The Energy Efficiency Project Support Unit

4 weeks ago

Johannesburg, Gauteng, Saudi Arabia SANEDI Full time

Background of Programme

South Africa's Greenhouse Gas GHG emissions are high, in both absolute and per capita terms and this is mainly due to a primarily coal-based electricity supply industry, combined with a prevalent inefficient use of energy across many sectors. Moreover, the country is experiencing electricity supply shortages and has a high unemployment rate.
Public infrastructure, such as buildings, public lighting and water/ waste-water treatment plants, owned by and/or managed by municipalities, provinces, national government and StateOwned Entities SOEs, contribute to the country's GHG emissions. Despite potential financial savings, and energy and emission reductions that could be achieved through the implementation of demand-side energy efficiency interventions, uptake and implementation to
date has been limited. This is due to a range of factors including capacity and resource
constraints, data shortages, government procurement complexities, and access to finance.

To address these challenges and to fast track the large-scale roll out of energy efficiency
across public institutions, the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy DMRE, have developed the Energy Efficiency in Public Buildings and Infrastructure Programme EEPBIP.

The objective of the EEPBIP, which commenced in 2019, is to reduce GHG emissions in South Africa by catalysing an energy efficiency transformation within the public-sector environment.
This will be achieved through the provision of appropriate technical and financial support, and a programmatic approach to identifying, developing, financing and implementing energy efficiency interventions in a consistent and replicable manner.

Energy Efficiency projects developed through the EEPBIP will be implemented by Energy Service Companies ESCOs via an Energy Performance Contracting EnPC model with public sector entities.
Through funding from the Mitigation Action Facility, combined with Technical Assistance from the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GIZ GmbH, the South African
National Energy Development Institute SANEDI has been appointed to coordinate the Energy Efficiency Project Support Unit EEPSU for the EEPBIP. The role of the EEPSU will be to support public sector institutions in identifying and developing bankable energy efficiency projects that can be tendered to ESCOs under an EnPC model.
