National Biogas Conference 2019 UNIDO support to the Southern Africa Biogas Industry Presented by: Nokwazi Moyo, National Project Manager for Waste-to-Energy Biogas SA Project 14 th August 2019 The ARC Conference Centre, South Africa 1134 Park Street, Hatfield, PRETORIA
Thematic Areas of UNIDO The Project addresses all the three Thematic Areas of UNIDO: 1. Creating shared prosperity • Integrated approach adopted to the adoption of Biogas • Capacity of market players and enablers strengthened and technology support systems established 2. Advancing economic competitiveness • Market environment for biogas strengthened and regulatory framework for grid-connected small to medium scale waste-to-energy projects developed • Technical feasibility and commercial viability of waste-to-energy technologies demonstrated 3. Safeguarding the environment • Investment in waste to energy promoted (avoidance of the landfill option) • Set targets for GHG reduction for each demonstration project • Measure GHG emissions reduction
GEF Objectives Covered by the Project The Project will contribute to two GEF Climate Change Strategic Objective: • Climate Change Objective 1: Promote the demonstration, deployment and transfer of innovative low-carbon technologies – Technologies successfully demonstrated, deployed, and transferred – Enabling policy environment and mechanisms created for technology transfer – GHG emissions avoided • Climate Change Objective 3: Promote investment in renewable energy technologies – Appropriate policy, legal and regulatory frameworks adopted and enforced – Sustainable financing and delivery mechanisms established and operational – GHG emissions avoided
Project Overview Project Title (long): Promoting organic waste-to-energy and other low-carbon technologies in small and medium and micro-scale enterprises (SMMEs): Accelerating biogas market development Project Title (short): Waste to Energy Biogas South Africa Project Start Date (official): July 2016 Completion Date: June 2020 Duration: 48 months (4 years) Scope of Coverage: South Africa (National) GEF Grant: USD 4.22 million Co-Financing: USD 41.88 million (pledged in-cash and in-kind)
Objective: Promote market-based adoption of integrated biogas technologies in SMMEs in South Africa – Catalytic Role of GEF Fund Components and Expected Outcomes 1. Capacity Building and biogas technology support system - Capacity of market players and enablers strengthened and technology support system established 2. Biogas Market development and regulatory framework – Market environment for biogas strengthened and regulatory framework strengthened 3. Technology Demonstration – Technical feasibility and commercial viability of integrated biogas projects demonstrated 4. Scaling up – Promote more investments in integrated biogas technology based projects
Project c componen nents a and i d interven entions ns Situation after the Project Components Barriers project Market players and enablers have capacity to Capacity/ support biogas industry Institutional Component 1: Capacity Building and Technology Support System Technology support system established Technical Component 4: Integrated biogas Scaling-up systems in SMMES Component 3: demonstrated and Technology Demonstration portfolio of investment projects developed.
