11 FRES Foundation Rural Energy Services Rural village hubs in Segou and Sikasso regions of Mali THE COMPANY The Foundation Rural Energy Services (FRES) advances rural electrification in developing countries. By setting up small-scale commercial electricity companies in areas without a connection to the national electricity grid, FRES offers households and small companies access to electricity preferably derived from solar energy. Active in South Africa, Uganda, Mali, Burkina Faso and Guinea-Bissau THE CHALLENGE High cost of electricity production (via individual generators) for SME s, limiting productivity and opportunities for business start-up and growth Limited grid infrastructure or electricity generation capacity / intermittent supply Sharp increasing in diesel fuel price Copyright Alliance for Rural Electrification. All rights reserved. 11

12 FRES Foundation Rural Energy Services (2) THE RENEWABLE ENERGY SOLUTION Finance and commissioning of 8 solar PV power plants (50-150kWp) at rural trading hubs in Mali + Mini-grid infrastructure at 8 villages (new grid infrastructure and grid extension at other sites with existing (diesel) mini-grids Total installed capacity: 550kWp (combined total for 8 PV mini-grids) Actual production level: 1200MWh/year (combined total for 8 PV mini-grids) PV penetration ranges from % between the 8 mini-grids. System configurations are largely PV/battery storage/ diesel genset PROJECT FINANCING & MANAGEMENT Initial CAPEX financed by FRES, Nuon and AMADER (Malian Rural Electrification Agency)/World Bank through grant financing Consumption based invoicing ( 0.38/kWh) and pre-payment for customers Revenue finances ongoing operations and replacements Ongoing technical assistance and training for local technical staff from grid network operator in the Netherlands Copyright Alliance for Rural Electrification. All rights reserved. 12

13 FRES Foundation Rural Energy Services (3) OUTCOME AND NEXT STEPS customers switched from diesel to PV hybrid mini-grids, i.e. households and SME s (e.g. tailors, bakeries, radio stations, banks, games room, pharmacies, ICT services, water supply and commerce) Scale up of PV capacity to take place on 2016/2017 to support growth in demand (approx. 10% annually) from new and existing customers Copyright Alliance for Rural Electrification. All rights reserved. 13

14 Table Position ARE and its members proactively as the voice/focal point for stakeholder s, advocacy and information in the offgrid sector. Businesses and private sector (including Members) International organisations, institutions (including Partners) National level Media Increased Membership for ARE Place ARE as central organisation for off-grid increased B2B and business opportunities for Members More funding and cooperation opportunities for ARE and its Members ARE needs to be perceived as leader on global and national level In the long run, ARE needs to have opinions on national policies Priority 1: Large, global media (Economist, Guardian, Financial Times etc.) Priority 2: National media (for specific events; country action plans etc.) Copyright Alliance for Rural Electrification. All rights reserved. 1 4
