  2. Presentation Outline • Purpose • NDPW Energy Efficiency Programme • Specifications Adjusted to Energy Savings Measures • General Progress • Projects Implemented Through IDT (background and scope) • Summary of Audited / Completed Projects • Annual Energy Savings per Province • Personnel employed by service providers per Province • Challenges on Projects Implemented through IDT • Impact at Luthuli Museum • Conclusion

  3. Purpose To apprise the DPW Portfolio Committee on the progress relevant to: Energy Efficiency Improvements effected in Government Buildings under the Custodianship of the NDPW by effecting: Shared Savings Model Retrofitting Projects Behavioral Changes

  4. NDPW Energy Efficiency Programme Background • The Department formed Energy Efficiency task team (EETT) on 14th February 2008. Purpose was to ensure a co-ordinated energy programme in State-owned buildings. • Formulated Energy Code of Conduct for all buildings under the custodianship of National Department of Public Works (NDPW) for implementation by National Government Departments using state owned and leased buildings for occupants to contribute to conservation of energy.

  5. Specifications Adjusted to Energy Savings Measures • Building Fabric • Building Design for Orientation to gain Solar Energy heat in winter and shade solar heat in summer months • Installation of suitable glazing for solar interactions with building facades • Installation of appropriate shading devices essential • Installation of appropriate insulations in strategic locations • Insulate hot water pipes to save energy • Harvesting sun and wind energy by solar geyser, natural cross ventilation for rooms ventilation

  6. Progress • From 1997 Ndpw implemented shared energy contracts in 4 Regions with shared ratio (Pretoria 50:50, Cape Town 60:40, Johannesburg 60:40,Bloemfontein 60:40). • The energy audit and retrofit for Pretoria started in 2003 to 2010 on approximately 104 sites and derived savings of 1,147,608kw/h and R 311,973,659. over this period. The contract was extended to 2020 and the savings achieved to date is 101,770,824kw/h and R36,203,787.00 • Johannesburg Regional Office started energy audits from 2000 to 2010 on 24 sites comprising of 600 buildings with the subsequent energy savings of R 46,629,107.00 and 108,641,210.00kw/h. The Contract expired on 15th December 2011. • Bloemfontein Regional Office initiated energy audits from 2003 to 2010 on 15 sites comprising of 375 buildings with the subsequent energy savings of R 26,372,777.28 and 55,973,806 kw/h. The Contract expired on 15th December 2011. • Cape Town Regional Office started energy audits from 1997 to 2009 on 39 sites with the subsequent total energy savings of R 45,582,418.00 and 269,502,386 KW/h. Contract expired February 2009. A new contract was awarded in 2011 and the savings to date achieved is 1,997,673kw/h and R7,116,241.51.

  7. Progress (Cont.) • NT in 2008/9 allocated R20m Retrofitting measures implemented in Pretoria Regional Office - covered 22 sites comprising of 1,981 buildings. • Project was completed in March 2009 on budget with annual saving of R4.9m,. • The project was lighting retrofits of 53,026 luminaries (T5) in 1,981 buildings in Pretoria Area which saved 3,177.66KW and 13.88 GW/h of electricity. • An allocation of R35m for 2009/10 retrofitted 17 sites comprising of 1206 buildings, including Union Building with total power saving of 3,473.30kw/h, annual saving of 36.41Gw/h and saving R8,202,161.64. The project also constituted lighting retrofits of 48,856 luminaries at a cost of R33,6 million including the replacement of electricity with excess steam in Zonderwater Prison and optimisation of HVAC at Union Building.

  8. Progress (Cont.) • In 2011 - Shared Energy Contractor appointed in the following Regions : Cape Town, Durban, Polokwane and Mmabatho. The energy savings have not been realised in Durban, Polokwane and Mmabatho to date except Cape Town whereby energy saving to date is report in page 4 above. ( In Implementation) Behavioural Changes Implemented • Inter Departmental Task team on Energy decided in August 2010 that Behavioural Change on saving energy in Public Buildings was required. • The SAVE IT Energy Efficiency Campaign was implemented by GCIS in collaboration with DPW from 19th January 2011 to 17th March 2011. • Campaign targeted to save 10% on energy consumption on all Public Buildings • All Dpw Regional Offices, and User Departments were educated accordingly – series of workshops held.

  9. Projects Implemented Through IDT • Budget of R75m and R70m for 2010/11 and 2011/12 respectively. • The National Department of Public Works (NDPW) appointed the Independent Development Trust (IDT) to implement the Energy Efficiency Programme (EEP). The programme was aimed at reducing the electricity consumption at selected NDPW facilities through a targeted energy efficiency intervention. The National Department of Public works identified 120 facilities [Eastern Cape (60), Mpumalanga (30) and Northern Cape (30)] for this particular implementation. The programme was undertaken over two financial years i.e. FY 2010/2011 and FY 2011/2012.

  10. Projects Implemented Through IDT (Cont.) • The Independent Development Trust was also appointed by the National Department of Public Works (NDPW) as an implementing agent for the implementation of the Green Building Programme on selected State Owned Buildings in the Kwa-Zulu Natal Province for the COP17. The Luthuli Museum building was selected to be showcased during the period of the COP17 International Conference proceedings of the countries Green Building Programme. The programme was undertaken over one financial year i.e. FY 2011/2012.

  11. Scope of Work on Projects Implemented Through IDT • The energy efficiency intervention at the 120 facilities situated in the three (3) provinces, focused primarily on lighting and remote metering at various state-owned facilities. • The scope of work at the Luthuli Museum included various interventions ranging from water conservation, electrical and mechanical energy savings and other greening initiatives.

  12. Summary of Audited / Completed Projects Note: The total value of the projects are R127m for the FY 2010/2011 and FY 2011/2012 combined

  13. Annual Energy Savings per Province Assumptions: 1. The hours of operation of each facility are different, for this programme the operational hours was kept at 12 hours per day, and 365 days was used to determine the Annual energy savings. 2. The rate/ tariff of 40c per kWh was used to calculate Annual Energy savings’ cost

  14. Personnel employed by service providers per Province

  15. Challenges on Projects Implemented through IDT

  16. Impact at Luthuli Museum • The impact areas identified and installations that were completed accordingly were: • Rewiring of the Electricity Distribution System, HVAC enhancements, Lighting enhancements , Solar PV and Switching Controls • Water Efficiency Devices and Water Heating • Passive Energy Controls • Automated Remote Metering Systems • The most important element other than the savings and reduced carbon footprint created at the museum, was the excellent exposure of the benefits of energy efficiency interventions to both the young and old visiting the facility.

  17. Impact at Luthuli Museum (Cont.) • The impact areas that were completed, led to the following savings accordingly: • The existing HVAC equipment was replaced with a 40% more energy efficient system • Existing fluorescent light bulbs were replaced with LED bulbs which are powered via the Solar Technology installed • The installation of computerized irrigation and water harvesting systems led to a reduction of approximately 30% in water savings • Automated Remote Metering Systems for the electricity and water usage were installed to monitor readings every 30 minutes (leak detection was also included) • The total value of the project was R6m for the FY 2011/2012

  18. Impact at the Luthuli Museum

  19. Conclusion on Implemented Projects • Some of the challenges encountered include the following: • Dedicated professional services unit with qualified electrical engineers aligned to size of portfolio • Intensifying Monitoring and Evaluation - Partnership with DOE need to be instutionalised – MOU. • Engagement with Eskom Demand Management – needs to derive more benefit for state – 10 buildings identified for pilot project. • The energy efficiency initiatives were implemented successfully due to the remarkable commitment of all stakeholders. This complemented the development and implementation of the most efficient and cost effective energy saving methodologies. The IDT has completed all programmes over the two financial years i.e. FY 2010/2011 and FY 2011/2012 and currently is not working on any further initiatives in this regard.
