Annual Report 2012 | Fij i Electricity Authority
29th May 2013
The Honourable Minister for Works,Transport & Public Utilities Level 4, Nasilivata House Ratu Mara Road, Samabula, Suva
Dear Minister,
Annual Report 2012
I am pleased to present the Fiji Electricity Authority’s Annual Report for 2012. The report provides a detailed summary of FEA’s performance in accordance with Section 25 of the Electricity Act Cap 180.
2012 has been a challenging year for the Authority as it was put to test as a result of the two floods early in the year and Cyclone Evan in December. Despite these unplanned natural events occurring in 2012, FEA still rose above these challenges and performed admirably by recording a financial profit of $75.3M after tax in 2012.
Construction of the US$150M Nadarivatu Renewable Hydro Power Project was completed in May 2012 and the Scheme was officially opened on the 14th September 2012 which is another milestone achievement for FEA. This project is a major step towards achieving the Authority’s renewable energy target of generating 90% of its energy requirements through renewable sources by 2015.
The Authority continued to meet all its obligations and fulfil all its responsibilities whilst also continuing with the efficient operation of the power system.
On behalf of the Members of the Authority, I take this opportunity to thank the Government for its continued support and look forward to the same in 2013 and beyond.
Sincerely,
Nizam-ud-Dean Chairman

Key Outcomes for the year
FEA achieved a positive financial result in 2012 recording a profit of $75.3M after tax. This includes an income tax benefit of $13.5M as a result of incorporating the 40% fuel investment allowance granted for the Nadarivatu Hydro Project (NHP).
The shareholder value of FEA increased from $472M as at the end of 2011 to $552M at the end of 2012.
The positive financial result enabled FEA to carry out Capex work totalling $55.9M in 2012, repay matured bonds and loans aggregating to F$41.3M in 2012, paid out around $10M in 100% refundable capital contribution and to commence with the Monasavu Hydro Project half-life repairs & maintenance work spending close to F$13M in 2012.
FEA achieved all the Financial Covenants signed with lenders; China Development Bank (CDB), ANZ and BSP banks. This ensured that Government, being the sovereign Guarantor of the FEA Loans, was not exposed.
FEA successfully rolled over 2X$20M ANZ loans and refinanced 1x$20M BSP loan at lower interest rates resulting in interest savings to FEA.
For the first time FEA’s total asset value exceeded F$1B. FEA has added significant shareholder value in recent years.
FEA’s gearing ratio at the end of December 2012 was 34.3% (2011-41.3%) which is within the international benchmark for power utilities of not more than 45%. As a result, FEA will be able to borrow in future to partially fund its capital expenditure programme.
FEA tendered the refinancing of US$30M of the China Development Bank (CDB) loan in the local financial market to take advantage of the prevailing high liquidity and low interest rates and also to eliminate any foreign currency exposures. This loan will be finalised in early 2013.
Nadarivatu Hydro Project was officially opened on the 14th September 2012 and generated a total of 29.89 GWh of energy in 2012. The final project cost is US$140.7M compared to a budget of US$150M.This is a big achievement for a project of this magnitude.
The Validation Process of the Nadarivatu Hydro Project Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) has been completed by the Japan Consulting Institute (JCI) who is the Designated Operational Entity (DOE). The Validation Report has been uploaded and the project will be submitted for registration with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in January 2013.
In request of the NHP, approval was obtained from the Minister of Finance for the 40% Depreciation Allowance applicable to Fuel Economy and Alternative Source of Energy Projects. This has positively assisted FEA’s tax position in 2012.
FEA purchased the Head Office Complex from the iTaukei Trust Fund.
Acquired suitable land at the Kalabo Tax Free Zone to establish a zone substation in Nasinu to cater for future increase in electricity demand.
Phase-1 of the half-life repair & maintenance of the Monasavu Hydro Scheme progressed according to work plan. Phase-2 will commence in 2013. The total cost of this repair and maintenance is $44M spread over a period of four years. Repair and maintenance once completed will improve the performance, reliability and duration of this hydro scheme.
Completed the conversion of the 2x6 MW Industrial Diesel Oil (IDO) generating sets at a cost of $10M to run on cheaper Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) at the Vuda Power Station. The HFO plant was commissioned in May 2012. FEA achieved fuel savings of F$3.99M in 2012 from this conversion.
Acquired funding of FJ$20M from ANZ Bank to partially fund the Wainisavulevu Weir Raising Project. This project progressed according to schedule in 2012.
FEA spent $6.97M on rural, commercial/industrial and system reinforcement projects. A further $4.3M was spent on replacement of aging assets at Labasa Power Station and various Zone Sub-stations.
Awarded contracts for the augmentation of the 33kV Zone Substations at Vuda and Waqadra at a cost of F$2.1M. A further contract was awarded for the construction of a new double circuit 33kV transmission line from Vuda to Waqadra. This project will be completed in 2014.
Awarded a tender for the upgrade of the SCADA system at a cost of F$1.97M. This will improve the daily operation of the entire power system from the Authority’s National Control Centre in Vuda.
Commenced feasibility studies to determine the viability of developing Hydro Projects in the upper Navua River area, Wailoa Downstream and at Waibutasavu.
Construction of a 33kV transmission line from Cawaira power station in Labasa to Dreketi and establishment of zone substations at Seaqaqa, Dreketi and Cawaira progressed according to the work plan for 2012. This project is expected to be commissioned by the end of 2013.
Achieved a System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) for unplanned power outages of 666 minutes against a target of 750 minutes.
Achieved a record high ICT up-time system performance of 99.905% against a target of 99.8%.
Completed a comprehensive review of the Organisation’s Top Business Risks and implemented formulated strategies to mitigate the risks. This has resulted in the improvement of the risk level of 13 top business risks by at least one level.
Paid out a total of $4.2M in retirement benefits and long service leave to employees and thereafter removed these benefits effective from the 7th November 2011 in line with the Essential National Industries Decree (ENID).
Awarded the President’s Award in the 2012 Fiji Business Excellence Awards. This is a milestone achievement for the organisation.

Fiji Electricity Authority | Annual Report 2012
2012 was a milestone year for FEA.
Firstly, it commissioned its second largest hydro scheme in Viti Levu, the 40MW Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme. This is a giant step towards fulfilling its long term objective of producing 90% of its energy through renewable sources by 2015.
Secondly, the commissioning of the Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme reaffirms FEA’s commitment towards implementing its optimum Power Development Plan.
Finally, the year ended on a high note with FEA creating history by winning the President’s Award for the first time at the 14th Fiji Business Excellence Awards. This shows that FEA has moved beyond quality and is inspired by excellence and best-in-class perfomance.
Chairman’s Report
2012 Profitability
FEA made a financial profit of $75.3 M after tax in 2012.This equates to a Return on Shareholder Funds (ROSF) of positive 13.6%.The profit recorded for 2012 was largely due to the excellent performance of the Monasavu Hydro Scheme, commissioning of the Nadarivatu Hydro Project in 2012 and stringent measures implemented to control operational expenditure. The profit after tax includes an income tax benefit of $13.5M as a result of the 40% fuel investment allowance granted by the Ministry of Finance for the Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme. Had this allowance not been approved, FEA would have recorded an income tax expense of $12.4M in 2012 and this would have resulted in a profit after tax of $49.4M.
The profitability of FEA for the period 2005 to 2012 is illustrated in the graph shown below:
FEA recorded a fuel cost of $105.1M in 2012 as compared to $137.8M for 2011. This is equivalent to 35% of the total revenue for 2012. Had the tariff increases in 2010 and 2011 not been implemented then substantial losses could have resulted in 2012.
FEA incurs significant non-commercial obligation (NCO) costs each year when supplying subsidised electricity to rural Viti Levu and to the whole of Vanua Levu and Ovalau. It is estimated that FEA incurred around $25M of NCO costs when fulfilling its social obligations in 2012. Although the Public Enterprises Act requires the Government to reimburse the NCO costs to FEA, such costs are not refunded. Instead, the Government has accepted, via Cabinet decision CP2002 18th Meeting dated 10th September 2002

that FEA’s non-commercial contribution to social and community services through its electricity subsidies to be recognised as its annual dividend to the Government. Therefore, the deemed dividend paid to the Government by FEA for 2012 is a notional adjustment to account for the NCO costs which would have resulted in an after-tax financial profit of $95.3M and a ROSF of positive 17.3% for the year. The adjusted profitability numbers and ROSF are shown below for the period 2005 to 2012.
FEA appreciates the support provided by the Government through granting of duty concessions for its Renewable Energy Projects and guaranteeing FEA’s borrowings. It is essential that the Government continues to support FEA to ensure the long term financial sustainability of the organisation and achievement of its Power Development Plan.
Financial Strength
FEA’s gearing ratio, as measured by Debt to Debt plus Capital and Reserves excluding cash-in-hand, was 34.3% as at 31st December 2012, which is well within the international benchmark for power utilities of about 45%, despite incurring Capital Expenditure of around $55.9M in 2012. The gearing has reduced substantially compared to 2011 of 41.3%. This provides opportunities for additional borrowing by FEA to fund its Power Development Plan. The reduction in gearing level is due to the good profit recorded in 2012 and FEA repaying matured bonds & loans of around $41.3M in 2012.
The shareholder value of FEA was $552M at the end of 2012 which increased from $472M at the end of 2011 and $324.9M at the end of 2002. For the first time FEA’s total assets are worth $1.03B, a substantial increase from $983M in 2011 and $456.7M in 2002. This shows that it has added significant shareholder value over the last 10 years since the implementation of organisational reforms.
FEA Restructure
The restructure process for the Initial Public Offering (IPO) of the Fiji Electricity Authority with the intention to partially privatize the Company continued in 2012. The Ministry of Public Enterprises and FEA had called for tenders for the appointments of the Independent Accountant and the Investment Advisor.This tender was called in late 2012 and will close in early 2013. It is envisaged that the appointment of the Independent Accountant and Investment Advisor will be finalised in early 2013.

Butoni Wind Farm
Butoni wind farm generated 6.81M units of electricity in 2012. This is equivalent to a fuel cost saving of around $3M in 2012. Depicted below graphically is the energy output from Butoni Wind Farm since commissioning:
Statistics for the wind farm from the commencement of its operations in June 2007 are given below:
•TotalGenerationOutput=33.4Munitsofelectricity
•TotalDieselFuelCostSavings=F$11.98M
•TotalForeignExchangeSavings=F$7.67M
•TotalDieselFuelSaved=7021tonnesofdiesel
•TotalEmissionReduction=21,816tonnesofCarbonDioxide
Cyclone Evan in late December damaged the blades of some of the wind turbines even though the wind turbines had been lowered to the ground.
Progress on Renewable Energy Projects
The 40MW Nadarivatu Renewable Hydro Power Project was commissioned in May 2012 and the official opening was carried out by the Honourable Prime Minister on the 14th September 2012. By year end this new hydro station had produced some 29.9M units of electricity.
This project will greatly assist FEA in moving towards achieving its renewable energy target of 90% from renewable energy sources by 2015.
The Validation Process for carbon credits for the project under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) was completed and will be submitted for registration with the UNFCCC in early January 2013.
Full feasibility studies have been carried out on potential Hydro Projects in Viti Levu to establish their viability. FEA will be calling for “Expressions of Interest” (EOI) for the development of some of these schemes early next year.

The FEA Board developed eight Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for 2012 to enable the Government to measure the performance of the FEA Board. The KPIs were included as part of FEA’s Statement of Corporate Intent (SCI) for 2012. The actual achievement of the KPIs is detailed below:
Achievement of Board Key Perfomance Indicators
Key Perfomance Indicators Final Outcome
1 Achieve a Return on Shareholders’ Funds (ROSF) of at least 2.5% provided the proposed average tariff of 39.4c/unit is retained in 2012 and the assumptions on the demand and supply for 2012 does not change substantially.
ACHIEvED. Audited ROSF as at end of December, 2012 is positive 13.6%. This is due to the good rainfall received at the Monasavu catchment early in the year which enabled good utilization of hydro throughout the year and stringent control of operational expenditure by Management.

FEA set a target at the beginning of 2012 that it must perform and turn around the weak working capital recorded at the end of 2011 of some $3.4M in order to achieve the following key objectives in 2012:
• Repaybondsandloansofaround $41.3M maturing in 2012;
• FundthecompletionofNadarivatu Hydro Project and other critical capex totalling $56M from internal cash flows;
• Ensurethatthedebtcovenantswith Lenders are not breached so that Government, being the sovereign guarantor of the FEA loans, is not exposed; and
• Ensurethattherepairsandmaintenance of critical assets considered as its “golden goose” are carried out on time with available internal funds. In this regard, FEA to commence phase one of the Monasavu Hydro Scheme half-life repair and maintenance work estimated to cost some $13M in 2012.
It is a tribute to the robust business model that FEA adopted in 2012 which was geared towards making profits that enabled the achievement of all of the above objectives.
Chief Executive Officer’s Report
FEA performed admirably in 2012 recording a profit after tax of $75.3M despite the two flash floods in early January & March and Cyclone Evan in December causing substantial damages to the FEA transmission network infrastructures throughout Fiji. This profit was achieved partially due to the excellent performance from the Monasavu Hydro Scheme which produced 466GWh of energy in 2012 which is above the long term average of 400GWh, commissioning of the Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme and stringent measures put in place to control operational expenditure. The two flash floods & Cyclone Evan incurred restoration costs amounting to $6.3M in 2012.This cost was not budgeted for by FEA in 2012.
The next three years will bring a lot of challenges to the Authority. The impact of the reduction in the electricity tariff by 5% from 1st January 2013 is substantial and will require adjustment to be made to FEA’s business model. FEA envisages a total capex of around $198M and repayment of matured bonds and loans totalling $95M over the period 2013-2015. This is a huge financial commitment and requires that FEA must make profits and generate cash surplus in order to have the ability to fund these CAPEX (averaging $66M annually) and repay matured bonds and loans when they fall due. The total bonds and loans maturing in 2013 are around $36M. FEA’s financial performance over the next 3 years will be critical in determining how successfully it can fund the above commitments. It will have to keep aside surplus cash of at least $40M a year and this means that FEA has to record good levels of profitability to generate the necessary cash reserves required. FEA has to make a profit after tax of at least $40M annually over the next 3 years to achieve the above plans. Therefore, it is imperative that FEA adopts a business model that will achieve the desired profitability level to ensure that it remains financially sustainable. However, this will depend on the amount of rainfall at Monasavu and Nadarivatu, the global fuel price and the electricity tariff.
Further, now that Nadarivatu Hydro Project is fully commissioned and in operation, FEA’s focus over the next three years will be to maintain its ageing assets that have been in service for some 30 plus years. Bulk of these assets are the FEA power network assets and the Monasavu Hydro Scheme. This will be another huge investment by FEA. Once the maintenance of these assets are completed, it will improve the reliability and security of power supply to customers.
Finally, I thank the Chairman and the Board Members for their valuable guidance and constructive support throughout the year. I wish to record my thanks and appreciation to my colleagues in the Executive Management team and to all the employees of our organisation and other external service providers for their continuing support, dedication and patience throughout 2012.
I also record my sincere thanks and appreciation to the Honourable Prime Minister and his Cabinet Ministers, Permanent Secretaries and Government officials, the Reserve Bank of Fiji, the Fiji Commerce Commission, the Fiji Revenue & Customs Authority and the executives of the Bargaining Units for their kind assistance, support and cooperation rendered in 2012.
The invaluable contribution of one and all mentioned above made it easier for FEA to rise above the challenges faced during the year and perform exceptionally well.
I look forward to their continued support in delivering increased value to our Shareholder and Stakeholders in the coming year.
Hasmukh Patel Chief Executive Officer

CUStoMerS
Customer Service
The number of customer accounts increased by 2% from 155,912 in December 2011 to 159,018 in December 2012. The customer accounts are made up of: Industrial 93 (0.06%); Commercial 14,828 (9.32%) and Domestic and Institutional 144,097 (90.62%). The increase in customer accounts was mostly in the Domestic Sector recording a growth of 2%, most of which were in remote rural areas as a result of the Rural Electrification projects mainly funded by the Government and FEA. There was a decrease in demand for electricity by an overall 1.2% from 740.87M units in 2011 to 731.63M units in 2012. The main decrease in electricity consumption was in the Domestic sector, with demand decreasing by 2.38% from 218.5M units in 2011 to 213.3M units in 2012. Demand also decreased by 0.96% in the Commercial sector and in the Industrial (Maximum Demand) sector it dropped by 0.46%. The reduction in electricity demand for the Domestic, Commercial and Industrial sectors could be attributed to the power outage in the Central region for a period of 6 days in April due to a landslide that caused one of the 132kV transmission towers to fall. Futhermore, the power supply in the Central, Western and Northern divisions were affected during Cyclone Evan in December and during the two floods in early 2012. These natural disasters also contributed to this reduction. The Government subsidy given for domestic customers who use less than 75 units per month also contributed to the reduction in consumption with customers reducing electricity consumption to attract Government subsidy requirements and thus take advantage of the subsidy offered.
Contact Centre
The Contact Centre continued its good performance in 2012. The Grade of Service (GOS) achieved for the year was 85.6% with Calls Abandoned at 8.6%. This was a good result in a challenging year where the Contact Centre was required to manage information flow to customers on the review in consumer security deposit, disconnection and reconnection of electricity accounts, prepayment issues, planned power outages and power outages during natural disasters. Total calls received as at 31st December 2012 were 428,756, an average of 35,729 calls a month. This was an increase of 16.7% from 2011 when a total of 367,149 calls were received. The increase in call volume was the result of enquiries made regarding the review of the consumer security deposit
and queries on power restoration plan after Cyclone Evan that affected all of FEA’s customers in December 2012. With a concentrated and coordinated approach in 2013, it is anticipated that the call volume will decrease. The focus continues to be on the quality of service delivered to the individual customers by Contact Centre staff when answering the calls. The Contact Centre continues to operate 24hours, 7days a week with the main Contact Centre in Suva closing at 9.00pm and services taken over by Contact Centre staff at the National Control Centre in Vuda. Usage of the emergency 913 number for non emergency calls by customers continues to be a concern with a total of 19,998 calls received on this number of which only 3,719 were genuine emergency calls.
For the 2012 Customer Services Survey, six survey questions were prepared and survey forms sent out to customers with their electricity bills in December 2012. The forms were received and analysed.
Whilst FEA is pleased with the improvement in its overall customer satisfaction level, it wishes to continually improve its level of service to customers. Accordingly, it has put in place appropriate action plans to address the areas for improvement highlighted in the survey. In the meantime, FEA is also investigating how it could improve the reliability of customer survey in future years to obtain views from a majority of its customers rather than a minority.
Prepay Customers
The online Syntel prepayment vending system is now being used by all prepayment vendors and there are a total of 25 prepayment vendors located in the Central and Western divisions. Customers can buy their tokens from any of these prepayment vendors. Through this online vending system the Authority is able to manage its prepay customers better. Most of the rural customers are metered using prepayment meters with installation of more than 1,778 prepayment meters in 2012.
Product Awareness
Awareness on energy savings and electrical safety tips were the main focus of FEA’s communication activities to its customers. Presentations were carried out in schools and communities to create awareness on energy savings and electrical safety. FEA made full use of its billing network to maximise the exposure of its safety messages by printing messages on the electricity bill itself and bill inserts.
19
Annual Report 2012 | Fij i Electricity Authority Annual Report 2012 | Fij i Electricity Authority
Visits were made to prospective rural customers in villages to complete customer documentation, provide information on energy conservation and electrical safety and training on how to use the prepayment meter prior to connection.
Television interviews and participation in radio talkback shows were carried out for creating public awareness and dissemination of information regarding the Authority’s operations.
A new format of the electricity bill was implemented in 2012 whereby the Consumer Security Deposit held in cash or Bank Guarantee by FEA for each customer’s account was clearly stated on the customer’s bill.
Demand Side Management
FEA carried out energy meter calibration of its top 150 customers Fiji Wide. This was the first of this kind of project undertaken by FEA as part of its value adding initiative to ensure that the Customer’s meters were functioning properly and recording correct consumption.
FEA also replaced 5,000 old energy meters installed at customers’ premises and will continue with this replacement of old energy meters during the next 5 years to ensure correct recording and billing of electricity consumption.
FEA continues to assist its customers to become more energy efficient by providing technical advice and billing data to those customers who request for such data. In 2012, the Demand Side Management Team of FEA carried out a walk-through energy audit for the FRCA complex in Nasese. A report outlining the energy management opportunities has been prepared for the customer.
FEA’s Reactive Metering Policy was strictly monitored during 2012 with reactive energy metered for those customers using excessive reactive energy and not complying with the power factor requirements as stipulated in the Electricity Act. Customers’ excessive reactive energy usage decreased by around 14.4% in 2012 when compared to 2011.
Electricity Tariff
There was no change in the electricity tariff for the year 2012. All domestic customers who used less than 75 unitspermonth(dailyaverage<=2.47units)weregiventhe Government subsidy of 17.64 cents per unit and this subsidy was given through their monthly bills. For
schools, the government subsidy of 14.25 cents per unit was given for the first 200 units they used in a month.
Due to the tariff increase in April 2011, a review of all consumer security deposits became necessary under the Electricity Act and resultantly was carried out and implemented in late 2011 and completed in 2012. The new consumer security deposits required were to be fully paid by May 2012. FEA then extended the time frame for payment of the additional consumer security deposit by 3 months for Commercial Customers and 6 months for Domestic customers due to the floods and financial difficulties faced by the customers at the beginning of 2012. Customers had the option of paying the additional consumer security deposit in cash or by providing a Bank Guarantee.

The advent of the new millennium saw human resources trusted to being the most strategic resource of any organization, and knowledge being the number one competitive edge. While some organizations treat these as cliché and go no more beyond lip service, the Fiji Electricity Authority arduously enhances the human capital capacity to face the future.
As we embraced this challenge, questions arose as to how to effectively implement this. Some of the key questions that needed to be answered included: How do we determine the optimum level of human resource required to achieve the organization’s vision, mission and values? How do we attract the best and be the employer of choice? What is the current human capital competency level? What strategies should we employ to ensure our human capital support organizational change programme? How do we best hone and enhance their capabilities? How do we best reward our performers and address the issue of non-performance?
While this list is not meant to be exhaustive, it spells out some of the challenges in making our human capital management a success. The first of these initiatives not only harnesses new ideas and innovative thinking from people all across the company, but more importantly it makes clear the value we place on innovative thinking. Experience has shown that the spark of an idea can eventually ignite a whole chain of innovative solutions that
2120
Fiji Electricity Authority | Annual Report 2012 Annual Report 2012 | Fij i Electricity Authority
enhance our reliability, reduce our costs, help to protect the environment, and make us a more competitive company.
The self-development program also represents a new paradigm in Human Resources. This initiative encourages employees to assume a more active role in their own development, and is part of a shift away from highly structured, traditional training and development programs, and towards the concept of continuous learning. Both of these programs are vital to the successful utilization of human capital. Today, technology is beginning to render traditional organizational boundaries meaningless with the creation of virtual communities of practice, cross-disciplinary knowledge sharing, and a greater flow of information and ideas then ever before.
Today’s business climate also underscores the premium that we all place on performance and productivity. That in turn forces us to recognize that truly productive employees take satisfaction in achieving meaningful goals, in providing for their families, but also in promoting the prosperity of their society. But even more important is the total value proposition of a job, which includes not only financial compensation but also opportunities for personal and professional growth, a healthy atmosphere at work, and a corporate culture and ethos aligned with the individual’s own value system. In the end, then, job satisfaction is largely the feeling of accomplishment that an employee enjoys at the close of the day or the end of a shift, knowing that he or she is making a tangible difference in the wider world.
Human Resources SBA took a quantum leap with its major achievements in order to connect with its people and be able to realize its Strategic Plan:
• Energizer introduced as a monthly newsletter,
• HR Team introduced a Friday wear T-shirt as Team Energizer,
• Turn around time in recruitment and selection,
• Turn around time in payroll processing from 3 days to 2 days,
• HR SBA Leadership Workshop in Nadi to map out Strategic Plans till 2015,
• Jointly coordinated corporate social responsibility,
• Introduction of a uniform email signature for all FEA Staff,
• Introduction of 5 Quality Circle Teams,
• Training records went online,
• Retiring Staff recognized with certificate and service plaque,
• Corporate Fun & Staff Recognition Day,
• Long Service Employees with 30 years of service were recognized,
• Entire organisation is on a Performance Management System.
Employee satisfaction comes only when a person’s activities and responsibilities are aligned with the overall mission of his or her organization. In other words, when human capital contributes to a company’s success, it enhances the institution’s ability to achieve its goals and meet its commitments. Each employee was paid out a performance pay based on his or her perfomance in 2011.
Employees with 30 years of service being recognised by FEA at the Corporate Fun Day held in December 2012.

Fiji Electricity Authority | Annual Report 2012 Annual Report 2012 | Fij i Electricity Authority
The Staff Turnover rate from 1st January 2012 to 31st December 2012 was 4.59% when compared to the same period in 2011 which was 4.95%. Note: Staff Turnover does not include those employees who were terminated by the Authority.
Training & Development
In 2012 the focus on training and development revolved around Mandatory Authorisation, Refresher training including Contractor Management, Safety Awareness Training, In-House Training, Technical Management Development Training and On-the-Job Training at Nadarivatu Hydro Project. Training represents an investment in performance hence the Training and Development Framework was designed to ensure that all training and development programs were aligned to the individual employee’s career development plans and the Authority’s succession plans and every single cent that was invested in training and development added value to the organization in alignment to the framework.
Two Training programs were conducted In-House for 20 nominated Power Utilities in the Pacific Region in Occupational Health and Safety (OHS), Power Generation, Network Operation and Maintenance Modules. In-House Training by FICAC team was conducted for 81 FEA employees in the three regions (Central/West/North) and is expected to continue in 2013 to cover all FEA employees. A total of 67 middle management employees underwent a Management Development Program in-house which was run by an external expert. The 33kV and 132kV Live Line teams Refresher training was also conducted by an external accredited Trainer. A total of 148 Training programs were conducted by the FEA Training team in 2012.
The Authority continues to engage practical attachees from the Fiji National University, University of the South Pacific and University of Fiji as part of their program requirement for graduates and who are registered by the National Employment Centre. This is an opportunity for the Authority to ensure that these practical attachees receive the relevant practical training and development in preparation for lucrative employment opportunities. The Authority continues to capture this opportunity to mitigate staff retention risks in all technical areas. The Authority accepts that the staff turnover in the technical areas will continue due to lucrative employment opportunities abroad. The Authority also accepts that it will never be able to compete with overseas employers in the terms and conditions of employment offered to the Authority’s employees.
The recruitment of 10 apprentices and 38 Trainee Line Mechanics was a step forward to ensure that skilled and competent employees are readily available to replace employees who leave the Authority over a period of time.
Furthermore, the Apprenticeship & Network Trainee Line Mechanics’ programs will ensure that the Authority would be able to identify the most competent employees with the right attitude and culture for further development in leadership roles within the organization. The Authority would consider the recruitment of additional apprentices and Trainee Line Mechanics in future. The Training
Department is now working with the various Strategic Business Units (SBUs) to develop individual employee training and development plans and we expect to fully implement this approach in 2013 and 2014 respectively.
The Authority has lodged its submission to register with the Fiji Higher Education Commission pursuant to Higher Education Promulgation 2008. It is the requirement of the Promulgation for all training providers to first acquire recognition and then register themselves with the Fiji Higher Education Commission.
Health, Safety & Environment
A comparative analysis of the Fiji Electricity Authority’s Health, Safety and Environment performance for the last 5 years proves that the year 2012 had been a volatile year for FEA in terms of record accident rates and cost. A total of 11 Lost Time Injuries (LTI) were recorded resulting in 87 Lost Days (LD). Lost Time Injury Frequency (LTIF) record was 8.24 against a target of 0 and a Best Practice benchmark of 5.4. Lost Time Injury Duration (LTID) recorded was 7.91 days against a target of 0 and a Best Practice benchmark of 4. Nil fatality was recorded in 2012.
On a positive note, a total of 1,064 corrective actions were identified arising out of Safety Visits, Hazard Reports and HSE committee meetings. By year end, 93% of these corrective action items were completed.
The FEA Board and Management staff fully appreciate the need to arrest these alarming figures and have put in place strategies to address this problem in 2013. Critical incidents have been thoroughly analyzed to identify the root cause of these accidents and improvement strategies have been developed to address the way FEA carries out its business in future to reduce the accident rate.
Preliminary discussions have been held with the Land Transport Authority and the Fiji Police Force to seek their contribution in assisting FEA reduce its vehicle accident rate. Both parties have indicated their willingness to offer their expertise in developing safe driving programs tailored to suit FEA’s needs. Further discussion will be made before a safe driving program is developed and implemented in 2013.
FEA is totally focused on a continuous improvement culture to achieve the ultimate goal, which is “SAFE PRODUCTION, ZERO INCIDENTS”.
In conclusion, from a business perspective, sustainability is a company’s ability to achieve its business goals and increase long-term value by integrating economic, environmental and social opportunities into its business strategies.
The Management mapped out some of the specific actions that the Human Resources Team will assist to develop these qualities: inculcating sustainability oriented values, helping to elicit senior management support for making sustainability central to business strategy, supporting the development of metrics and systems alignment around sustainability, and enabling the organization to achieve broad stakeholder engagement and holistic integration.

Water Management
The storage level at the Monasavu Dam at the beginning of 2012 was 741.17 metres above mean sea level (AMSL), which was 26.17 metres above the minimum safe operating level of 715 metres. The high water level was the result of above long term average rainfall received in the months of November and December 2011. Also this high water level enabled FEA to maximize its hydro operation and reduce the consumption of expensive thermal fuel in 2012.
Above-average rainfall during the months of February, April, July and December 2012 helped maintain the storage level to 739.66 metres AMSL at the end of the year after good usage of the water for power generation.
Total rainfall received at Monasavu in 2012 was 5,617mm compared with 4,925 mm in 2011. The lowest ever rainfall recorded was 3,540 mm in 2004.
In 2012, the FEA renewable power stations generated 532,070 Mega Watt-hours (MWh) of electricity (64.6%), thermal power stations 271,283 MWh of electricity (33%) and Independent Power Producers (IPPs) generated 19,451MWh of electricity (2.4%).
The average power generation mix for 2012 was 63.6% hydro, 33% diesel and heavy fuel oil, 1% wind with the remaining 2.4% provided by the Independent Power Producers (IPPs), namely Tropik Wood Industries Limited (TWIL) and Fiji Sugar Corporation (FSC). FEA replaced the short fall in the annual deemed supply from TWIL by burning expensive thermal fuel. In comparison, 55% was generated from hydro in 2011, 40% from diesel and heavy fuel oil, 1% from wind with the remaining 4% from TWIL and FSC.
The 9.3MW wood-fired co-generation plant of TWIL at its Drasa mill suffered a major boiler problem and produced only 4.87GWh of energy in 2012 out of a contracted quantity of 38.8GWh per annum. FEA is working closely with TWIL to ensure the plant is repaired at the earliest and is able to generate the deemed quantity of 38.8GWh annually. TWIL has informed FEA that the plant will be back in operation by November 2013.
Power System Reliability
Three internationally accepted performance indicators are used each year to measure FEA’s power system reliability:
• Theaverage total lengthof time that a customer iswithout power over a year is measured by the System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI). Against a target of maximum 750 minutes, the Authority achieved a SAIDI of 666 minutes in 2012.
• Theaveragenumberoftimesthatacustomer’spowersupply is interrupted in a year is measured by the System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI). Against a target of 15 times, the Authority achieved a SAIFI of 9 times in 2012.

• Theaverage time thatacustomer iswithoutpowerper interruption is measured by the Customer Average Interruption Duration Index (CAIDI). This index was some 74 minutes in 2012.
The main reasons for the power interruptions that occurred in 2012 were:
• Plannedmaintenanceworksonoverheadpowerlinesand underground cables (12%)
• Natural disasters e.g. flood, lightning, cyclone, etc. (73%)
• Faultsonpowerlinehardware(10%)and
• Vegetationinterferingwithpowerlines(5percent)
FEA needs to spend a substantial amount of funds to reinforce its power system in order to improve the reliability of power supply to be in line with international benchmarks for power utilities of similar size and nature.
The initiatives FEA is currently pursuing include:
• Live-linemaintenanceofitspowerlinesatallvoltagelevels;
• Effectivevegetationmanagementprogram;
• Useofappropriatetechnologytodetectdefectsthatcan be fixed on time and equipment that can restore power supply quickly; and
• Ensuringthatadequatesupplycapacityisavailabletomeet the demand for electricity at all times.

Profitability
FEA made a financial profit of $75.3M after tax in 2012, largely due to the excellent performance from the Monasavu Hydro Scheme, commissioning of the Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme and stringent measures put in place to control operational expenditure. This profit equates to a Return on Shareholder Funds (ROSF) of positive 13.6%.
The profit recorded for 2012 includes an income tax benefit of $13.5M as a result of the Ministry of Finance granting a 40% fuel investment allowance for the Nadarivatu Hydro Project. Had this allowance not been approved, FEA would have recorded an income tax expense of $12.4M in 2012 and this would have resulted in a profit after tax of $49.4M and a Return on Shareholder Funds (ROSF) of positive 9.4%.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for 2012 were $113.2M. This provided an EBITDA net interest coverage ratio of 4.8 times.
Revenue from electricity sales for 2012 was $290.4M compared to $288.7M in 2011, an increase of $1.7M. This was a result of the increase in electricity tariff for commercial and industrial customers which became applicable from 1st April 2011 and was applied throughout 2012.
Other operating revenue of $5.8M in 2012 was lower by $11M compared to the $16.8M earned in 2011. The $16.8M for 2011 included a one-off insurance claim for the diesel generator (G8) failure at Kinoya Power Station.
The total operating expenses of FEA excluding fuel costs, depreciation and amortization was $77.9M. This increased by $4M when compared with the $73.9M incurred in 2011. This is due to the two floods and Cyclone Evan restoration costs incurred by FEA in 2012.This cost was not budgeted for by FEA.
Depreciation expense increased by $4.6M in 2012 due to the depreciation for additional assets transferred from Capital Works in progress to the Fixed Assets Register in 2012 which included the newly built Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme which was commissioned in May 2012.
The net thermal fuel cost decreased substantially by $32.8M in 2012, from $137.9M in 2011 to $105.1M in 2012.This was due to maximizing hydro generation from the Monasavu Hydro Scheme together with the additional hydro generation from the newly built Nadarivatu Hydro Scheme. The thermal fuel cost accounted for 48% of FEA’s total operating expenses of $218M in 2012 compared with 57% in 2011.

Electricity generated from the thermal power stations decreased significantly by 68GWh in 2012. This was due to the good rainfall received at the Monasavu dam and commissioning of the Nadarivatu Hydro Project.
The Wailoa hydro power station generated 467GWh of energy in 2012, higher than the 425GWh that was recorded in 2011. Total quantity of IDO fuel burnt in 2012 was 30,694 tonnes and HFO fuel burnt was 28,302 tonnes, aggregating to 58,996 tonnes. In comparison, the total quantity of IDO fuel burnt in 2011 was 53,238 tonnes and HFO was 17,648 tonnes, aggregating to 70,886 tonnes.
The average price of IDO fuel was $2,057VEP per tonne in 2012 (against a budget price $1,900VEP per tonne) compared to an average price of $2,079VEP per tonne in 2011. The IDO price peaked at $2,274VEP per tonne in April 2012.The average price for HFO was $1,483VEP per tonne in 2012 (against a budget price $1,500VEP per tonne) compared with an average price of $1,542VEP per tonne in 2011.
Net financing costs increased by $7.1M in 2012 from $11.3M in 2011 to $18.4M in 2012. This is attributed to the new loans of around $13M raised by FEA in 2012 to fund new capital projects, funding for the Nadarivatu Hydro Project and the reduction in capitalised interest which ceased from 17th May 2012 as a result of the commissioning of the Nadarivatu Hydro Project.
Financial Strength
FEA’s gearing ratio, as measured by Debt to Debt plus Capital and Reserves excluding cash-in-hand, was 34.3% as at 31st December 2012, which was well within the international benchmark for power utilities of about 45%, despite incurring Capital Expenditure of around $55.9M in 2012 and raising new loans of around $13M.
The shareholder value of FEA was $552M at the end of 2012 which increased from $472M at the end of 2011 and $324.9M at the end of 2002. FEA’s total assets were worth $1.03B, a substantial increase from $983M in 2011 and $456.7M in 2002. This shows that FEA has added significant shareholder value over the last 10 years since the implementation of organisational reforms.
Capital Expenditure & Funding
FEA incurred a total of around $56M on capital projects in 2012, compared with $112M in 2011.This was made possible through the good cash flows generated in 2012 as a result of recording good profit throughout the year.The Capex of $56M was made up of the Nadarivatu Hydro Project and Wainisavulevu Weir Raising Project ($30M), Network Augmentation Projects ($8.1M), HFO Conversion Project at Vuda ($3.6M), purchase of FEA Head Office ($6.6M), purchase of 7x1.6MW Cummings Generator sets ($0.6M), Rural and Urban Reticulation works carried out in 2012 ($2.9M), Protection Upgrade works ($0.4M), replacement of motor vehicles ($1.9M), purchase of new energy meters ($1.3M) and other assets acquired in 2012 valued at $0.6M.

FEA acquired the necessary funding to complete the Nadarivatu Hydro Project in 2012. All the debt covenants imposed by lenders were satisfactorily met in 2012. This is essential to ensure that Government being the sovereign guarantor of the FEA loans is not exposed. FEA had a total debt portfolio of around $329M as at 31st December 2012. This debt has to be serviced and repaid over the next 15 years. Around $36M of the total debt is due in 2013, $25M in 2014 and $34M in 2015 in addition to FEA’s CAPEX plan of $58M for 2013, $67M in 2014 and $73M in 2015.
These commitments are tabulated below and shows that FEA will have to make handsome profits to be able to honour these financial commitments over this period.

2014$M
2015 $M
Debt 36 25 34
CAPEX 58 67 73
Total Cash 94 92 107
As shown in the table above, FEA’s financial performance over the next 3 years will be critical in determining how successfully it can fund the above commitments. It will have to keep aside cash surplus of at least $40M a year and this means that FEA has to record reasonable levels of profits to generate the necessary cash reserves required. Therefore, it is imperative that FEA adopt a business model that will achieve the desired profitability level to ensure that it remains financially sustainable over this period.
In view of FEA’s huge capital expenditure plan, the Ministry of Finance has approved the extension of the Government guarantee facility to the end of December 2013.
FEA called for tenders for the refinancing of US$30M of the China Development Bank (CDB) loan in the local financial market to take advantage of the prevailing high liquidity and low interest rates in the domestic market. FEA received very competitive bids from the local financial institutions. The refinancing of this loan onshore in Fijian dollars will also eliminate any foreign currency exposures attached to this loan. FEA also received an indicative bid from the European Investment Bank (EIB) in this regard. The loan refinancing tenders will be evaluated and a final award will be made in January 2013. Further, FEA successfully rolled over 2X$20M ANZ loans and refinanced 1x$20M BSP loan at lower interest rates resulting in interest savings to FEA in 2012. FEA’s average cost of borrowing was 6.8% per annum as at end of 2012 compared to 7.4% per annum for 2011.
FEA’s Power Development Plan for 2010 to 2020 has identified some Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution Projects that have to be developed to meet the increasing demand of electricity which is expected to grow rapidly over the years. The total investment required will be in excess of $1.5Billion over a period of 10 years. FEA’s contribution is estimated to be around F$1.15Billion with around $0.35Billion coming from private investors interested in developing the power generation sector.
The key driver in achieving this plan is to have the right electricity tariff level for FEA.
InternaL aUDIt anD rISk ManaGeMent
Internal Audit
The FEA recognizes its responsibility to maintain a sound and effective internal control system to protect the assets of the company and minimize operational risks.
The Internal Audit department plays a crucial role in monitoring the internal governance of the FEA. The Internal Audit department is responsible for independently reviewing the risks and controls of FEA, and for providing reasonable assurance to the Executive Management Team and the FEA Board that all risks and internal control weaknesses are being adequately addressed. The Head of Internal Audit department supervises the implementation of comprehensive audits in accordance with the Board approved audit plan and reviews the financial and operational procedures and practices of the company on a regular basis.
To ensure the independence of the Internal Audit function, the Internal Audit Department submits regular audit and risk reports to the Board Audit & Finance sub-committee.
In 2012, the Internal Audit Department reviewed the risks and controls of critical areas of the company which comprised of review of fleet, fuel and oil, capital projects, customer services, tenders, fixed assets, contracts, human resources, and financials (debtors, creditors, petty cash, and bank reconciliation). Internal audit also assisted in the review of financial and operational procedures for some of the key areas and conducted follow up audits on the implementation of audit recommendations.
The reports of the audits conducted by the Internal Audit Department determined irregularities and internal control deficiencies which were presented to the Audit & Finance sub-committee of the Board. As a result, a number of staff members were disciplined for breaches of policies and procedures of the Authority. As required, the policies and procedures of the Authority were reviewed and revised accordingly and thereafter implemented. Training was conducted to the employees of FEA on the new and revised policies and procedures.
Risk Management
The activities of the FEA are always exposed to various types of risks, such as financial risks and operational risks which may prevent the organisation from achieving or enhancing its corporate goals and objectives. Hence, policies and procedures are required to be developed and implemented to manage these risks effectively. FEA’s risk management process aims to identify the risks that may have an effect on fulfilling the company’s objectives, assesses the risks using appropriate quantitative and qualitative techniques and manages the risks at the desired level of risk appetite. The process applies across the whole organization whereby one of the key performance indicators for the FEA requires that risks be minimized and the risk levels be reduced.
2726
Fiji Electricity Authority | Annual Report 2012 Annual Report 2012 | Fij i Electricity Authority
In 2012, an annual review of the FEA’s Top Business Risks was undertaken which involved a review of the Authority’s Risk Register. The Risk Review highlighted some new potential risks to the Authority and at the same time indentified risks which the Authority had managed to mitigate and improve the risk levels. Action items were developed which were/will be implemented to mitigate the potential risks.
FEA also continued with the external Riscore Programme at its major critical sites namely Wailoa Power Station, Kinoya Power Station, Labasa Power Station, Vuda Power Station and the National Control Centre in its quest to manage the risks at these critical power facilities. All the five stations increased their Riscore scores where the improvement in scores for the five sites ranged from 8% to 10% which was a great achievement for FEA.
In addition to this, for the first time, FEA engaged the services of its Insurance Broker to compile detailed underwriting information for its major critical sites namely Wailoa Power Station, Kinoya Power Station, Labasa Power Station, Vuda Power Station and the National Control Centre to provide detailed information to the Insurers of FEA about the risk management strategies that FEA had deployed to manage its assets.
As a result, in September 2012, FEA successfully renewed its main insurance programme covering FEA’s assets including the Nadarivatu Hydro Power assets for another year at a reasonable premium despite the volatility in the insurance market after the insurers were satisfied with FEA’s business operations, including the level of maintenance of its assets and the controls that were in place to minimize or mitigate the risks.

Independent Power Producers (IPPs)
The Authority expects private investors or IPPs to invest in the power generation sector to assist the Authority achieve its mission of achieving 90% of its energy requirements through renewable sources by 2015.
Presently there are two IPPs supplying electricity to the FEA grid. They are Tropik Wood Industries Ltd (TWIL) in Drasa, Lautoka and FSC which supplies the FEA in Lautoka and Labasa during the crushing season for some six months. The TWIL suffered a major plant failure in March 2012 and as a result were not able to supply the contracted quantity in 2012. TWIL plant is expected to be back in operation in November 2013 .
FSC plans to supply FEA in Labasa throughout the year as from June/July 2013. In this regard, a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) will be signed between the two parties in 2013. Furthermore, FSC plans to establish a 40MW renewable energy plant in Rarawai in the next two to three years which will cater for the energy requirements of FSC Rarawai, as well as supply the energy requirements of Vatukoula Gold Mines and the surplus will be sold to FEA. Discussions on this project amongst the three parties are in progress.
In the last three to four years, FEA has signed some four PPAs with IPPs. Three IPPs are expected to commence operations in 2013 while the fourth one is expected to commence operations in 2015.
In the meantime, FEA continues to discuss other renewable projects with potential IPPs.

InForMatIon & CoMMUnICatIon teCHnoLoGY
An ICT system performance level of 99.905% was achieved in 2012, exceeding the target of 99.8%.
The virtualized IT environment not only greatly reduced the planned downtimes for server hardware maintenance but also enabled them to perform during work/off-peak hours, further containing the operational costs at a low level.
To enhance and improve the Organization’s communications, the Authority’s messaging legacy system MS Exchange 2003, which was installed and commissioned in 2004, was upgraded to Microsoft Exchange 2010.
With the increased confidence in the Virtualized IT Environment’s Performance, Security, Scalability and Reliability, further plans to capitalize on the initial investment is being formulated.
To further strengthen the FEA’s Radio Telephone (RT) network to support the transmission and distribution network grid extension, the following repeater sites were being developed: Nubuiloa Repeater in Vanua Levu, Nasinu Repeater in Tailevu, and the Nadarivatu Repeater in Nadarivatu. These new sites will complement our
existing Radio Repeaters that have been developed over the years thus ensuring the reliable RT communications in the service areas most of which were newly electrified Rural Electrification Projects in the remote areas. The repeater sites will be fully established by the end of 2013.
The performance of the SCADA system, which is utilised by the National Control Centre to operate the power system, was satisfactory in spite of some major problems encountered in the main server due to the availability of the Disaster Recovery system for failover.
The overall ICT performance was excellent enabling the superior performance of FEA as a whole in terms of delivering reliable electricity to the customers.
CoMMerCIaL
The FEA’s Commercial SBU has a total manpower of seventy seven (77) staff who make up the three operational portfolio units of Supply Chain, Regulatory and Registry.

InDepenDent aUDIt reportfor the Year Ended 31 December 2012
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of Fiji Electricity Authority (Authority), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2012, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in capital and reserves and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information as set out on pages 36 to 62.
Directors’ and Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Directors’ and management are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Electricity Act 1966. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Auditor’s Responsibility
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I have conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
I believe that the audit evidence that I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.
Audit Opinion
In my opinion:
a) proper books of account have been kept by the Fiji Electricity Authority, so far as it appears from my examination of those books; and
b) the accompanying financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards:
(i) are in agreement with the books of accounts;
(ii) to the best of my information and according to the explanations given to me:
a) give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Fiji Electricity Authority as at 31 December 2012 and of the results, movement in reserves and cash flows of the Authority for the year ended on that date; and
b) give the information required by the Electricity Act 1966 (Cap 180) in the manner so required.
I have obtained all the information and explanations which, to the best of my knowledge and belief, were necessary for the purposes of the audit.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Electricity Act 1966 (Cap 180) and International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
Issue of Financial Statements
The financial statements were approved for issue by the Authority’s Board of Directors at its meeting held on 24th April 2013.
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
In the application of IFRS, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Judgments made by management in the application of IFRS that have significant effects on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustments in the next year are disclosed, where applicable, in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events is reported.
Standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not yet effective
The following standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards have been published and are mandatory for the accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013 or later periods, but the Authority has not early adopted them. No significant impact is expected to arise out of these standards, amendments and interpretations.
• IFRS9(Amendment),‘FinancialInstruments-Classificationandmeasurement’.(1January2013)
• IAS12(Amendment)‘IncomeTaxes-Deferredtax’.(1January2013)
• IFRS13‘DisclosuresofFairValueMeasurement’.(1January2013)

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial statements:
(a) Allowance for doubtful debts
The Authority establishes an allowance for any doubtful debts based on a review of all outstanding amounts at year-end. Bad debts are written off during the period in which they are identified.
(b) Bond instruments
The bonds issued are recorded at cost which reflects the face value of these instruments.Transaction costs on the issue of bond instruments are capitalised and amortised to the statement of comprehensive income over the currency life of the bond instruments. Transaction costs are the costs that are incurred directly in connection with the issue of those bond instruments and which would not have been incurred had those instruments not been issued.
(c) Borrowings
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Authority has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
(d) Borrowing costs
The borrowing costs that are directly attributable to major capital expenditures and projects under construction are capitalized as part of the cost of these assets. Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the year in which they are incurred.
The government guarantee fees on loans drawdown specifically for capital projects are capitalised. Other guarantee fees paid are expensed.
(e) Capital contribution
A 100% refundable capital contribution represents the cost of the extension, received from the developer or a prospective consumer. The cost of the extension is the estimated cost incurred from the Authority’s nearest mains supply point capable of providing the assessed load required. The developer or a prospective consumer applying for a general extension provides a 100% refundable capital contribution in relation to the cost of the extension which is credited to trade and other payables and is refunded to the customer over a period of 5 and 8 years. This is in accordance with the determination by the Fiji Commerce Commission.
(f) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, short term deposits held with banks and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings under current liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.
(g) Comparative figures
Where necessary, amounts relating to prior years have been reclassified to facilitate comparison and achieve consistency in disclosure with current year amounts.
(h) Deferred income
Government grant in aid and assets acquired at no cost to the Authority are capitalised and systematically recognised as other income on the basis of the expected lives of the assets to which the grants relate.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(i) Employee benefits
i) Annual leave
The provision for annual leave represents the amount which the Authority has a present obligation to pay for employees’ services provided up to the balance date. The provision has been calculated on the current wage and salary rate.
ii) Long service leave
The liability is determined by the conditions of employment, employees’ services provided up to the balance date and is calculated on the current wage and salary rate.
iii) Retirement benefit
The liability is determined by the conditions of employment, employees’ services provided up to the balance date and is calculated on the current wage and salary rate.
With the implementation of the Essential National Industries Decree, with effect from 7th November 2011, all the Long Service Leave and Retirement Benefit Entitlements for employees have ceased. The benefits accrued up to 7th November 2011 were fully settled to the employees in 2012.
iv) Perfomance pay
The Authority maintains a Perfomance Management System which is used to remunerate employees based on the achievement of some Key Perfomance Indicators (KPIs). These KPIs are established based on predetermined objectives of the Authority. The liability is measured at the wage or salary rates prevailing at year end.
(j) Foreign currency translation
Transactions denominated in a foreign currency are translated to Fiji currency at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency receivables and payables at balance date are translated to Fiji currency at exchange rates current at balance date.
All gains and losses arising there-from (realised and unrealised) are brought to account in determining the profit or loss for the year.
(k) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is based on the weighted average cost principle and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the stock and bringing it to its existing condition and location. Consumables are valued at cost plus the associated delivery charges.
(l) Impairment of assets
At each balance sheet date, the Authority reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Authority estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

(m) Intangible assets
a) Investments in movie productions
Investment in movie productions have been valued at cost and reduced by an impairment charge to arrive at a carrying amount the Authority expects to recover from the exploitation of the copyright in accordance with the Production Investment Agreement.
b) Computer software
Acquired computer software licenses are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives (three to five years).
Costs associated with developing or maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs that are directly associated with the development of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Authority, and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets.
(n) Leased assets
Fiji Electricity Authority, the Monasavu landowners and the iTaukei Land Trust Board (iTLTB) have in 2005 signed an agreement to lease approximately 23,000 acres of the Monasavu catchment area for a period of 99 years in return for specified payments. These lease committments are disclosed under note 19 to the financial statements.
(o) Payables
Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognised when the Authority becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services.
(p) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. Cost of leasehold land includes initial premium payment or price paid to acquire leasehold land including acquisition costs.
Additions
While expenditure on assets with a value of less than $1,000 is generally not capitalised, physical control is maintained over all items regardless of cost.

(p) Property, plant and equipment (Cont’d)
Depreciation rates
Depreciation is calculated on the straight line method to write off the cost of each asset over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Rates
Leasehold land 0.50% - 1.25%
Buildings - Concrete 1.25%
Buildings - Others 1.25%
Hydro Assets - Dams 1.33% - 2.50%
Hydro Assets - Tunnels 1.33% - 2.44%
Hydro Assets - Plant and Machinery 2.50% - 3.00%
Thermal assets 4.00% - 7.00%
Transmission 2.50%
Communication system & control 2.86%
Reticulation 4.00%
Wind Mill 5.00%
Furniture & fittings 7.00% - 24.00%
Motor vehicles 20.00%
Computers 33.30%
Other fixed assets except for capital spares, are depreciated when they are brought into service.
Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold land is amortised over the remaining lease period.
Capital spares
Capital spares represent items held primarily for use in thermal stations in the event of a breakdown. In recognition of the increased risk of obsolescence over a protracted period, capital spares are amortised in line with the depreciation rates applicable to the related plant and machinery. Capital spares are reported as part of Authority’s fixed assets.
Disposals
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts and are included in the statement of comprehensive income.
Repairs and maintenance
Repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred. The cost of major renovations is included in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset will flow to the Authority. Major renovations are depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(q) Provisions
Provisions are recognised:
- When the Authority has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events;
- It is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and
- The amount can be reliably estimated.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.
(r) Reporting currency
All figures are reported in Fiji currency.
(s) Revenue recognition
Electricity income
Electricity income is recorded in the statement of comprehensive income on an accrual basis by estimating the usage for customers to balance date.
Other income
Rental income earned from leasing FEA properties is recorded in the statement of comprehensive income on an accrual basis.
Interest income is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial asset.
(t) Rounding off amounts
Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars unless specifically stated to be otherwise.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(u) Taxation
Current tax:
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the year. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior years is recognised as a liability or asset to the extent that it is unpaid or refundable.
Deferred tax:
Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items.
In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the periods when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Authority expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Authority intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Current and deferred tax for the period:
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the statement of comprehensive income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill or excess.
(v) Segment information
The Authority is not required to report segment information as it is not applicable to the nature of the Authority’s operations. Whilst electricity revenue is distinguished by key operating segments, this is done purely for information purposes. The Authority has only one product in electricity, and costs associated with this product are totally common to all operating segments, and it is not possible nor practical to attempt to allocate costs across the operating segments. The Authority’s power generating system and distribution are operated on a fully integrated basis.
(w) value Added Tax (vAT)
Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are recognised net of the amount of value added tax (VAT), except:
i) Where the amount of VAT incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or
ii) for trade receivables and trade payables which are recognised inclusive of VAT.
The net amount of VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
2.1 Financial risk factors
The Authority’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Authority’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Authority’s financial performance. The Authority does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative finan-cial instruments, for speculative purposes. The Authority’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.
(a) Market risk
(i) Foreign exchange risk
The Authority undertakes various transactions denominated in foreign currencies, hence exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. Exchange rate exposures are closely managed within approved policy parameters.
As at year end, US$10.08M are the only assets denominated in foreign currencies. Hence, changes in the US dollars by 10% (increase or decrease) is expected to have significant impact on the net profit and equity bal-ances currently reflected in the Authority’s financial statements.
Average Financial Assets exchange rate Financial Assets (US$’000) Rate (USD) (F$’000)
31 December 2012 (Actual) US$10,080 0.5595 18,016
Exchange rates - strengthen by 10% US$10,080 0.6155 16,377
Exchange rates - weaken by 10% US$10,080 0.5036 20,016
Based on the above, if average exchange rates strengthen by 10% the Authority’s investments in financial assets
would decrease by $1.64M and if the average exchange rates weaken by 10% the Authority’s investments in financial assets would increase by $2M.
However, a risk arises on the Authority’s obligation with respect to the foreign currency loan of US$64.17million (2011: US$70M) which remains outstanding as at year end. For the year ended 31 December 2012, the restate-ment of the Authority’s foreign currency loans has resulted in an unrealised foreign currency gain of $2.13M, net. Further sensitivities are provided to establish the impact to the profit before tax if foreign currency exchange rate differs by 10% (increase or decrease) from that used at balance date:
Foreign currency Average Foreign currency borrowings exchange rate borrowings (US$’000) Rate (USD) (F$000)
31 December 2012 (Actual) US$64,167 0.5595 114,686
Exchange rates - strengthen by 10% US$64,167 0.6155 104,252
Exchange rates - weaken by 10% US$64,167 0.5036 127,417
Based on the above, if average exchange rates strengthen by 10% the Authority’s foreign currency borrowings would decrease by $10.44M and if the average exchange rates weaken by 10% the Authority’s foreign currency borrowings would increase by $12.73M. The Authority has tendered to refinance US$30M of the above loan balance locally in Fijian Dollars. This will reduce the impact of any foreign currency fluctuation attached to the above foreign currency loan.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D)
2.1 Financial risk factors (Cont’d)
(a) Market risk (Cont’d)
(i) Foreign exchange risk (Cont’d)
As at balance date, the Authority has paid US$112.4M of the total contract amount of US$124.8M to Sinohydro Corporation Limited for the construction of the Nadarivatu Renewable Hydro Project. Therefore, changes in the US dollars by 10% (increase/decrease) will not have significant impact on the cost of the Nadarivatu Renewable Hydro Project.
The Authority enters into forward foreign exchange contracts on a selective basis to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risk.
Forward exchange contracts are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently restated to their fair value at each reporting date. These forward exchange contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting. However, there were no outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts as at 31 December 2012.
(ii) Price risk
The Authority does not have investments in equity securities and hence is not exposed to equity securities price risk. However, the Authority is exposed to commodity price risk in the form of fuel purchased through a local agent from offshore. The volatility on international fuel prices and its impact on FEA’s profitability is given below considering two scenarios based on price, quantity mix, demand growth and hydro availability:
Average Fuel Price Consumption Fuel costs (F$/Metric Tonne) (Metric Tonne) $’000
31 December 2012 (Actual) 1,782.10 58,996 105,136
Fuel price-Increase by 10% 1,960.30 58,996 115,650
Fuel Price-Decrease by 10% 1,603.89 58,996 94,622
Based on the above, if fuel price increase or decrease by 10%, the fuel costs to the Authority would increase or decrease by $10.5M annually. The above sensitivity calculation is based on the 2012 fuel consumption levels.
(iii) Regulatory risk
The Authority’s profitability can be significantly impacted by regulatory agencies established which govern and control the electricity sector in Fiji. Specifically, fuel surcharges, regulatory fees and electricity tariffs are regulated by the Fiji Commerce Commission.
(iv) Interest rate risk
The Authority has significant interest-bearing assets in the form of short-term cash deposits. These are at fixed interest rates and hence there are no interest rate risks during the period of investment. For re-investment of short and long term cash deposits, the Authority negotiates an appropriate interest rate with the banks and invests with the bank which offers the highest interest return.
Given the fixed nature of interest rates described above, the Authority has a high level of certainty over the im-pact on cash flows arising from interest income. Accordingly, the Authority does not require simulations to be performed over impact on net profits arising from changes in interest rates.
All debts of the Authority raised through bond issues bear fixed interest rates. Therefore, the Authority is not exposed to interest rate risk.
In relation to the borrowings from Suva City Council, the Authority is not exposed to interest rate risk as it bor-rows funds at fixed interest rates.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D)
2.1 Financial risk factors (Cont’d)
(a) Market risk (Cont’d)
(iv) Interest rate risk (Cont’d)
In relation to the borrowings from other commercial banks, the Authority to certain extent is not exposed to in-terest rate risk as certain borrowed funds are at fixed interest rates, for the agreed term. Thereafter, the interest rates are re-negotiated and new interest rates are agreed upon. The risk is managed closely within the approved policy parameters.
The Authority did not enter into any interest swap contracts.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk arises from deposits with banks, as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables. For deposits with banks, only reputable parties with known sound financial standing are accepted. Trade accounts receivable consist of a large number of customers, residential, industrial and commercial. The Authority does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of coun-terparties having similar characteristics. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial state-ments, net of any allowances for losses, represents the Authority’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
(c) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash to ensure availability of funding. The Au-thority monitors liquidity through rolling forecasts of the Authority’s cash flow position. Overall, the Authority does not see liquidity risk as high given that a reasonable portion of revenues are billed and collected.
The table below analyses the Authority’s financial assets and liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are based on the contractual undiscounted cash flows.
Fair value estimation
The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The carrying values of financial liabilities and financial assets and provisions are estimated to approximate their fair values.

3 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES, JUDGMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Authority makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
(a) Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The Authority assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all property, plant and equipment at each reporting date. Property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment and when there are indicators that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, reasonable provision for impairment are created. As at balance date, no provision for impairment has been made as the Authority reasonably believes that no indicators for impairment exist.
(b) Impairment of accounts receivable
Impairment of accounts receivable balances is assessed at an individual level and impairment tests are per-formed on a more specific basis. All receivable balances relating to the closed customer accounts are estimated to have been impaired and are accordingly provided for.
(c) Deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all unused tax losses to the extent that taxable profits will be available against which the losses can be utilized. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely level of future taxable profits together with future planning strategies.
(d) Provision for stock obsolescence
Provision for stock obsolescence is assessed and raised on a specific basis based on a review of inventories. Inventories considered obsolete or un-serviceable are written off in the year in which they are identified.
(e) Customer security deposits
The customer security deposits are classified as current and non current based on the Authority’s past experi-ence with the refund of the deposit to customers.
4 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Authority’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Authority’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns and benefits for stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
The Authority monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including ‘current and non-current borrowings’ as shown in the statement of financial position) less cash and cash equivalents and short term deposits. Total capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the statement of financial position plus net debt.
The gearing ratios at 31 December 2012 and 2011 were as follows:
2012 2011 $’000 $’000
Total borrowings (Note 16) 328,778 359,285
Less: Held to maturity financial assets (Note 12) (11,883) (23,409)
Less: Cash on hand and at bank (28,781) (3,640)
Net debt 288,114 332,236
Total capital and reserves 551,894 472,052
Total capital (total capital and reserves plus net debt) 840,008 804,288
Gearing ratio (net debt / total capital and reserves x 100) 34.30% 41.31%
The movement in the gearing ratio during 2012 resulted primarily from the net repayments of borrowings of $41.3M and the increase in capital and reserves as a result of the significant profit recorded during the year.

Total receivables and prepayments net 33,732 42,888
The terms of trade for electricity debtors are 14 days from the date of billing.
Electricity debtors that are less than 3 months past due are not considered impaired. As at 31 December 2012, electricity debtors of $24,478,466 (2011: $24,868,896) were not considered impaired.
As of 31 December 2012, the amount of electricity debtors impaired was $276,609 (2011: $178,216) net off de-posits held. The individual receivables are mainly customers, who have defaulted in payments. It was assessed that a portion of the receivables are expected to be recovered.
Movements in the provision for impairment of electricity debtors and other debtors are as follows:
Balance as at 1 January 212 242
Amounts allowed/(recovered) during the year 98 (30)
Balance as at 31 December 310 212
The creation and releasing of provision for impaired receivables has been included in “Other operating expenses” in the statement of comprehensive income (Note 6). Amounts charged to the allowance account are generally written off, when there is no expectation of recovering the debt.
The other classes within receivables and prepayments do not contain impaired assets.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the fair value of each classes of receivables men-tioned above less electricity deposits. The Authority generally obtains security deposits in the form of bank guarantees and cash deposits from all electricity customers which is estimated based on two months electricity consumptions. The total carrying amount of security deposits in relation to the above trade receivables carried by the Authority is $34,248,056 (2011: $23,703,004). The rest are secured through bank guarantees maintained by the Authority. A portion of this security deposit is refunded to customers on daily basis.

This is refunded to the customer when the electricity account is permanently closed. The general extension refundable deposits are the capital contribution from prospective customers or developer for the supply of electricity from FEA’s nearest grid in accordance with the General Extension Policy. The amount is refunded to the customer over a period of 5 and 8 years.
