• Energy Landscape of SA
• Overview of NCPC-SA
• The Industrial Energy Efficiency Project- Phase I and II
• The IEE Approach
• Outcomes and Impacts of IEE in SA
Presentation Points

4. Snapshot of SA Energy Landscape
Pre- 2008
• Electricity was cheap bet 10-30c
• Avg tariff incr per annum was
around 5.4% bet 2000-2008
• Energy - 15-20% safety margin
• Energy services sector was small
• Regulatory environment for energy
was only just starting to be
discussed
Post 2008- Current
• Price of electricity has risen by over
300%
• Safety margins have decreased
considerably having dropped<5%
• Energy services sector has grown to
meet market demand
• Regulatory environment
consistently strengthening and
gaining traction with new acts,
proposed penalties and usage
reporting requirements

Programme of the Department of
Trade and Industry (the dti)
Hosted by the Council for Scientific
and Industrial Research (CSIR)
The National Cleaner Production Centre of
South Africa (NCPC-SA) enhances South
African industry’s efforts to improve
competitiveness and reduce its
environmental footprint through the
implementation of resource efficiency and
cleaner production (RECP) methodologies.
Areas of expertise and flagship projects:
Industrial Energy Efficiency Project
Industrial Water Efficiency Project
Life Cycle Management
Industrial Symbiosis

Common Industry Concerns
• Energy costs (Electricity and other)
• Production costs
• Decrease in profitability
• Exposure to energy security related risks
• Compliance to environmental legislation(pending and future)
• Mitigated risk or avoidance of environmental penalties
• Loss of energy efficiency gains
• Continuity of energy efficiency knowledge

• Targeted focus on energy reduction of one or
more specific SEU’s in the organisation, eg.
pump steam, fans, motors, compressed air
• Can be done through a facilitated assessment
or through a training approach
• Includes baselining, data measurement and
analysis and recommendations for optimisation
of system.

13. EnMS allows you to :
Interrogate:
• How much energy are you using?
• Where are you using it? Which are
significant energy users?
• What is driving this use?
• Who is influencing its use?
• Is an energy audit required – focus it?
• Energy System Optimization (ESO)
• Renewable energy options
• Are there legal or other requirements?
• Develop baseline & energy performance
indicators
• Set objectives and targets
• Draft action plans to meet objectives
and targets
Incorporate energy efficiency into:
• Organizational strategy
• Environmental Policy
• Maintenance Procedures
• Procurement processes
• Design processes
• Operational control
• Organizational culture
• Everyday business practices

14. www.iee-sa.co.za
Structured approach to managing energy usage and consumption.
Cost reduction through identification of opportunities and energy performance improvement
Reduced greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions and carbon footprint.
Compliance for future voluntary/mandatory energy efficiency targets or GHG emission reduction
legislation.
More informed decision-making processes(system design, procurement through to operations)
Increased energy awareness among staff members at all levels.
Structured approach to energy efficiency best practice methodologies
Improved corporate image and credibility with stakeholders and customers
Ability to identify risks thereby enhancing security of energy supply
Improved operational efficiencies and maintenance practices
Increased knowledge of equipment efficiencies
Business benefits of ISO 50001 EnMS (with or without certification)

To come back to those 2 questions…
1.) What does energy make up as a % of your resource usage costs?
Energy makes up between 40-90% of resource usage costs in a company and at
least 30% of total operational costs
2.) What are the key ‘enigmas’ within your organization?
Energy Costs, Production Costs, Profitability, Energy Security, Environmental
Compliance or Avoidance of Environmental Penalties, Loss of Energy Efficiency
Gains, Knowledge Retainment …etc.
