidders want to contract at a price that will almost certainly Capped tariffs seen as enabling equity investments reduce in 300 days? Scope of pricing differentials and BAFOs (CSP?)
