People as Infrastructure Presentation Mind Map by David Lipschitz at the Sub-Sahara Energy Conference in 2015
![People as Infrastructure
Sub-Sahara Energy Conference
David Lipschitz
Localization What is it?
Local content
Local manufacturing
The entire value
chain
The solar value chain
Including R&D
Production
IFI
Institutional
Financial
Integration
Jobs
Roof top PV
Jobs because
of electricity
What do we already
have in Africa?
Resources
Minerals
Sun & Wind
Darius "5 kWh per day and 20%
capacity factor in parts of Africa"
and half a ton of wood fuel per
household per annum
Eg BURN Manufacturing sold
100,000 stoves so far, and now making 10,000 stoves a month
Mobile money a winning recipe
for customer payments
Financial
Local equity
Conferences
Mainly technical
Eg tracks on
PV
Wind
CSP
Strategy
Policy
Biogas
Localization
Employment opportunities
in energy creation
Me as a case study
SEI, NABCEP, NEC Article 690, insured,
reverse feed solved in 1999
My story
Also my house as a
laboratory and experiment
WTMOR
Load shedding and what
we can do about it
Other case studies
Tsumkwe
Hospital
Sterilized equipment
Refrigerated medicine
Extending the power that is
available at low cost
Improving access to
(clean) energy
What is missing?
People
The kinds of people Africa
has vs what established
fossil fuel grids need
What skills do we
already have?
Skills for
The waste economy
And waste to energy
What qualifications can
we get quickly?
SARETEC training centre for ops of PV
and wind plants, get qualified
GIZ & SANEDI in partnership
building the centre
A national centre that trains
people in RE specialization a
Naim Rasool
Buy in of essential,
otherwise people have
skills and are not employed
QCTO Process
SAQA
NSF
National Skills Fund
Wind turbine
technicians
Very highly skilled
Including fire fighting
Rocket science
Need lower skills people that can
use Africa's skills base
Not rocket science
PV, SWH, etc
South African government sponsored
higher education training
FET colleges
SAREDI business
incubator based in Atlantis
SETA
Bridging skills
gaps quickly
Energy and
environment fund
(EEP)
Wim Jonker
And Darius
Provide funding to private sector
companies that want to start a
project in skills development
[CSFs to make it happen]
53,000 households have benefitted
from improved access, 61 projects
out of 200 completed
26,000 tons carbon reductions
from 1/2 MW only, eg because of
lower wood burning
Saved 27,000 MWh through
promotion of EE technologies
Hand holding
project developers
Impacts
On local skills creation, local job
creation, environmental protection,
changing the market space
Knowledge management, lessons
learned, collaboration with other
initiatives, scaling up if EEP projects
How can the impact be
increased and sustained
Lessons learnt
Early stage
support essential
Be prepared for grid
reaching location
Grid encroachment
Eg a mini grid can be
prepared to feed a big grid
Must have a business model,
revenue collection, and how to
sustain the business
Commitment of project developer key
factor in project success
How do you identify a
motivated project developer?Policy environment can
make or break a project
The funding provides a
learning laboratory
A challenge fund
Where organizations apply for funding
through a competition basis
Requires co-funding, i.e. Own
finance of 10% early stage to 90%
ready to go to market
Education
Accredited curriculums that
serve the RE industry
Eg the RE
centre at
SANEDI
Undergrad & postgrad
NQF levels
What basic skills can we get quickly
Or what basic level of skills do we need?
Maths, science
"Cow" case study
Mr Linus Mofor UNECA senior
expert on energy and climate
change, Cameroon
Farmer with two cows who now makes gas for
cooking, light, and chopping food for the cows, plus
cow manure used in veg patch and veg is sold, a
complete permaculture circle
Some of the segments of the value
chain are naturally localized
Capacity building
Employment
Employment
because of
electricity
MOOCs
And other online services
And tools
Climatescope
Solar Energy Goals
Gaps
People
Internal to the RE industry
Because of the
RE industry
What is the critical human element that
makes the systems work?
Sociologists needed as
well as engineers & scientists
What sorts of innovation can African people
do, what are they good at, what innovation are
they (we) doing already?
Competence
Existing technology
Do we have the information and
the data that we need to make
the project happen?
Do we need
"the projects"?
Basic needs
for a project
Resource
Wind or Sun
People
Connection to the grid
Coordination
between companies
We have to
work together
Eg 10 providers selling to Sishen
mine in the Northern Cape
Recruitment
companies
Do graduates have the right
skills for RE power plants?
Link skills to
aspirations
Competencies
SAIREC2015 Skills Dev Conference
Skills Dev debate 5th October 2015
Why only a limited number of
countries in Africa?
How to provide
more training?
How to involve
government more](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/peopleasinfrastructuresub-saharaenergyconferencedavidlipschitz-180316184452/85/People-as-Infrastructure-1-320.jpg)
