Let's Build a Power Station
- 1. Sustainable & Cheap & Reliable Electricity An Implementation Strategy for Net Metering By David Lipschitz My Power Station Technology 28th August 2012 Phone: 021 551 9935; 074 119 3246 david@mypowerstation.biz; skype: MyPowerStation (c) My Power Station Technology cc 2012 Permission is given to copy parts of this presentation as long as the author is acknowledged 1
- 2. Why I’m here • I’m asking people to join me in a business venture that will save us all money • We get to critical mass when we reach 50,000 residences – At 50,000 residences out of 14 million we become one of Eskom’s biggest customers / suppliers • To discuss: – Grid Parity and Net Metering – Virtual Power Stations and Smart Grids – Business, Homeowner Responsibility – Government Responsibility (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 2
- 3. Grid Parity And Net Metering • Grid Parity – Repayments on our installed systems cost the same as buying electricity – We become Power Producers economically • Net Metering – A payment system – Different types of “Net Metering” • Buy and sell at the same price • Buy and sell at different prices (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 3
- 4. Reaching Grid Parity in July 2012 Graph in Rand per kWh (ex VAT) (Also at Grid Parity inc VAT) (c) My Power Station Technology 2012
- 5. Fix your price and save (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 5
- 6. Virtual Power Stations & Smart Grids • Virtual Power Stations – A collection of small power producers and consumers look like a Normal Power Station in the grid • Smart Grids – Intelligent, computerised, dynamic, electricity grids – The user tells the grid what it needs – The grid tells the user what is available – Price changes depending on demand and supply (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 6
- 7. Business / Homeowner Responsibility • Can we help? • How? • Why? • What do homeowners need? – Cheap, reliable electricity (on demand) • What does business need? – Cheap, reliable electricity on demand (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 7
- 8. Government’s Responsibility • “Government should create an enabling environment to allow renewable energy technologies to compete with fossil-based technologies.” Government’s White Paper on Renewable Energy, 2003 • With electricity growth at 3% per annum, Eskom meets half of the electricity demanded. With coal, oil, nuclear, we can never catch up with the demand. (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 8
- 9. Government • So, has government created an enabling environment? • If not then because: – Myopia? – Changing the rules? Too many rules? – Greenwashing? – Electricity revenue? • Up to 95% of some cities income • 60% of city of Cape Town’s income; up from 40% 5 years ago – Lack of insight into the possibility of South Africa (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 9
- 10. The Cities • Worry about losing revenue due to homeowners, etc, making their own electricity • What model allows cities to make more money with Renewable Energy than with Fossil Fuel Energy? • What about City growth? (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 10
- 11. Let’s look at “the gap” (c) My Power Station Technology 2012
- 12. What’s electricity for anyway? • It’s an enabler to get the economy moving • The cost of unserved energy: R70 / kWh (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 12
- 13. Electricity Challenges • For City Dwellers without electricity, NO: – Water, Banking, Petrol, Transport, Food, Life – Only 4 days of food in the supply chain • Everything we do depends on electricity – We need security of supply – We need price certainty • So, how do we: – Create security of supply? Quickly? – How do we start reducing prices? Quickly? (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 13
- 14. Why are electricity prices increasing rapidly? At 3% electricity consumption growth (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 14
- 15. Electricity from the Sun (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 18
- 16. World Energy Growth Rates by Source Percent Annual Average Growth (c) My Power Station Technology 2012 19

- South Africa has gone from being one of the cheapest electricity countries to one of the most expensive. Our electricity is already more expensive than electricity in China, India, and even in Austin, Texas! Comparing the price of electricity in Dollars. And taking account of cost of living, electricity is much cheaper overseas.
- Calculate what you would spend if the price was constant for the next 20 years. Bank: how much will you give me if I can pay you R1000 per month?
- Based on 3% Compound Annual Growth Rate in electricity since 1990. We have 38 GW, and we should have 80 GW. The 42 GW is in China!

- Imagine life without electricity. South Africa is the 37th fastest growing country in Africa! Everything we do depends on electricity. David Murrin / research tells us we need electricity, population growth and resources
- Cut it to a minute
- In 2011 Capacity Installed: China 18GW; Doubled every year 2005 to 2009; Total Installed Wind Capacity Worldwide in 2011: 41,000 MW! World Wide Wind Total Installed Capacity: 238,000 MW (238 GW)
- If the whole world is growing with new tech, then why are we still focused on old tech
- Overcome peoples’ inertia and their unwillingness to change. I have a technique that will fix your electricity to the price you are spending today.
