  3. Power Pool Overview (1) • SAPP was set up in August 1995 • Main objectives: • Provide forum for the development of a world class, robust, safe, efficient, reliable and stable interconnected electrical system in Southern African region. • Optimise the use of available energy resources in the Southern African region and support one another during emergencies. • Key activities undertaken so far: • Established the short-term energy market (STEM) in April 2001. • Completed SAPP telecommunications study in 2001 with implementation of the recommendations following in 2005/6. • Frequency relaxation project completed & implemented in 2003. • Transmission wheeling tariffs implemented in phases from January 2003 to January 2006. • Quality of supply database implementation in progress • Interconnectors: Zimbabwe-Botswana-South Africa (1995), South Africa-Swaziland-Mozambique (2001), Mozambique-Zimbabwe (1997), Namibia-South Africa (2002), Namibia-Zambia (2006).

  4. Power Pool Overview (2) • Next key activities planned: • Development and implementation of the SAPP competitive electricity market: Jan 2004 to Dec 2007. • Transmission pricing policy, ancillary services market development and implementation procedures: May 2005 to Feb 2007. • Development of a balancing mechanism: June 2007 • Implementation of the SAPP priority generation & transmission projects: From Jan 2006
