Positioning of DFIs within the financial system
• Non-commercial focus
• Fiscal transfers and grants
• Development objectives (social)
Government / NGOs
• High commercial focus
• Private sector capital
• Financial objectives
• Known risks
Commercial Financiers
• Commercial and development focus
• Sharing risk
• Internally generated funds, government funds, loans
DFIs (e.g. IDC)
Greater importance on financial objectives
Greater importance on social and developmental objectives
DFIs should not compete with other institutions, but should
instead encourage cooperation to achieve its goals
Partnering for industrial development
IDC
• 75 years of experience in industrial development
• Appetite to take risk
• Early stage investment
• Financial muscle
• Targeted funding for specific interventions
Industrialists/ Entrepreneurs
• Investment plans
• Projects under development
• Technology
• Operating/management expertiseLong-term view on
investments and a
commitment for the
development of the
industry
Introducing IDCHistorical perspective
• World War 2 – Shortage
of industrial goods
• South African economy
largely based on
agricultural production
and gold mining
1940s
• IDC established to
provide financing for
industrial undertakings –
at this stage only in the
manufacturing industry
• Food processing;
• Textiles
• South Africa facing
threat of isolation from
the rest of the world
1950s & 1960s
• Securing energy
resources for South
Africa a priority
• Increasing natural
resource beneficiation
• Petroleum
• Fertilizers
• Wood processing
• Chemical beneficiation
• Mining and minerals
• Decentralisation policy
by government
• Increasing isolation
• Self sufficiency
• Balance of payments
1970s & 1980s
• Import replacement
• More resource intensive
industries established –
mainly to bolster export
earnings in non-gold
sectors
• Initiation of high-tech
industries
• Agriculture explored as
a foreign exchange
earner
• Industrial real estate
development
• Resource beneficiation
• Micro-electronics
• Change in government
• South Africa introduced
to a globalising world
• Addressing the
disparities created by
apartheid
1990s
• Moves to encourage
regional integration
• Black economic
empowerment
• Export promotion
• Services related
industries
• Investments elsewhere
in Africa
• Tourism
• ICT
• Unemployment
• Diversification of
economy
• Reducing inequalities
• Infrastructure
constraints
Early and mid 2000s
• Job creation
• Developing rural areas
and other previously
underdeveloped regions
• Downstream industries
• Entrepreneurial
development
• Sector strategies
• Film
• Franchising
• Healthcare
• Financial services
• Transport
• Construction
• Industrial infrastructure
Over its history, IDC has adapted to
South Africa’s changing priorities and
expanded into new industries as the
economy developed and policies
evolved
Late 2000s & 2010s
• Recession
• New Growth Path and
Industrial policy
• Mandate overlap of
DFIs
• Growing financial sector
liquidity
• Climate change
• Focus on NGP,IPAP2 &
NDP
• Phasing out funding to
service industries not
aligned to priorities
• Job creation through
development of key
sectors/value chains
• Expansionary and
broad-based BEE
• Funding to distressed
companies
• Green-industries
• Phasing out:
– Franchising
– Financial services
– Transport
–Construction
Introducing the UnitIndustrial Infrastructure
• Established in April 2015
• Enabling industrial development through infrastructure investments
• Mainly driven by IDC value chains
1) Energy
– Renewable energy
– Fuel based energy
– Energy efficiency
– Base load energy
– Biofuels
2) Logistics, Water and Telecoms Infrastructure
– Telecoms and broadband
– Water infrastructure
– Rail, road, warehousing
– Industrial hubs etc.
A value chain approach apply with emphasis on industrial development
(including localisation) and job creation
Role: Industrial Infrastructure
Objectives
• Support specific infrastructure that unlocks or enables industrial capacity development and economic
opportunities
• Ensure that Value Chain projects have all the necessary infrastructure requirements to achieve their
developmental outcomes
Approach
• Support private sector or PPP industrial infrastructure where it is necessary to specific projects within IDC value
chains or New Industries or targeted industrial capacity building
• Play a coordination role to ensure that requisite infrastructure is funded and developed by other funders
• Invest selectively in strategic, economy wide, large scale interventions
Measures of success
• No Core VC projects delayed by infrastructure requirements
• Total disbursement amount facilitated by actively influencing other funders
• Number of direct and indirect jobs unlocked through infrastructure investments
• Quality of portfolio
Role: Industrial Infrastructure (cont’d)
Focus Areas
• Energy: Renewable Energy, Base load (Coal and Gas), Fuel Based Energy (Waste to Energy, Cogeneration),
Energy Efficiency (Grid), Biofuels
• Logistics: Industrial Hubs, Rail, Aerial Ropeways, Port, Pipelines (excl. oil & gas), ICT Broadband, Transmission
Lines, Maritime (Operation Phakisa), Road Corridors, etc.
Proactive Strategies
• Relieve electricity demand pressure on the grid through implementation of new energy capacity
• Optimisation of Energy Efficiency interventions to reduce energy consumption and pressure on the grid
• Ensure logistics system that will allow local industries to be competitive and be able to access new markets/
suppliers in the RoA and be globally competitive
• Introduction of the biofuels sector in the RSA economy through the development and execution of the Cradock
Ethanol Plant
Reactive Strategies
• Providing strategic input to water development
• Providing Strategic & Technical input to the SIP18 projects and influencing government in policy formulation/
review
• Increase existing broadband network capacity/redundancy and extend coverage to underserved areas

IDC’s approach:
• Project developer
• Community funding (2.5%
free carry)
• BEE funding with operational
involvement
• Debt and or/sub debt
funding with a combination
of BBBEE and/or BEE
IDCs participation in debt provide:
• Bigger ZAR value participation for IDC per deal
• Duty of care to IDC from lender technical and legal consultants
• Appreciation by market that IDC shares risk
• Additional liquidity to the commercial lending pool

Green FBE (WtE):Attractiveness of fuel based green energy
• Storage and flexibility of dispatch, so Load Factor of 80 % and even 2x (stored biogas at night)
• Can be moved, so can be used as high value transport fuel or can enable reliable off-grid or back-up power
• Can be used as a peaking plant
• Risk – feedstock can become a commodity & increased prices.
Fuel Based Energy
In SA competes with low value
coal
Best use for biogas lies in the
Transport sector in SA, in back-
up power, off-grid or for weak
grid in Africa

Feedstock (Fuel) security:
• No feedstock security, no start
• Challenge: Long term supply agreement to cover
debt tenure + 2 years
• Quality, quantity, price & period
• MFMA requirements for municipalities
Process/Investment options:
• Driven by feedstock qualities, quantities term and
off take options
• Typical cost R15-35m/MW
• High load factors (e.g. 90%)
Offtakes:
• Low O&M cost
• If Offtake/feedstock price strong
• Repay debt quickly

Energy Efficiency:IDC response - Innovative funding GEEF & AfD
Renewable Energy: Its role in terms of SA energy mix & economy
• Diversification of SA’s generation mix which is predominantly coal
• Emissions and pollution mitigation
• Localisation of manufacturing capacity and sourcing of local components – IDC
requires PV panels and inverters to be locally sourced
• Regional and rural development and diversification of economy (e.g. in Northern
Cape and Eastern Cape)
• Job creation during construction and operation phase (> 10 years)
• Substantial private sector expertise which has benefited skills development
objectives of the country
• Competitive industry that has benefited the country through competitive prices.
Renewable Energy:Where to from here?
• Continue to support projects that are aligned to our strategic imperatives (new
generation capacity)
• However more focus is on projects that provide a differentiated participation e.g.
supporting black developers and operators, have significant localisation
opportunities
• Support projects that have new technologies where IDC will provide a catalytic
role
• Have high appetite for projects in marginalised provinces – achieve regional
equity
