Saudi Arabia needs to invest US$133bn in power The continued surge in power demand will require Saudi Arabia to invest over US$133bn (SR500bn) during the next decade, Saudi Arabia’s water and electricity minister, Abdullah AlHussayen, said recently.

“There is a need for projects over the next 10 years with investments that exceed SR500bn,” he said.

Power consumption during the first half of 2012 rose by nine per cent year-on-year, according to Al-Hussayen and peak demand during the summer rose by seven per cent, the equivalent of an additional 3,500MW. Saudi Arabia’s deputy electricity minister stated earlier this year that the level of investment needed in power projects over the next decade would need to be revised from US$80bn to US$106bn.

Saudi Arabia saw power consumption rise substantially in 2012

Saudi Arabia plans to reduce its reliance on oil and gas and generate a proportion of its electricity from solar and nuclear plants as well as considering wind,

waste and geothermal energy. The country announced in May 2012 that it was seeking US$109bn of investment in renewables. A decision on the Kingdom’s

future energy strategy is reportedly imminent.

Al-Hussayen said that the Saudi Arabian government would focus on how “to meet growing demand for more efficient use and sustainable water and power.”

Business Monitor International’s recent Saudi Power Report for the fourth quarter of 2012 said that, in the short-term at least, Saudi Arabia’s power sector would remain among the GCC’s most dynamic and healthy. The report put this down to positive economic and demographic dynamics as well as sector-specific developments.

The Kingdom’s Ninth Development Plan (2010-2014) proposed raising generating capacity by 20.4GW by 2014, with Saudi Arabia injecting US$80bn to expand various power projects.

Bahra Cables wins Saudi Electricity contract Hall: 7 Stand: 7C10 Power cable specialist, Bahra Cables Co, has signed a US$106mn (SR400mn) contract with Saudi Electricity Co. for the supply of low and medium voltage cables. The company’s CEO, Engineer Talal Idriss, said that the recent opening of the company’s plant for the production of PVC had enabled the company to supply cables of the highest quality. The plant has an annual capacity of more than 36,000 tons.

“In view of the high demand for our products, we expanded our production of power cables to meet the needs of large companies both locally and internationally,” said Idriss. “Our products meet the highest international standards and 4

this is documented by various accreditation certificates for its production of power cables.”

Bahra Cables, an affiliate of Construction Products Holding Company (CPC), has attained ISO 9001: 2008 for its collection of medium and high voltage cables up to 132 kV. According to Idriss, the company was also the first Saudi cable manufacturer to attain ISO 14001: 2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007.

Bahra Cables, which was founded in 2008, has supplied products for use in many key projects both in the Middle East and in Africa.

Region beginning to embrace solar energy The Shams 1 solar project in Abu Dhabi, which covers an area of 2.5 sq km, is the first large-scale solar project in the UAE and the largest plant of its kind in the Middle East region.

The concentrated solar project will generate 100MW at full capacity, enough to power 20,000 homes and the project exemplifies the Middle East’s increasing willingness to embrace solar energy.

“We truly believe solar will be a major contributor to meeting our own requirements,” said Sultan Ahmed Al-Jaber, the UAE’s special envoy for energy and climate change and the chief executive officer of government-funded Masdar, the

majority investor in the solar project.

“We are not like many other countries today that have a desperate need for complimentary sources of

power. We are looking at it from a strategic point of view.

We want to become a technology player, rather than an energy player.”

Abu Dhabi plans to

generate seven per cent of its electricity from renewables by 2020 while Saudi Arabia has set a 10 per cent target by 2020 and Kuwait is attempting to reach 15 per cent by 2030. Saudi Arabia has announced ambitious plans to generate a solar energy capacity of 41,000MW by 2032.

Booz & Company principal, Tarek El Sayed, highlighted that while many of the renewable energy projects within the MENA region are currently lacking required funding, the region may still witness a renewable energy boom. He added that key countries driving this boom will include Saudi Arabia and the UAE as well as Libya and Egypt, among others.

IDC Energy Insights reveals top 10 predictions for region’s utilities industry IDC Energy Insights has revealed its top 10 predictions for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) utilities industry during a recent complimentary web conference. Attended live by over 100 utilities and vendors, the web conference highlighted key trends and developments that will affect EMEA utilities' business and technology investment decisions in 2013 and beyond.

IDC Energy Insights predictions for the next 2013 were developed by carefully considering the major world events of 2012. The session, which featured analysts Roberta Bigliani, Gaia Gallotti, Luiza Semernya, Daniella Muallem, Milan Kalal and Petr Stabrawa, addressed the key business and technology opportunities that utilities should be considering within

a fast-evolving marketplace.

Electricity, gas and water smart network management, smart metering, customer engagement, smart integration of distributed generation, storage and electric vehicles and energy management were among the topics discussed.

IDC Energy Insights' Top 10 Predictions for the EMEA utilities industry for 2013 and beyond are: • Flexibility will be the ‘new normal’ for smart grids implementation • Regulatory procrastinations will hold back the electricity smart metering market • Smart grid communication approaches will continue to be heterogeneous • Consumer engagement will be vital • Smart water spending will begin in 2013

• Public funding will back ‘smart cities’ • CIOs will need resources to transform operations • Boosted by apps, increased mobile activities will hit utilities • Utilities will embrace analytics to make sense of their ‘big data’ • EMEA Utilities IT spending will hit US$17.5bn in 2013 "Utilities are under pressure across the EMEA region,” said Roberta Bigliani, head of EMEA, IDC Energy Insights.

“Economic downturn in many European countries, more difficult conditions on capital and borrowing markets, and most importantly uncertainty about medium and long term return on investments are slowing down the smart energy transition.

“Nevertheless, renewable sources and distributed

generation continue to develop, as well as investment in grids. We expect for instance that IT spend on network automation and control in EMEA will grow about eight per cent in 2013.

"Flexibility will be the new normal for utilities and smart technologies are the cornerstone of the transformation across the entire value chain.

Utilities will invest in analytics, mobility and cyber security. CIOs will consider alternative sourcing models to enable business agility and reduce IT investments.

Different IT skill sets will be needed. Lack of a clear leadership and governance in the integration OT/IT could undermine innovation."

Jordan pushes ahead with nuclear plans Lynda Evans

J

ordan’s ambitions to develop nuclear power in a bid to cut its burgeoning energy-related import bill – equating to over one fifth of its GDP - and reduce its near total dependence on fuel imports were given a further boost when a Jordanian-French joint venture reported it had nearly doubled its projections for uranium reserves in the kingdom’s central region.

The existence of uranium resources within Jordan’s borders has been known for some time, but it is only in the past five years that serious efforts have been made to explore their commercial viability. The initial impetus for these exploration efforts were to supply an eventual internal market but Jordan now hopes to sell its new found uranium internationally, with plans to establish a mining operation in the central region.

The World Nuclear Association (WNA) in a recent country briefing report on Jordan estimated the kingdom’s countrywide “low cost” uranium resources at 140,000 tU plus another 59,000 tU in phosphate deposits. A feasibility study on recovering uranium as a by-product of phosphate production is also under way.

The announcement by the Jordan French Uranium Mining Company (JFUMC), a joint venture between Jordan Energy Resources Inc. (JERI, a commercial arm of Jordan Atomic Energy Corporation [JAEC]) and French nuclear major Areva S.A., that it had almost doubled its uranium ore projections for the central region is being seen in Jordan

as an encouraging sign for the economic feasibility of uranium mining in the kingdom.

JFUMC, established in September 2008 to explore for uranium resources in the central region, reported it had identified over 20,000 tU as reserves in a 72 sq km area.

The figure updates an earlier report in December 2011 that some 12,300 tU of potential reserves had been identified over an 18 sq km area within the joint venture’s 1,469 sq km concession, JFUMC reported.

The increase is due to additional exploration in areas adjacent to the original drilling site. JFUMC’s licence area in central Jordan includes the Swaqa, Khan Azzabib, Wadi Maghar and Attarat areas, where previous work by Jordan’s Natural Resources Authority identified a surface mineralisation and

estimated some 65,000 tU spread across three zones and 60 sq km.

JAEC emphasised that the JFUMC findings are not the final number, and the results are being evaluated by Australian mining consultants Coffey Mining. Some reports suggest the audit may reveal that the joint venture has underestimated the total reserves in the central region.

JFUMC is now conducting technical and economic feasibility studies on uranium mining and extraction, including the development of an open pit mine. Areva already signed a uranium mining agreement with JERI back in February 2010, which is understood to have given the French company exclusive uranium mining rights in central Jordan for 25 years.

Areva has said it hopes to begin uranium production by 2015, but this could not be

confirmed with the French company by press time.

Meanwhile, JERI announced the initial results of ongoing exploration in the Al Hasa and Qatrana areas, about 80 km south of Amman. Preliminary estimates indicate some 22,000 tU, JAEC reported. The uranium is present in the Qatrana phosphorites, where the uranium mineralisation is reported at 0.015-0.017 per cent and would be a coproduct with phosphates and vanadium, according to WNA. About 52mn tonnes of phosphate is reported, but neither the phosphate nor the uranium is a JORC-compliant resource, WNA said. JERI is calling for bids later this year from major mining companies to develop seven blocks of the deposit.

The group had signed a MoU with JAEC in early 2009 to explore for uranium as well as for thorium and zirconium. JERI has since taken over the exploration activities in the area. JERI held talks earlier this year with Australia’s Alliance Resources Ltd. and Gippsland Ltd. on a uranium exploration programme for a 22,000 sq km in southern Jordan. Alliance has since pulled out of the talks. It is unclear if Gippsland is continuing the discussions with Jordan In a separate venture, China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) has explored for uranium at Hamra-Hausha in the north of the kingdom, and at Wadi Baheyya in the south. Some uranium mineralisation is also reported at Rweished near the Iraq border in Jordan’s far northeast.

Areva meanwhile, is studying the feasibility of recovering uranium as a byproduct of Jordan’s phosphate production. The

PREVIEW study, which began in 2008, aims to identify the best technologies for uranium extraction from phosphoric acid produced by phosphate rock miner and fertilizer producer, Jordan Phosphate Mines Company (JPMC).

JPMC’s main mining operation is at Eshidiya in southern Jordan.

But Jordan does not intend to enrich its own uranium to fuel its planned nuclear power operations in the near term, JAEC Public Affairs Section Head, Inas Shatnawi, confirmed. She said the kingdom plans to use imported nuclear fuel, at least in the early years of nuclear power generation, while the uranium Jordan produces would be sold internationally, helping to provide part of the funding for the nuclear power plant (NPP). Jordanian officials have said that for strategic and economic reasons Jordan’s government cannot renounce its right to enrich its own uranium for nuclear power fuel.

The kingdom is a signatory to the United Nations Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty. But

the US, among others, wants Jordan to emulate the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which secured final approval to goahead with the first two of four planned NPPs at Baraka in July, and buy-in the enriched uranium for nuclear power generation. The UAE has signed deals not to enrich uranium itself or to reprocess spent fuel and has awarded fuel supply contracts to six international companies, including Areva and Rio Tinto.

It is unlikely that Jordan would enrich its own uranium for the planned NPP, said an industry analyst. “There would be much opposition to such a move. And there would be the capital cost of setting up the facilities to consider, coming hot on the heels of building the nuclear power plant,” he said.

Jordan’s Committee for Nuclear Strategy, established in 2007, set out a programme for nuclear power to provide 30 per cent of the kingdom’s electricity by 2030 and provide for exports. Domestic electricity demand is projected to double by 2030 from the present day, and is expected to translate into a

total electricity generation capacity need of 8,000MWe by 2030, according to WNA, and require more than 15,000MWe of capacity by 2040 up from 2,662MWe in 2007, according to JAEC. Jordan envisages ultimately building three or four NPPs. According to JAEC’s Shatnawi, the kingdom aims to have its first NPP in operation sometime between 2020 and 2025. The commission last May announced that it had short-listed two bidders to supply the technology for the proposed plant, and aims to award the contract in March or April of this year.

Areva, in a 50:50 joint venture with Japan’s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries named “Atmea”, is proposing the Atmea-1 reactor, a Generation 111+ plant with 1,100MWe of power generating capacity, which has yet to built anywhere .

Atomstroyexport, part of Russia’s Rosatom, has proposed its 1,100MWe capacity AES-92 reactor.

Interestingly, in July Areva and Rosatom signed a MoU for studying opportunities of strengthening their mutually beneficial cooperation in the nuclear sector.

JAEC said the evaluation of technology suppliers took into account “the highest safety requirements, including lessons learned from Fukushima”.

WorleyParsons worked with JAEC providing pre-preconstruction consultancy services under a US$11.3mn contract awarded in 2009. That contract ended last August.

JAEC and the two successful bidders are now working to resolve certain outstanding technical issues, including the completion of the site selection process.

According to Shatnawi, a final selection of the NPP site has not yet been made. However, attention is focused on a site in the vicinity of Jordan’s main wastewater treatment plant, Kherbat Al Samra, near Majdal in Al Mafraq province some 40 km north of Amman.

Belgium’s Tractebel Engineering, a GDF Suez subsidiary, is working with JAEC on the plant siting.

A site close to Aqaba originally was considered but the seismic characteristics of the Al Samra site are seen as much better. Additionally, cooling water for the NPP will be available via the treatment of wastewater at the Al Samra plant. Work is underway on a

cooling system model based on that at the Palo Verde NPP in Arizona, US. JAEC said the final stage of the technology selection

process will be performed in parallel with the search for a strategic partner which would invest in and operate the NPP. The commission has said it

would try and find a compatible “match” of technology supplier and strategic operator. The expectation is that a utility company from the technology supplier country would team with Jordan as the strategic partner and investor.

Shatnawi confirmed that the commission expects to select the strategic investor/operator by March or April this year, but declined to name contenders.

Under JAEC’s proposal, it is likely that the NPP will be owned and operated under a public-private partnership, with the strategic investor providing up to half the funding to build the plant. According to Shatnawi, the current idea is for the strategic partner to have full operational control of the NPP for say the first five years of its operation, by which time Jordan will have developed local nuclear expertise. !

R&D Building of a 5MW research and test nuclear reactor at the Jordan University of Science and Technology at Al-Ramtha recently got under way. The reactor, which is being built by a consortium comprising Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute and Daewoo, is slated to be operational by 2015. JAEC said it will serve as a training ground for Jordanian nuclear engineers and physicists who will man the country’s planned NPP in the future.

UAE moves closer to nuclear future The Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (ENEC) will present its licence application for the construction of its third and fourth nuclear reactors shortly.

The approval process by the UAE Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation is expected to take many months.

Approval for the construction of Barakah Nuclear Power Plant Units 1 and 2 was granted in July 2012, over 18 months after the licence application was made, but ENEC must apply to FANR for operating licences. The advanced pressurised water reactors, the first of which is currently under construction in Barakah, western Abu Dhabi, will each be capable of producing 1,400MW of electricity. The reactors are being supplied by Korea Electric

Power Corporation (KEPCO).

The UAE, which has pledged to the International Atomic Energy Agency not to enrich uranium or reprocess spent fuel, is currently devising a nuclear waste strategy plan, with export being one option under consideration.

The UAE, which has signed agreements with Russia, the US, Australia, Canada, the UK, South Korea and France to share technology, equipment and nuclear material, has stated its desire to ensure 25 per cent of its energy needs will be met by nuclear power by 2020.

Burning natural gas currently generates 80 per cent of the UAE’s power with the remainder coming from oil.

The international agreements will enable the supply of

www.enec.gov.ae

nuclear fuel and conversion and enrichment services to ENEC’s four proposed reactors and also allow the transfer of nuclear technology and material between the respective countries. The 15-year contracts provide ENEC with secure long-term supplies as well as favourable pricing and commercial terms. A statement from ENEC said it would return to the market again in the near future to further strengthen its supply position.

A recent statement from

ENEC announced that the construction of Units 1 and 2 was 22.75 per cent complete, meaning that the project was running eight weeks ahead of schedule.

“We are delighted to be able to report such strong progress on the project,” said ENEC CEO, Mohamed Al Hammadi. “Our partner KEPCO has brought world-class expertise to this project, ensuring that we meet our goal of delivering the gold standard of peaceful nuclear energy development.”

SOLAR NEWS

PREVIEW

Qatar aims for solar power boost by 2018 Qatar has announced that it aims to increase the share of solar power to 16 per cent of its total power generation by 2018. The announcement came during recent talks held in Doha to discuss how to slow down global warming. The event, held from 26 November to 7 December, was attended by almost 200 nations.

“We are working on a project to develop 1,800MW of solar power,” the chairman of the event’s organisers, Fahad Bin Mohammad Al Attiya, was quoted as saying by Reuters.

“That will be 16 per cent of our total electrical output.”

The project is due to start operations in 2018, according to

Al Attiya, who added that Qatar currently had negligible solar power despite the presence of constant, strong sunshine.

Renewables will also aid the desalination of sea water.

“It makes sense for us,” said Al Attiya. “We will also have a feed-in tariff system so that people can put solar systems on their roof and contribute to the grid. All these measures have been applied now because solar prices are becoming reasonable and competitive. With the amount of solar hours we have it is economically feasible.”

Qatar currently has the world’s highest greenhouse gas emissions per capita.

Enpark and Solar Middle East join forces Dubai’s Environment and Energy Park (Enpark) has announced it is to be a strategic partner of the Solar Middle East exhibition and conference. Enpark, which is located in Dubai Technology and Media Free Zone, said that the move was designed to boost the growth of the solar and photovoltaic (PV) sectors.

Solar Middle East will take place alongside the Middle East Electricity exhibition from 17-19 February, 2013 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre and will include a dedicated industry conference.

Solar Middle East is expected to attract more than 150 suppliers of solar products from around the world who are looking to tap into the lucrative MENA market.

“As an organisation dedicated to the advancement of environmentally friendly and energy efficient business solutions, Enpark constantly endeavours to facilitate industry collaboration and identify new sustainable business opportunities,” said Saeed Gobash, director of Enpark. “Our strategic partnership with Solar Middle East will serve as an excellent platform for Enpark and its members to engage, network and learn from regional and international solution and technology providers across the solar and photovoltaic sectors.”

Enpark, which was launched on 5 June, 2007 to coincide

www.enpark.ae

with World Environment Day, is the first free zone dedicated to the energy and sustainability industries in the Middle East. It offers organisations across the industry, from renewable energy, conventional energy and green buildings to waste management sectors, a platform to enhance and increase their business. More than 40 companies, from clean-tech start-ups to large energy multinationals, currently operate under Enpark’s licences.

The inaugural edition of Solar Middle East reflects the current boom in the development of solar power facilities in the region, with at least 10 major projects worth a combined US$6.8bn under construction in the UAE, Kuwait, Oman, Egypt, Jordan and Morocco. Solar Middle East is officially supported by solar industry partner associations, the Saudi Arabia Solar Industries Association (SASIA), and the Emirates Solar Industry Association (ESIA), along with the UAE Society of Engineers.

Solar energy costs ‘decrease by 60 per cent’ During the past two years, the cost of solar energy technology has decreased by 60 per cent according to the director general of International Renewable Energy, Adnan Z Ameen.

“The cost of wind energy has gone down by 15 to 20 per cent during the same time,” he said. “There were certain misconceptions that renewable energy is costly, 18

Published by SERVING THE REGION’S BUSINESS SINCE 1984

intermittent, so not reliable.”

According to Ameen, decreasing costs will allow renewable energy projects to be deployed without carrying the large, often crippling, burden of upfront investment. While, conventional energy generation projects do not need upfront investment, they are costly in the long-term. Ameen said that the decreased price of

renewable technology will enable the renewable energy industry to send a clear message that it is cheaper, reliable, abundant and clean.

He told Gulf News that it was already late for the industry to highlight its advantages and that conventional energy industries had been quick to emphasise that oil, gas and coal sources were cheap, plentiful and create jobs.

According to Ameen, Saudi Arabia has the potential to generate four times the global energy demand from renewables. Despite being the world’s largest exporter of oil, the Kingdom will begin to import oil in the next 25 years to meet domestic demand, Ameen said, hence the fact that Saudi Arabia had already instigated ambitious renewable energy initiatives.
