Global South- South Development Expo 2013
A presentation from Solution forum 1 by UNEP
Solution Forum 1 will present innovative Southern projects that are contributing substantial and tangible benefi ts to the environment as well as to economic development, decent job creation and poverty eradication at the global, regional and national levels.The solutions highlighted have been selected from a diverse spectrum of environment-related areas, such as energy, chemicals, sustainable consumption and production, and integrated green economy policy assessment.
1. South-South Collaboration on Feed
in Tariff in Cogeneration – Combined
Heat and Power (CHP)

2. Attractive Prices (Feed-in-Tariffs, FiTs) for
Cogenerated Electricity Key to Mauritius
Success
Power Generation

Other IPPs
(49%)
Sugar
Industry
(51%)
Cogeneration or Combined Heat & Power (CHP) produces both heat and
electricity from same fuel (in Mauritius, bagasse – biomass by-product of sugar
production) thus reduces prices & increases competitiveness
Attractive prices (quasi Feed-in Tariffs, FiTs) for cogenerated electricity - sugar
industry-based cogeneration accounts for >50% of total national electricity
generation
Sales of electricity increased revenue stream to sugar sector (+carbon benefits)
Lessons learned used in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Malawi and wider
African region
