With the Mediterranean Basin attractingaround 200mn visitors every year. The WorldBank recently organised a regionalconference on ‘Regional Development andTourism Transition in a Changing Climate inthe Mediterranean’ to discuss this issue inthe lead-up to the 22nd Conference of theParties on climate change (COP 22).

The conference on development andtourism, held in Marrakech in associationwith the Hassan II Academy of Science andTechnology and a number of Moroccanuniversities and Mediterranean andinternational research centres, discussedrecent research into climate change coveringthe Middle East and North Africa (MENA),specifically looking at how the region hasbeen affected by climate change and howthe climate threat may escalate. Thesestudies warn that the price of inaction willbe high with a 10 per centt reduction in thesupply of running water by 2050 combinedwith increasing recurrent droughts and asurge in temperatures.

The Maghreb countries, with theirparticularly tourism-dependent economiesand especially acute water shortages in thesummer, have used this and other events tocall for more sustainable, rational waterresource management to guarantee aconstant supply in tourism destinations.

At the event, tourism sector experts andclimate change scientists met to considerhow to make sector policy-making moreclimate smart.

As Taoufiq Bennouna, World Bank seniorenvironment specialist, put it, there is a need“to raise stakeholder awareness tomainstream climate change into regionaldevelopment policies” and make the tourismsector a driver for development to reducethe pressure on natural resources and form areal source of income for the populationsand economies.”

Johnson Controls has installed two custom-built Frick ammonia water chillers at theBulyanhulu gold mine just south of Lake Victoria in Tanzania. The chillers supplychilled water to a surface bulk air cooler (BAC) at a second ventilation shaft developedto service Bulyanhulu’s extended mining operations. The installation, designed andconstructed by BBE Projects, will assist the mine to ensure continued safe workingconditions. Richard Gundersen, director at BBE Projects, “The chillers allow us todeliver cooled air to the working face 1,000m below ground where rock temperaturescan reach 50° Celsius. The BAC uses water from the chillers on the surface to cool theair sent down the shaft to 8°C. By the time the air reaches the mine workings it haswarmed to 20°C, which still provides sufficient cooling to allow operations to proceed.”

The Wits University Joburg Centre for Software Engineering (JCSE) has launched itsseventh consecutive skills trends survey in the South African information andcommunications technology (ICT) sector. The survey is part of the JCSE’s continuouseffort to create a meaningful representation of South Africa’s ICT skills landscape andprovide an outline of the current skills priorities and gaps in the sector.

Adrian Schofield, the JCSE’s manager of Applied Research and author of the report,says South Africa continues to fall behind its African peers while the state of the local

economy sees the sector’s clients cut back their own expenditures. He adds that the lackof improvement in South Africa’s basic education remains a major concern. “Exposure toand familiarity with ICT for all learners is essential. Some laudable initiatives haveappeared, such as the use of tablets in Gauteng schools, but they have yet to reach asustained, critical mass for all grades of learners.”

Trends in technology adoption place increasing emphasis on ICT sub-sectors such ascloud; big data/analytics; mobile; security and the Internet of Things.

Technology and services supplier Bosch hasopened its first Calibration Centre inJohannesburg, South Africa. The new centrewill not only service Bosch power tools, but alsocalibrate Bosch measuring instruments fromnow on. The importance of calibration is due tothe fact that it improves the accuracy ofmeasuring instruments.

“Accurate measuring instruments, in turn,improve both work and product quality,”commented Bosch Power Tools brand managerSebastian Johannes. “The hidden costs and risksassociated with uncalibrated measuringinstruments can be much higher than the costof calibration itself.”

It is recommended that all measuringinstruments are calibrated by a reputablecompany in order to ensure that anymeasurement errors are within the acceptable

range. The following Bosch products can becalibrated at the Calibration Centre: all line andpoint lasers, optical levels, rotating lasers andreceivers. Calibration entails a comparisonbetween a known measurement (the standard)and the measurement derived from aparticular instrument.

“This is done to determine if an instrument’saccuracy is within the acceptable accuracyrange specified in the user manual,” Johannes explained. He adds that instrumentsneed to be calibrated once a year, as theaccuracy degrades over time due to normalwear-and-tear.

It is also advisable to have instrumentsrecalibrated following any hard knock or fall,or if operated or stored outside the operatingor storage temperature range, as specified inthe technical data or user manual.

More than 10,000 people attended aceremony recently to markconstruction of Houndé Project sitemanaged by Endeavour MiningCorporation in Burkina Faso.Construction began in April 2016 andis progressing on-time and on-budget,with the first gold pour expectedduring the fourth quarter of 2017.

The ceremony celebrated animportant milestone for bothEndeavour and the Government ofBurkina Faso, as Houndé is expectedto become the company’s flagship low-cost mine and a prominent minewithin the country. Those attending the ceremony included the President of Burkina Faso, the PrimeMinister, the Minister of Energy, Mines and Carriers, numerous other Government ministers, officialsand diplomats, senior community representatives and members, as well as Endeavour’s executivemanagement, its Chairman of the Board, and Houndé employees.

Roch Marc Christian Kaboré, President of Burkina Faso, said, “We welcome Endeavour’s investmentin Burkina Faso, and the company’s decision to make a long-term commitment to our country. Thisreflects the favourable investment environment that Burkina Faso has created for the mining sector,and is a strong signal of the future health of the gold mining industry in our country. The Houndédevelopment will create hundreds of jobs, both directly in mining and also ancillary services, and theassociated prosperity will raise living standards throughout the surrounding district. With the HoundéProject and the Karma mine, Endeavour Mining is becoming a key partner for our country.”

Alpha Oumar Dissa, Minister of Energy, Mines and Carriers, added, “We are extremely pleased withthe advancement of the Houndé project, which demonstrates that the Houndé belt is amongst theworld’s most prosperous gold mining regions. We look forward to continue to work closely withEndeavour and the surrounding communities as they bring this flagship project to life. Congratulationsto everyone involved, I know the Houndé Mine will benefit the Tuy region for generations to come.”

A recent workshop on the Future of MoneyTransfers conducted by TerraPay and ARTF inBrazzaville and Pointe-Noire established thatthere are significant new opportunities indigital payments services - and that, likemost African economies, Congo is registeringstrong demand for digital paymentsproducts, and particularly international andcross-border money transfers.

Congo’s payment landscape is dotted withmultiple money transfer operators, cateringto a wide base of banked and unbankedconsumer segments. The services, however,operate in silos and the resultant marketfragmentation constrains the pace ofdigitalisation. Industry influencers -representing a cross-section of banks, mobilemoney service providers, regulators andmoney transfer operators - gathered toexchange ideas on interoperating paymentservices. In Congo, with a 13 per cent bankedpopulation, the opportunity includescapturing greater value from existingcustomers, as well as expanding the currentaddressable market to target previousfinancially marginalised customers.

Ambar Sur, founder and CEO of TerraPay,aid, “Ubiquity and trust are two importantdimensions to make any payments systemrelevant and valuable for users. Paymentsare a volume-driven business requiringsubstantial scale to make a profit due to lowmargins. The share of electronic payments isless than three per cent of total paymentsmarket in Congo. Yet service providerscompete for the three per cent share of themarket rather than collaborate to capturethe 97 per cent dominated by cash. Cash issuccessful as it is fully interoperable andcustomers can use it anywhere. Forelectronic payments, to effectively competewith cash, they must be simple,interoperable, and easy to use and made forthe consumer.”

Telecoms group Orange and its Senegal-based partner Sonatel have completed the acquisition of 100 percent of the mobile operator Airtel in Sierra Leone. Airtel has over 1.3mn customers (on the basis of activecustomers within a 30-day period) for a total population of 6.3mn people.

With a mobile penetration of around 50 per cent of the population, Sierra Leone offers considerablegrowth potential, particularly at a time when significant investments are underway to extend the operator’s3G network. This network, which already offers good coverage in Freetown and other major towns in SierraLeone, is set to provide internet access to customers living outside major urban areas.

Investments planned in the coming years should enable customers in Sierra Leone to benefit from thesupport of the Sonatel group and take advantage of the Orange group’s expertise in the digital ecosystem.

Founder of Computer Warehouse Group and entrepreneur in residence at New York’s Columbia Business School,Austin Okere looks beyond the oil price collapse towards post-recovery diversification and growth


According to Austin Okere,founder of ComputerWarehouse Group (CWG) and

entrepreneur in residence atColumbia Business School in NewYork, Nigerian administrationsand enterprises could have mademuch capital from the nation’s oilwindfalls. Of the failure tocapitalise on the nation’s oileconomy, he said, “Nigeria, by farthe biggest producer in Africawith 2.5mn barrels per day(mbpd), has only managed foreignreserves of US$28bn and asovereign wealth fund of a paltryUS$2.9bn.”Mr Okere compares the

performance of the mosteconomically dynamic West Africannation with North Africa’s largesteconomic territory, Algeria - thesecond biggest African oil producer,producing 1.9mbpd, hasaccumulated foreign reserves ofUS$156bn and manages a sovereignwealth fund worth US$50bn.

Positive economic prospectsIn these terms, it may seem thatNigeria has not managed its oilwealth effectively. However, there iscause for optimism. Mr Okere’sanalysis of his nation’s economyindicates that there have been

positive, progressive measures byprevious administrations, whichsaved money, which can serve asexamples for the currentadministration as it seeks to achievestability and growth. He observed,“Nigeria was able to balance herbudget, pay off her debts and saveover US$62bn in foreign reservesduring the Obasanjo presidency

from 1999 to 2007, even though theprice of crude was mostly underUS$40 per barrel, except for the twoyears between 2005 and 2007 whenit hovered between US$50 andUS$75 per barrel.”At similar low oil prices, Nigeria

today is struggling to balance thebudget, and has resorted toborrowing to finance the deficit.This presents the unpalatableprospect of sovereign debt and thepotentially debilitating impact ofdebt servicing. However, Mr Okeremainatains that Nigeria can save asmuch as US$36.5bn in the comingyear if oil prices recover towards theend of 2016 and reach US$80 perbarrel in 2017.

Industrial opportunitiesIn his viewpoint, the economic painof the current crisis can afford hisnation the leverage it needs todiversify the Nigerian economy away

from an overdependence on oil, intogreater investment in commoditiesand a greater degree of agriculturalself-sufficiency and food security. Hebelieves, also, that there remainsignificant revenue-generatingopportunities in transportation andtechnological industries, and inconstruction. Such sectors are ripefor collaborative ventures, and thereare many options on the table forlinkage between enterprises.Mr Okere said, “If we strive to

produce what we eat, we will notonly be saving a whopping US$6bnfrom our import bill, but alsoprovide the opportunity for inclusivegrowth, with the spill over effectsdown the value chain, from logisticsand transportation to lightmanufacturing. But we need tomake the right investments ininfrastructure such as roads and railtransport linking farms with theirfood processors and markets.”CWG’s founder echoed a recent

presentation by Dr Doyin Salami, alecturer at Lagos Business School,who reported that the ICT sectorgrew Nigeria’s GDP by 8.7 per centin 2015, “generating spill overs, withuptakes in financial transactionstechnology and payment systems, e-commerce facilitation and aproliferation of transport services”.Mr Okere stresses that a

significant shift in thinking aroundbusiness is overdue, and that what isrequired is for the Nigeriangovernment and its entrepreneursto refocus, to redefine its terms forsuccess. He said, “There is a reasonwhy the Chinese use the same wordfor challenge and opportunity;behind every challenge is anopportunity. We must seize thisgolden opportunity with both handsand make the structural changesthat will lead us to true prosperityas a nation.” �

TAL general manager Chaitan Manga gives his perspective on how companies canoutperform market indicators

Amyriad of South Africancompanies are being placedunder increasing financial

constraints as a result of the poorperformance and volatility of therand. Manufacturers importing rawmaterials from abroad areparticularly hard-hit by a double-edged sword - rising productioncosts and a customer base withdiminishing purchasing power. Aspecialist manufacturer of tile andconstruction adhesives with a trackrecord of more than 40 years, TAL isno exception to this trend. Thecompany’s general manager,Chaitan Manga, recently offered hisinsights into the innovative practicesand product development require tobuck local market trends andachieve growth.Despite ongoing economic

challenges, Manga has managed toincrease sales volumes and staffnumbers at TAL during 2015. Heattributes this success to a proactiveapproach, to being prepared adaptto change. By way of example, hespoke about managing pricesthrough adverse currencyfluctuations. He said, “We importfrom US dollar and Euro regions,and the poor exchange rateperformance has meant priceincreases well above inflation.“In order to prevent these

increases being passed on to ourcustomer base, we have streamlinedinternal efficiencies within our ownorganisation, thereby mitigatingexponential costs in the marketplace, while not only preventing joblosses, but in fact creatingemployment opportunities.”As interest rates increased by 50

basis points in the first quarter of2016, and economists predictedfurther rate hikes during the courseof the year, Manga spotted anoticeable trend of consumers

moving away from new projectdevelopments, and instead opting totake the renovation and DIY routesin an attempt to offset rising costs.This worked to his - and TAL’s -competitive advantage.He focused on loyalty through the

delivery of quality products.Stressing that he achieved sales bypromoting long-term value to thecompany’s customers, he said,“In a challenging economic climate,we don’t compromise on quality and integrity to achieve short-termcost savings.”

Innovation is keyManga revealed that he accentuatedTAL’s corporate culture andcommitment to product innovation

to ensure that the companyremained aligned to internationaltiling and flooring trends. Heoversaw investment in asophisticated laboratory thatfeatures a team of dedicatedchemists to test local products andbenchmark them to internationalstandards, and also recruited a newproduct development team toattend industry conferences aroundthe globe, in order to remainabreast of the latest internationaltrends. He said, “There is alwaysroom for improvement and, byattending these conferences in moreindustrialised markets, we are ableto ensure that the South Africanmarket is immediately exposed tonew innovations.”TAL is ISO 9001:2008 quality

management system certified andits products are designed,manufactured and tested accordingto its high-quality standards. Thecompany places a strong emphasison environmental responsibility,and most of its products conform tothe requirements stipulated by theGreen Building Council of SouthAfrica in lowering emissions ofharmful volatile organic compounds.

Selling against heritageCritically, Manga was able to play onTAL’s South African legacy. Overmore than 50 years, the companyhas grown from modest beginningsin the 1960s to becoming a majorplayer in the tile adhesive market.

In particular, TAL is noted forsuccessfully converting the local tilemarket from mortar (sand andcement) fixing to tile adhesive fixingin the 1970s. TAL also pioneeredrapid-set technology in tileadhesives and developed self-levelling screeds to meet theevolving needs of the South Africancontracts market.This strong foundation in South

Africa serves today as a platform forthe company to achieve measurablegrowth across Sub-Saharan Africa.Manga pointed out that this marketgenerally relies on mortar fixing. Hesaid, “Although initially cheaper,this process is more time-consumingand requires more material. Ouraim is to educate this market on thebenefits of adhesive fixing. We havededicated teams that regularly visitand train contractors throughoutthe region to ensure success atgrassroots level.”Manga has also seen TAL achieve

steady growth with its constructionproduct division, which specialisesin underlayments and concretedecorative overlayments, industrialresin flooring and waterproofing. Hereported, “TAL continues to developits reputation for being a one-stop-shop for all tiling and flooringsolutions, by offering acomprehensive range of high-qualityproducts for all of these needs.”Through the remainder of 2016,Manga expects to continue to dealwith a challenging environment, buthe also expects continuingcommercial success throughconsistently-high product quality.He said, “To date, we have displayedour resilience and adaptability byachieving growth in difficultconditions”, adding that he remains“optimistic of maintainingcontinued growth, not only in SouthAfrica, but across the continent”. �

Improving the passenger experience through thedeployment of IATA’s Fast Travel programme, asuite of projects designed to give passengersmore control over their journey through a rangeof self-service options.

"Africa is set to be one of the fastest-growingaviation regions with five per cent annualgrowth forecast over the next 20 years. Achievingthis potential will not happen by chance; strongpartnerships are key. This MoU will help ensurethat global standards and best practices form thebackbone of Africa’s growth as well as positionthe continent’s 54 nations to promote economicand social development by unleashing the fullpower of aviation.

How and why public and private sector corruption inhibits sustainable economic development, and what can bedone to deal with it


An endemic culture ofcorruption and poorgovernance serves to

undermine the socio-economic andpolitical fabrics of a country, whilstincreasing income/wealth inequalitywith devastating moral outrage. Intoday’s environment where growthand employment prospects of manyAfrican countries (mainlycommodity exporters) remainsubdued, corruption forms a severebarrier to sustainable progress at alllevels of development.

While difficult to measureaccurately, global fiscal lossescaused by high-profile corruptioncases in both developed anddeveloping economies aretentatively estimated by theInternational Monetary Fund (IMF)in a recent paper, ‘Corruption: Costsand Mitigating Strategies’ at aboutUS$1.5-2.0 trillion, representing twoper cent of world’s gross domesticproduct (GDP). Four key sectorsaccount for two-thirds of reportedforeign bribery cases: extractives,construction, transportation and

storage, and information andcommunication technologies.

What constitutes the termcorruption or graft (i.e. informalpayments)? The World Bankdefinition calls it "the abuse ofpublic office for private gain". TheDanish International DevelopmentAgency (DANIDA) defines it as the"misuse of entrusted power forprivate gain". Corruption “is amultifaceted and highly complexphenomenon, involving cross-borderillicit money flows, internationalbribery, misuse of public office, taxevasion, and accounting fraud”,according to the Organisation forEconomic Cooperation andDevelopment (OECD). The side-effects of systemic corruption or giftsto “get things done” at governmentdepartments are lost opportunitycosts to the broader economy.

Businesses forego innovation andcompetitiveness for bribery, whilesenior state officials divert funds fortheir private benefits that could beused to promote the well-being ofcommunities. Corruption also

increases exposure to global threatsarising from smuggling and illicittrade by organised crime andterrorist groups. The ‘Arab Spring’ isa reminder of how decades ofmisrule and gross unevendistribution of wealth in favour ofelites and special interests can leadto violence, civil strife anddisintegration, notably in Syria,Yemen and Libya. Institutionalisedcorruption becomes embodied,hence affects virtually all statefunctions and distrust ofgovernment by both the citizens andforeign nationals.

Mountainous losses Estimates suggest about 15-30 percent of all official developmentassistance (ODA) is stolen annuallythrough high-level corruption fromnational budgets in developingcountries, whilst customs-relatedbribery cost World CustomsOrganisation members US$2bnrevenue each year. Four-fifths offoreign bribes go to officials in state-owned enterprises, 11 per cent toHeads of State and Minsters (OECDfindings). Mega infrastructureprojects are vulnerable to politicalcapture and mismanagement.

Research shows, for example that inthe power sector, investors’ decisionto enter a market is significantlyinfluenced by the perceived risk ofcorruption.

Corruption increases the cost ofdoing business as bribes and lengthynegotiations to bargain them addextra costs to a commercialtransaction. The OECD ForeignBribery Report (2014) showed that,on average, bribes are equal to over10 per cent of the value of atransaction and more than one-thirdof profits. Research also indicatesthat the probability of new foreigndirect investment (FDI) is 15percentage points lower in countrieswith rampant corruption than inrelatively free of corrupt countries.

According to the OECD, in overhalf of reported cases resulting in aconviction, bribes were paid inorder to obtain public procurement(see chart). Bid rigging, whichinvolves groups of powerful firmsconspiring to raise prices or lowerthe quality of the goods or servicesoffered in public tenders, is also amajor issue in public procurement.This illegal anti-competitive practicecosts state coffers and taxpayersbillions of dollars every year.

Inflated costs in public procurementprocess affect both the quantity andquality of public spending. In fact,10-30 per cent of the investment ina publicly funded constructionproject is usually lost due tounofficial payments.

Restricting competition & productivityCorruption endangers private-sectorproductivity by creating incentivesto allocate resources tounproductive activities and bydeterring innovation and theemergence of dynamic companies.Thus, it acts as a barrier to entry fornew entrants; resources areallocated to rent-seeking, ratherthan productive activities.Corruption also hinders publicsector productivity by biasingdecisions in public spending, byweakening the skills andprofessionalism of the civil service.When companies prefer investing inunproductive ‘rent-seeking’ activities

such as lobbying, fewer resourcesare available for productiveinvestment into physical orknowledge-based capital. Moreover,when ‘rule of law’ is weak or worstnon-existence, businesses arediscouraged from developinginnovations or assets that could bestolen, extorted or expropriated bythe state.

Poor governance hinders publicsector efficiency and effectiveness.Capital expenditures are notallocated to programmesrepresenting the best value formoney or where needs are greatest,but to those few sectors thatgenerate personal enrichment ofhighly corrupt officials. Distortionsin political decisions result in heavyred tape, trade barriers andsubsidies, which are not in public’sinterest. The quality of civil servicecan be depleted by cronies,especially where state officials areappointed on the basis of nepotismor favouritism instead of merit and

ability, their decisions may reflectthe interests of powerful lobbies.Thus corruption prevents attractingthe best talent in public services.

It also creates continuousuncertainties as there are alwayscompeting firms willing to payhigher bribes to tilt official decisionsin their favour. By loweringprofitability and raising instability,corruption tends to discourage theentry of foreign companies – thusdenying the benefits of competition,technological transfers and foreignmanagerial expertise. Similarly,corruption lowers the attractivenessof entrepreneurship, diverting talentto less productive activities. Theend-results are higher prices andlower quality products, as well aspoor consumer services. The OECDreport on the consequences ofcorruption at the sector levelrevealed that bribery is associatedwith higher prices for medicines andhealth services, among others.

By weakening the culture of

compliance, corruption increasestax evasion.

In sum, all the best frameworkswill come to nothing without a realleadership. The African leaders mustset a personal example and ensurethat decisive actions are taken toenhance the rule of law and goodgovernance in their respectivecountries. “While the directeconomic costs of corruption arewell known, the indirect costs maybe even more substantial anddebilitating, leading to low growthand greater income inequality.Corruption also has a broadercorrosive impact on society. Itundermines trust in governmentand erodes the ethical standards ofprivate citizens,” said IMF ManagingDirector Christine Lagarde. TheAfrican region needs bettergovernance to prosper and achievethe Social Development Goals (SDGs)in the coming decades. �

The search for strategic partnerships across several commercial sectors, as the AfricanDevelopment Bank seeks to industrialise the continent's emerging markets

This year, Zambia has been a‘nucleus’ for high-levelinternational meetings, which

have raised the country’s profile ininternational terms. These includethe World Farmers’ Organisation(WFO) general assembly inLivingstone, the Copperbelt MiningTrade Expo and Conference (CBM-TEC) in Kitwe, and Agritech inChisamba. The capital Lusaka hasplayed host to the InternationalParliamentary Union (IPU), theZambia International InvestmentForum (ZIIF), the ZambiaInternational Energy Conference,and the African Development Bank(AfDB) Annual Meetings.

The most recent of these, the 51stAfDB Annual Meetings, broughttogether 4,000 delegates to considerroutes to sustained prosperity. Theobjective of the AfDB Group is tospur sustainable economicdevelopment and social progress inits regional member countries(RMCs), thus contributing to povertyreduction. The Bank works in thefollowing sectors: agriculture andagro-industries; climate change;economic and financial governance;education; energy and power;environment, gender, health,human capital development,information and communicationtechnology, infrastructure, privatesector, transport, and water supplyand sanitation.

High-level participationZambia’s President Lungu openedthe forum. It was also attended byPresidents Idriss Deby of Chad, PaulKagame of Rwanda, Uhuru Kenyattaof Kenya, and by the Nigerian vicepresident, Yemi Osinbajo. Alsopresent were former President ofNigeria Olusegun Obasanjo, formerUN Secretary-General Kofi Annan,and former Presidents John Kufuor

of Ghana, Festus Mogae ofBotswana), Horst Kohler ofGermany), and Mary Robinson ofIreland. Finally, there were alsothree former AfDB presidents -Babacar Ndiaye of Senegal, OmarKabbaj of Morocco, and KwameDonkor Fordwor of Ghana.

“The participation andengagement of many former andcurrent Heads of State, ministers,central bank governors, businessand civic leaders as well as leadingexperts on these issues across Africaand the world, have provided anopportunity for the bank to garnervery strong support for itstransformative development

agenda,’’ said Dr Charles Lufumpa,the AfDB’s acting chief economistand vice president.

The meetings represent thedefinitive forum for representativesof Government, business, civilsociety and media - from Africa andbeyond - to debate the social andeconomic development of thecontinent. The theme of this year’smeetings was ‘Energy and ClimateChange’, with discussions revolvingaround the High 5 transformativedevelopment agenda for Africa:Light up and Power Africa; FeedAfrica; Industrialise Africa; IntegrateAfrica; and Improve the Quality ofLife for Africans.

Progressive programmes

Several key initiatives launched atthe Meetings, including The NewDeal on Energy and Jobs for Africa’sYouth. The African Leaders forNutrition programme aims to endmalnutrition and is chaired byformer president of Ghana, JohnKufuor, leading a partnership withthe African Union's New Partnershipfor Africa's Development (NEPAD),the Bill and Melinda GatesFoundation, the Kofi AnnanFoundation, the Big WinPhilanthropy, Dangote Foundationand the United Nations' World FoodProgramme. The AfDB also intendsto launch a US$3bn fund toempower women in theircommunities and in business.

The Meetings stressed thatpartnerships are the way to go if theagenda to promote social andeconomic development of thecontinent is to be achieved. Hence,the AfDB unveiled theTransformative Partnership onEnergy for Africa, a bold co-development model whichencompasses several partnersincluding the AU, the Africa ProgressPanel, NEPAD, Power Africa and theWorld Bank. �

Issues affecting investment and management in the delivery of sustainable mobility servicesin urban environments and for commercial operators


With space increasingly at apremium in today’s cities,high quality public

transport combined with a broadermix of mobility services is theanswer to cutting car dependency,according to the InternationalAssociation of Public Transport(UITP).

The UITP is a passionatechampion of sustainable urbanmobility and is the only worldwidenetwork to bring together all publictransport stakeholders and allsustainable transport modes. It has1,400 member companies, withcollective access to 16,000 contactsfrom 96 countries. Its membersinclude public transport authoritiesand operators, policy decision-makers, research institutes and thepublic transport supply and service

industry. In a UITP recentpublication entitled ‘Publictransport at the heart of theintegrated mobility solution’, theassociation affirms that the key tocutting urban car dependency is anintegrated combination ofsustainable mobility services. Citieswith strong public transport,complemented with services such ascar- and bike-sharing, shared taxiservices and ride-sharing, offercitizens convenient and flexibletravel options.

Resource use in city spacesUrban space is one of the mostprecious resources in a city: privatecars are parked 95 per cent of theirlifetime and during the five percent of the time they are driven,are much less space-efficient

compared to public transport,walking and cycling. With theincreasing urbanisation of theplanet, mobility demand willcontinue to rise: public transport,particularly on major corridors andin peak hours, will remain the onlyviable solution for cities.

Though new mobility servicessuch as ride selling apps (Uber, Lyft),free-floating car-sharing (car2go) orride-sharing apps (Blablacar) play avaluable role in helping to reducecar ownership, alone they do nothave the capacity or capability tomeet every journey need or solvecongestion issues.

These services thus depend onefficient public transport in order tofunction well. In Paris, 65 per centof Uber trips start or end within200m of a metro station. In Berlin,

free-floating car-sharing is well-developed but still represents just0.1 per cent of total trips. Uber isbuilding market-share in Africa - butits impact is currently limited to 15locations: Abuja, Accra and Lagos inWest Africa; Alexandria, Cairo andCasablanca in North Africa; CapeTown, Durban, Johannesburg,Pretoria and Port Elizabeth inSouthern Africa; and Dar Es Salaam,Kampala, Mombasa and Nairobi inEast Africa. Away from the car, orfrom car-sharing, South African appusers can turn to GoMetro toconnect with PRASA Metrorail,Gautrain, MyCiti, Rea Vaya andGolden Arrow.

This is precisely the point: carusage decreases because car-sharing users walk, cycle and usepublic transport for the majority of

their trips and use a car onlywhen necessary.

“Public transport accounts for1.2bn trips across the globe eachday,” said Alain Flausch, UITPSecretary General. “It is this vitalbackbone role that it plays - incombination with new mobilityservices - that will ultimately offermore flexible and convenient traveloptions that will help our cities tobecome less car dependent.”

Intermodal interventionsAligned to UITP's research intomobility service is evidenceindicating the strength of demandfor significant development ofintermodal networks across thecontinent, ideally framed withinsmart city or freight connectorinitiatives. The architects of SouthAfrican transport policy andtransport plans, for example, whichhas focused almost entirely onpassenger transport, have beenpressed in recent years toacknowledge a need to addressdeficiencies in the country'slogistics system. Intermodalpassenger transport in South Africahas been well-integrated inconurbations such as Johannesburgand Cape Town - served by the likesof Shosholoza Meyl, Baz Bus, thePassenger Rail Agency of SouthAfrica (PRASA) and the GautrainManagement Agency - but work isneeded to further integrate withcommercial interests. Long-distancecorridors such as the connectionsbetween the ports of Dar Es Salaamand Mombasa, represent a varietyof operators and transportscenarios - and governancestructures are in place to manage

operational and infrastructuralissues, harmonise interests andattract investment to serve as broada range of stakeholders as possible.In both Southern and EasternAfrica, governance is in need offurther reach: as researchundertaken by South Africa's North-West University shows, for example,regional road freight industry isover-traded and transport rates arehighly competitive and aggressive,and so operators are compelled tooverload in an endeavour tooperate profitably.

Research published in 2015 byUniversité de Lyon in France andUniversity of Kara in Togo revealsthat intermodality andmultimodality in Lomé isdeveloping along ad hoc lines, butrequires specific pro-poortransport policies that includemodal and functional transportintegration. Intermodality - theuse of at least two transportmodes in the course of a singletrip - allows individuals to travelthroughout a city, but it requirestrade-offs between cost, durationand potentially physically-exhausting conditions.Multimodality, or the use of adifferent mode or combination ofmodes for outbound and returntrips, is observed among thecontinent's working population,usually in order to reduce the costof transport. The consequences ofindividuals’ 'de facto' intermodaland multimodal practices in termsof mobility and money and timebudgets highlight the strategicimportance of formal transportintegration for the continent's city-dwellers and its businesses. �

Public transport...will ultimately offermore flexible and convenient traveloptions that will help our cities to becomeless car dependent.”ALAIN FLAUSCH, SECRETARY GENERAL, UITP

Even in the earliest history ofthe logistics industry, tradersoperating across diverse

geographies, cultures, andeconomies knew they had to worktogether to expand reach. Today,that spirit of collaboration hasn’tchanged, but the technology thatties the supply chain together has.

When a company wants toincrease its profit, two strategieshave remained generally in usethroughout time: squeeze thecustomer to pay more, or squeezethe supplier to reduce their prices.But for both, the result is the same:merely taking money out of theirpockets and putting it into yours.Unfortunately, neither of these addany real value to anyone. In fact,value is lost when customers areforced to reduce the amount theycan buy and suppliers mustdowngrade the quality of theirproduct to cover costs. This isn’tcollaboration, it’s just bad business.

True collaboration unlocks truevalue for everyone – your supplier,your customer, and your ownbusiness. Running a single platformsolution that’s integrated with allyour partners’ systems empowersyou to manage logistics from acentral database across multipleusers, functions, offices, countries,and languages.

For the last 10 years, I’vepersonally been involved in helpingcompanies collaborate usingtechnology in one of the mostdiverse regions of the globe. Thereare major institutional voids inAfrica, ranging from electricitysupply to internet connectivity, andcollaboration is the key toovercoming such gaps. I have seenthis work in many instances, andinnovative uses of technologyoften play a major role in bridgingthese gaps.

The South AfricanexperienceWith emerging consumer marketsflooding goods into the continent,and unprecedented volumes ofresources flowing out, Sub-SaharanAfrica is the place to be. Accordingto the World Bank, the region is on aGDP growth outlook that isapproaching levels that aresurpassing expectations in relativelymore developed economies.

Logistics operations in SouthAfrica are in a great position to takeadvantage of the massive growthopportunities this represents.There’s a chance for everyone tobenefit by sharing skills, goods, andknowledge. And today’s technologymakes this collaboration faster,more efficient, and more immune tothe stresses of international logisticsby sharing it all within a single-database system. Elements of SouthAfrica’s economy and society can bedefined in numerous ways. On oneside, we South Africans haveembraced the technologies andpractices of the West, while on theother we’re also aware of thechallenges, institutional gaps, andrelevant cultures that surround us.

Armed with regional knowledge andcutting edge software, logisticsoperators and their clients can moreeasily overcome the undeniablechallenges as they take part inAfrica’s economic renaissance.

Unlocking value, increasingproductivityLet’s say an order is placed in SouthAfrica. The raw materials areprocured in Brazil and sent forproduction in China. All of it’stransported by an internationalshipping line or two, withinternational and local Africanagents involved. All deadlines aremet. All documents, messages, andmilestones are delivered on timewith no delays and no issues.

How does this whole supply chainexample proceeded so smoothly. It’ssimple: we collaborate, and weshare information at every step.

Until now, all the data requiredto get the freight where it needed togo had to be re-keyed at every pointand communicated manually viaphone calls, faxes, or emails. Buttechnology allows us to unlock andretain value in the transaction. Thekey to this entire collaborative

process is found in having tocapture the information only once.

With automation and integrationwithin each supply chain member’sown operations and between thedifferent organisations, the resultcan be reduced errors, saved time,and execution with minimal effort.Imagine a manufacturer’s ERPsystem to manage stock noticesthat vital materials are runninglow. It can automatically send thesupplier a message, which in turntriggers actions for the exportingand importing agents. This notonly increases accuracy, it alsoreduces transactional costsbetween organisations.

By automating and integrating wecan work to create a high-velocity,low-touch supply chain where everymember collaborates moreeffectively and efficiently. Whenproviders work together, theirshared technology frees up staffacross all borders to be moreaccurate, more productive, andultimately more successful. �

Ongoing problems with West African waste management systems, and the practices and technologies that canresolve current issues

Waste is the eternal burdenof civilisation. The earliestknown urban garbage

dumps are found in Crete, madeover 5,000 years ago. Not long afterthat experiments with recyclingbegan: Chinese societies reusedbronze and the Aztecs routinelyrescued usable materials from theirgarbage piles. Even regulation is notnew: Athenian Greeks decided over2,500 years ago that a dump shouldbe located more than a kilometeraway from settlements.

Targeting disposalGrowing urban populations areplacing heavy demands on modernwaste disposal. There simply is nospace to breathe, even in smallermunicipal areas. This is made moreacute by growing demand forresponsible waste handling, drivenby new environmental regulations.Even though such regulations aresound and broadly supported bynations, across Africa,implementation is very hard when itneeds to be pinned on a runningtarget: explosive population growth.

According to research conductedby United Nations Economics forAfrica in 2012, effective and modernwaste management practices arestill lacking on the continent. Anunrelated 2014 study published inthe National Center forBiotechnology Information's journalfound that nearly no households inGhana's capital Accra recycled anywaste and more than a third of thecity's garbage was being disposed ofthrough illegal and unregulateddumping. Services are also lacking,as over 60 per cent of people payingfor proper waste removal by privatecontractors were not happy withwhat they got.

Yet users of those services are byno means ignorant of the need for

urban sanitation, firmly agreeing onthe connection between disease andgarbage. Instead the majorparadigm shift needs to come frompolicies and systems at national andregional level. It's a picture that canbe drawn for many of thecontinent's nations. Improvementsin infrastructure are urgentlyneeded to combat the high cost ofhealth services and thereby alleviatepoverty and reduce the pressures ofrural-urban migration.

If only the solution was as easy tomake as that statement. Wastecollection has to operate likeclockwork or risk cascading into aseries of massive disruptions. Forexample, the breakdown of a singletruck can delay collection by a day,not only leading to upset citizens buta ripple effect across the entiremanagement ecosystem. At the sametime waste management outfits areunder pressure to cut operationalcosts, so there may simply not beanother truck to deploy.

Yet even if there was an availablevehicle, how can operations identifythe problem in an actionable timeframe, all while managing thedisruption over other areas? In somescenarios, such as a worker strike,the delays can become catastrophic,requiring weeks - even months - torecover all the overflow waste andalign schedules back to normal.

Scenarios and solutionsThere are three core problems thataffect waste management systems:no end-to-end control, processesand information trapped in silos,and an inability to respond and planin real-time to scenarios. In recentyears a lot of noise has been madearound the concept of Smart Cities.Waste management groups cannotbe blamed for rolling their eyeswhen hearing about yet another

futuristic 'solution' to a complicatedset of challenges. Yet in some caseshype and reality do meet up. Byintegrating tried-and-tested wastemanagement solutions with anEnterprise Resource Planning (ERP)culture, the ambition of a real-time,end-to-end approach to reducinggarbage is very attainable.

Enterprise application softwarespecialist SAP has partnered withwaste management expert PROLOGAto address many of the challengesaround this industry: from routeplanning, real-time equipmentoversight, staff management andcitizen services to meetingregulatory benchmarks and forward-planning through data collectionand predictive analytics. The SAPWaste and Recycling applicationmelds seamlessly with an SAP ERP(enterprise resource planning)system, implemented byexperienced partners such as YashTechnologies. Through this solutionmanagers can control equipmentage, track disposal bins, align pickupschedules to refuse levels in bins,plan routes with on-the-groundfeedback, comply withenvironmental laws, facilitaterecycling economies and more.

SAP waste management

technology solutions have manypossibilities that are developingfrom day to day. Amongst others,they are currently also playing a rolein helping manage issues related toinfectious disease outbreaks inAfrica, such as cholera and Ebola. Inanother example, the central Africannation of Gabon is growing itsappeal as a tourism destination bytackling the waste problems of itscapital Libreville. The city'sinhabitants also quickly cottonedonto the benefits of a cleanerenvironment, resulting in lesslittering and proactivebeautification of the area.

These are not concepts oftomorrow. Smart technologies areslowly expanding into modernurban environments, fueled by thegrowth of high speed fibre andmobile networks. Seoul in SouthKorea is one of several cities trialingsmart garbage bins: these will sendnotifications when they need to beemptied, thus saving unnecessarytrips and enabling a proactiveapproach to waste disposal. Theproject projects a 20 per centreduction in waste removal trips.

Alternatively, waste can simply beshoved into walls, as the Romansdid by breaking down pots thatimported olive oil from Spain andinsulating their homes with theshards. Whatever was left formedmassive garbage piles that today arethe happy playgrounds ofarcheologists. Sadly (or perhapsfortunately) the nature and scale oftoday's waste makes that ideaimpractical. Besides, who wantstoday's legacy for the future to begiant rubbish dumps that futurePhds trawl in hope of a good grade? �

According to a report from Timetric’s Construction Intelligence Center (CIC), thetotal value of the power generation construction projects pipeline in the Middle East andAfrica stands at US$876.6 billion, with South Africa amongst the largest shares, withproject pipelines valued at US$167.4bn. Based on the projects tracked by the CIC, thenuclear sector has the highest global value pipeline, at US$367.5bn. Gas powergeneration is in second place with a value of US$149.4bn. Renewables are beginning tomake inroads in terms of being alternatives to fossil fuel investment, with solar powerprojects having a combined value of US$126.5bn, ahead of hydroelectric withUS$46.1bn and wind with US$20.1bn. Meanwhile, Nigeria surpasses other countries insolar power, with projects valued at US$39.5bn.

SA leads power construction

Renewable NRG Systems (RNRG), a designer andmanufacturer of decision support tools for theglobal renewable energy industry, has suppliedcomplete resource assessment packages to Frenchdeveloper Valorem to support renewable energyproject development activities in Africa. Valorem iscurrently building a pipeline of five wind and solarfarms at various development stages, totallingaround 100MW spread across various North Africancountries. The French company is also positioned asa service provider in Sub-Saharan Africa.“RNRG offers genuinely complete measurement

systems, which are very valuable to us. The qualityof these packages, combined with the outstanding support service provided, are the key factors thatcontributed to our decision to collaborate with RNRG,” said Valorem senior engineer, Romain Barbot.The complete systems selected include towers, data loggers complete with communications and

autonomous power modules, Class 1 sensors, booms, and cables, as well as winches and ginpoles.“RNRG is our one-stop shop, ” explained Barbot. “They greatly simplify our logistics. For instance,

centralised shipping reduces customs issues. The packaging is compact, and anchoring RNRG’s tilt-upTallTowers is quite easy. We do not use concrete, which facilitates both on-site installation and localacceptance. In addition, it is sometimes possible to change the distance between mast and anchors,and this flexibility has been crucial on a couple of occasions. RNRG’s after-sales services are veryeffective and provide the help necessary for instrument configuration, custom clearance papers, andany other issues.

“Working with such an experienced project developer is a pleasure for us. It ensures that ourequipment will deliver its full potential, and that is a great reward in itself. We look forward tocontinuing our successful collaboration for a long time,” concluded Dave Hurwitt, VP of globalmarketing and product management at RNRG.

Actom subsidiary company Marthinusen &Coutts recently repaired two large millmotors for Rössing Uranium in Namibia. Itsfield service team was requested by Rössingto inspect two brush mill motors on site. Theteam found that the starting cage winding onone of the motors had moved and rubbedagainst the stator winding, while aninsulation test conducted on the secondmotor indicated that the stator winding wasdown to earth. This necessitated havingboth motors repaired at Marthinusen &Coutts’ facility in Cleveland, Johannesburg,South Africa.In view of the fact that no spare motor

would be available to the mine in the eventof a further breakdown while the two sparemotors were being attended to byMarthinusen & Coutts in Johannesburg, thefirst of the two 1,586kW, 3,300 V, 187.5 rpm,brush motors to be repaired was treated withurgency, to ensure that it was returned tothe mine as quickly as possible.

“The repairs were completed within threemonths,” Craig Megannon, Marthinusen &Coutts’ general manager, said. The repairs carried out on the two motors

consisted of rewinding the statorsincorporating use of a resin-rich windingsystem, overhaul of the rotors and completereplacement of the rotors’ electronic diodeand synchronising hub.

Eastman Chemical Companydeclared PSM’s FlameSheetcombustion system

conversion project a “remarkabletechnical success” during thecompany’s presentation at therecent 7F Users Group Conference,which was attended by over 220industry professionals utilising 7Fgas turbines (GTs).Chuck Goodson, Eastman

Chemical Company’s utilitiesmaintenance area manager,explained to the conference why thecompany selected FlameSheet,implemented in 2015 on the two 7FGT’s at its cogeneration facility, andthe collaboration between PSM andEastman Chemical Company thatenabled all project operationalflexibility goals to be fully realised.“Prior to installing FlameSheet,

the plant could operate both GTs to

maximise output, but was exposedto low demand and low marketpricing. When operating just one GT,the plant could meet the hostelectrical demands, but was unableto ramp to capture high marketpricing,” said Jim Stark, EastmanChemical Company’s area managerof utilities-cogeneration operations.“FlameSheet’s extended turndowncapability allows us to increasemarket participation with the fullcapability of the plant availablewhile minimising exposure tounfavourable market conditions.” Power Systems Mfg., LLC (PSM) is

a subsidiary of the of the AnsaldoEnergia Group, which providesaftermarket services for multi-platform OEM gas turbine powerplants worldwide. Dr Alex Hoffs, PSMpresident, said, “Power generationmarket dynamics require GT power

plants to operate in increasinglyflexible operating windows.FlameSheet was developed with thisin mind. With its extendedturndown capability, as well aslower maintenance costs, reducedemissions, and significantlyincreased fuel flexibility,implementing FlameSheettechnology, like Eastman ChemicalCompany did, can enable customersto implement strategic operationalchanges to increase profitability intheir respective markets.”FlameSheet is an innovative

retrofittable combustion system,with operational flexibilitycharacteristics aligned to dynamic & challenging power generationmarket needs. The FlameSheetcombustor employs a 2-in-1 can-annular combustor concept.Leveraging patented fuel / air

mixing concepts, FlameSheetTMprovides up to a 30 per cent GToperating load range increase whilemaintaining single digit NOx & COemissions. Designed to operate upto 32,000 factored hours betweeninspections, FlameSheet is ideallysuited for shale gas, LiquefiedNatural Gas (LNG), or alternate fueloperation such as ethane, propane,and hydrogen to name a few - allwith up to a 3x increase in ModifiedWobbe Index (MWI) operationalrange compared to the current 7Fcombustion technology. �

Regular and efficient service and repair regimes are the answer, if companies andfacilities are to function efficiently and profitably


Powering a hospital has itsclear connotations forkeeping the sick alive,

whether energy is needed forincubators on a maternity ward, orto run life-saving equipment insurgical or emergency units. If thelights go out and machines andtechnology stop functioning, liveswill be at risk. Similarly, in themining sector, hundreds of mendeep underground will rely ongenerators above to keep fresh airpumping, machinery andunderground transportation systemsoperating. Systems on which theirlives depend all, in turn, depend onthe generating plant and equipmentat the surface to perform faultlessly.Owning generator plant from a

supplier such as Caterpillar,Cummins, FG Wilson or LangfordPower is, however, a high capitalcost move. For many, the option of afully-managed hire service makesmore sense. Not only does iteliminate the need for any highinitial outlay but it also ensures thatthe supplier, whether themanufacturer or its accrediteddistributor, often remains responsiblefor servicing and maintenance.One major supplier of generators

is Aggreko, with more than 6,000staff at over 200 locationssupporting both sales and hireservices across diverse industries.Systems they and other leadingproviders offer range from single20kVA generators to multi-megawattpower plants. In addition toproviding independent powerresources, as might be used inremote, off-grid scenarios, systemscan also provide a source ofbaseload power feeding into thenational grid.John Deere and Mitsubishi are

currently looking to establish suchan arrangement through New Way

Power in SA. For Aggreko, systemsare delivered to distributionchannels throughout Africa, withlocal resources offering service andsupport. It’s essential that technicalspecialists and maintenance staffare available on a 24/7 basis, in casean emergency outage requiresimmediate deployment. Majorsuppliers also operate performancemonitoring and regular serviceregimes that, by and large, reducethe chances of the emergency call-out scenario from occurring. One challenge for the end user is

the sophistication of many largerdiesel or gas power generation andco-generation systems, making itabsolutely necessary to rely on theskills of the supplier for servicingand maintenance. It’s only whenusers are based out in truly remotelocations, where third-partymaintenance staff can only reachthe location after considerabletravel time, that it makes sense toeither train end-user personnel tokeep the generators/plant working,or the supplier, such as Aggreko, canlocate its own staff on-site to

provide a fully-managed round-the-clock service.Such is the case at the Bisha gold

mine in an isolated region of Eritreasome 300km from the Red Sea andunable to access the Eritreannational grid due to its location.Operated by Bisha Mining ShareCompany (BMSC), the fullyoperational mine requires at least20MW of power. This requirementwas initially established through afeasibility study conducted byAggreko before the mine was evengiven the go-ahead to open; Aggreko was able to come up with

a solution package that is now themine’s only source of operationalpower. Until a permanent powersupply becomes established at thelocation, Aggreko servicing andmaintenance technicians aremanning the site 24 hours a day toensure a stable and reliable powersupply is delivered and the generatorsare fully serviced and maintained.

Bottom line in maintenanceSo, whether an end user is dealingwith generators or power plant from

the likes of Aggreko, Caterpillar orCummins or FG Wilson, allmanufacturers know how theirequipment will operate and canreliably predict when variouscomponents will need changing, willfail, or require adjustment. This iswhere the adherence to a reliablemaintenance schedule is key andwill be available frommanufacturers for use by localgenerator dealers, or other electricalcontractors/engineers, or eventrained end-user personnel. Keepingto the letter of such aservice/maintenance schedule willensure optimum service life for thegenerator and proper operationwhen needed. When it comes thebigger systems from the largermanufacturers, establishedmaintenance plans will be firmly inplace before an end user hires orbuys a system but typically thesemanufacturers will not only takeresponsibility for servicing their owngenerators, but also many systemsfrom other major brand names. �

How Zest WEG Group has been helping African governments execute key initiatives to addressbacklogs in development of energy infrastructure

African policy makers haveplaced energy infrastructurefirmly on their agendas, and

an array of strategic projects arealready being executed to attend tothe growing electrical infrastructurebacklog in sub-Saharan Africa.However, it is going to take time toaddress this challenge.South Africa is a sound example

of the extremely long lead timesassociated with the planning,execution and completion of theselarge base-load and peaking powergeneration plants, as well asattending to the shortfalls in existingtransmission and distributioninfrastructures. While the countrymay be experiencing a period ofstability in terms of electricalsupply, the reality is that suppressedeconomic growth has relieved thestate-owned power utility of some ofthe supply constraints that havecaused rolling black outs since 2006.

A dominant partnerSouth Africa remains the mainpower generator on the continent,as well as the dominant participantin the Southern African Power Pool.Countries north of its borders are

experiencing larger constraints interms of generation, transmissionand distribution infrastructures. Forthis reason, alternative sources ofelectricity supply will remain animportant facet for any businessoperating in the region.Of the options available, the

diesel generator remains the mostreliable regular and standby powergeneration solution for businesses insub-Saharan Africa. It is able tooperate around-the-clock, and is notreliant on adequate wind speeds orsolar radiation levels. As DavidClaassen, executive: integrated

solutions at Zest WEG Group, saidrecently, “Other overriding factorsthat influence the choices availablefor alternative power supply are theavailability and cost of the fuels, aswell as the overall cost of everykilowatt generated per hour. Dieselis readily available in Sub-SaharanAfrica and power produced by agenerator is more cost effective thansolar with storage systems andoffshore wind farms.”The advantages offered by this

alternative source of power supplycan be enhanced by offsetting thefixed cost of the diesel with other

available renewable fuel sources.For example, combining dieselgenerators with solar photovoltaic(PV) technologies provides electricityconsumers with an available freefuel source, as well as the ability togenerate electricity cost effectivelyin instances when the sun does notshine. The two technologies caneven operate simultaneously toallow solar to carry some of the loadof the generator, reducing costs.

Power projectsThe demand for these systems hasbeen growing in the SouthernAfrican region. According toClaassen, Zest WEG Group isinvolved in many related projectsfor various industries. Thecompany has been approached toenhance the benefits of hybridsystems by combining them with athird source of electrical energy -namely, utility power when it isavailable. These customersgenerate as much as 60 per cent oftheir energy requirements from PVsolar technologies and the balancefrom the national grid. Utilityelectricity is more cost-effectivethan diesel generators. �

Power station equipment supplier Powerphase describes how its Turbophasesystem can help address Nigeria’s power shortage


Nigeria, , which has apopulation three times largerthan South Africa’s, generates

just a tenth as much electricity.Power from private generators

costs US$0.35 per kilowatt-hour ormore, ten times more thanelectricity from the grid in mostother countries. The World Bankreckons that power shortages trimmore than two percentage pointsfrom annual growth in GDP onaverage in Africa; in Nigeria the losshas been almost four percentagepoints a year. It was reported that Nigeria’s

power generation system hit zeromegawatts six times in May thisyear, the highest level since 2009.According to industry data

acquired by a Citizen correspondent,power supply to households andbusinesses across the countrydropped significantly in May as thenational grid recorded six totalcollapses and one partial collapsewithin the period. Nigeria has 11,600MW of installed

gas turbine generation. What ifNigeria could add incrementalpower to the existing installations,specifically where natural gas supplyis not a challenge?

The ‘Turbophase’ upgradePowerphase, a Company in Florida,USA makes an upgrade that coulddo just that, allowing Nigeria to getmore from the power plants italready has as opposed to investingbillions and many years to buildnew power plants. The upgrade,

known as “Turbophase” is fast,flexible and cost-effective.In late summer 2015, Powerphase

installed a Turbophase upgrade onan operational GE 7FA gas turbine inthe Middle East. The upgrade wasinstalled in four months in order tomeet the customer's summer peakload requirements.In simple or combined cycle

applications the skid-mountedTurbophase system consists of an aircompressor driven by areciprocating engine and a heatrecovery system which captures theengine's exhaust heat and adds it tothe compressor discharge, enablingthe system to match the turbine'scompressor discharge temperature.The Turbophase system "takes

advantage of the fact that all gasturbines lose power as ambienttemperatures or elevations rise,"explained Bob Kraft, Powerphasepresident and chief executive. Thesystem "adds the air that is naturallymissing back into the turbine". Theair is injected into one or more ofthe existing ports, "typically aboutfive per cent air, which results in 10per cent more turbine power"."We are the first commercial air

injection system available onmarket," he said, "and for thenext 18 to 20 years we expect tobe the only one because of ourpatent portfolio."Turbophase installations could

add 1,200MW to the gas turbinecapacity of Nigeria installed in a fewmonths from order. The gridefficiency would increase and

carbon emissions per MWh woulddecrease. Turbophase systems canbe offered as capital purchase orunder long term PPA.

Sizing up the competitionA Turbophase unit can run 24/7."The chiller is running harder at

night to do the storage process andonly gets auxiliary power during theday. The customer generates aboutsix times the revenue stream withour system compared to a chillersystem”, said Kraft.“New aero-derivative gas turbines

are also competitive. These unitssuffer similar output reductions dueto high ambient temperatures.Turbophase mitigates, and in somecases eliminates, the need to installnew peaking gas turbines byproviding an alternative at muchbetter fuel efficiency.”

Project specificationsThe installation in the Middle Eastwas designed to demonstrate theTurbophase system's performance athigh ambient temperatures. Theproject was operational betweenmid-July and early October 2015."Our product works on every gas

turbine on the planet. On B-classmachines a system might make8MW whereas on a J machine it willmake 40MW,” said Kraft. "On moreadvanced frames you will see someof the OEMs offering our equipment.This product works nicely with OEMofferings. It could be viewed as acompetitive product because OEMslike to upgrade their GTs, however

it's such a unique product and wesee OEMs moving towards putting iton their engines, either in new orexisting offerings, on both matureand advanced fleet GTs."

Hitting targetsThe initial 7FA performance test wasconducted on July 28, 2015. TheTurbophase system achieved itsoutput and heat rate targets of 31.5MW and five per cent heat rateimprovement for a full installation.At the customer's request, a secondperformance test was conducted inearly September and confirmed theresults of the first test. In both cases,the upgrade demonstrated that a full installation would produce a five per cent fuel efficiencyimprovement and 31.5MW powerincrease on the 7FA gas turbine.Additionally, the system

demonstrated as high as 99.3 percent availability in ambientconditions up to 55ºC. The fuelefficiency improvement wasdemonstrated at both baseload andpart-load operating conditions."A turbine has to be down for six

weeks or more if you're installing anew hot gas path or putting on aninlet cooling system," Kraft said.“We have one air pipe that hooks tothe GT and outage has been lessthan one day. So when the plant isdown for something else, we tie inand we're done. It’s a really simpleinstallation, which leads to uniqueopportunities in that we can dosomething like the aircraft businessdoes: power by the hour or PPA.” �

Pouring fresh concrete is a time-sensitive operation, and delays can be problematic - but the use of admixturesenables more control over concrete


Contractors in the constructionindustry use additivesprimarily to reduce the cost

of concrete construction, to modifythe properties, to ensure quality andto overcome certain emergenciesduring concrete operations.Chemical companies such asClariant, which specialises insurfactant technology, havedeveloped tailor-made solutions forthe admixture market.

Clariant covers African territoriesfrom facilities in Cairo in Egypt,Johannesburg in South Africa, andCasablanca in Morocco. Thecompany offers air entrainingproducts, for the creation of smallair bubbles in concrete. The bubblesare introduced into the concrete bythe addition of an air entrainingagent to the mix. The air bubbles

are created during mixing of theflowable concrete, and most ofthem survive to be part of thehardened concrete.

The primary purpose of airentrainment is to increase thedurability of the hardened concrete,especially in climates subject tofreeze-thaw. The secondary purposeis to increase workability ofthe concrete.

Wetting agents also perform ahighly functional role. Wettingagents are used to improve thewetting of the fine particles of thedry plaster or mortar. Thus, theyimprove workability, penetrationand binding power of the concreteto surfaces and lead to a higherperformance and time savings.Their finishing as (fine) powderassures rapid and homogeneous

uptake and distribution in water.Defoamers will be applied, too, todestabilise any foam which buildsup during the mixing process andreduces air content.

Contractors will also consider theuse of biocides. Since admixturestypically are provided as water-based solutions, the preservation offormulations is critical, and is donewith antimicrobial products.

Admixtures are used to obtainconcrete with characteristicsincluding high compressive strength,high workability, and highperformance and durabilityparameters to meet the requirementof complexity of modern structures.

Admixtures can restore loads ofconcrete that might otherwise berejected. Admixtures are additionsto a concrete mix that can help

control the set time and otheraspects of fresh concrete. Commonadmixtures include accelerators,retarders, water-reducing agents,super plasticisers, and airentraining agents.

In fact, admixtures can be eitherchemical or mineral based.

Using chemical admixturesExamples of chemical admixturesinclude Water-reducing admixtures(or plasticisers), which are used to:gain strength by decreasing thewater/cement (w/c) ratio, decreasthe cement content so as to reducethe heat of hydration in massconcrete; and ease placing inaccessible locations.

The most commonly used water-reducing admixtures arelignosulphonates and hydrocarbolic

acid salts. Typically, plasticisers willbe based on lignosulphonate,which is a natural polymer, derivedfrom wood processing in thepaper industry.

There are also more effective typeof water-reducing admixturesknown as high range water reducers,or super plasticisers. These can bringincreased fluidity and a reduced W/Cratio. The most commonly usedsuper plasticiser are: sulphonatedmelamine formaldehyde condensate(SMF); sulphonated naphthaleneformaldehyde condensate (SNF); andpolycarboxylate ethersuperplasticiser (PCE). SMF giveslittle or no retardation, which makesit effective at low temperatures orwhere early strength is critical. SMFoffers a good finish and iscolourless, so it is often used whereappearance is an important factor.

Chemical admixtures includeaccelerators - which, when added toconcrete, mortar, or grout, increasesthe rate of hydration of hydrauliccement, shortens the time forconcrete to set, or increases therate of hardening. Also, the setretarder is a form of chemicaladmixture, which delays or extendsthe setting time of cement paste inconcrete. This is useful for concretethat has to be transported a longdistance. Popular set retarders arecalcium lignosulphonates andcarbohydrate derivatives.

As described earlier, air entrainedadmixtures are surfactants, whichcause air, usually in small

quantities, to be incorporated asminute bubbles in the concreteduring mixing, typically to increaseworkability and frost resistance.

Mineral admixturesThere are two broad types ofmineral admixtures: cementitious;and pozzolanic.

Cementitious admixtures, such asGround granulated blast furnaceslag (GGBFS), possess cementingproperties of their own. Pozzolanicmaterial combines with calciumhydroxide (lime) to gaincementitious properties.

Concrete made with GGBFScement sets more slowly thanconcrete made with ordinaryPortland cement.

Pozzolans are most often used asan addition (or cement extender) to

Portland cement concrete mixturesto increase the long-term strengthand enhance other properties ofPortland cement concrete.Pozzolanic admixtures include: flyash; silica fume; rice husk ash; andmetakaolin. They act as filler, bynucleating, or by chemical reaction.

Interestingly, fly ash - the residueresulting from the combustion ofground or powdered coal - includessubstantial amounts of silicondioxide (SiO2) and calcium oxide(CaO). It offers several economic andecological benefits, including:improved workability; reducedsegregation, bleeding, heatevolution and permeability;inhibited alkaliaggregate reaction;and enhanced sulphate resistance.Equally interesting is Silica Fume. Ahighly-effective pozzolanic material,

silica Fume is used to improve theproperties fo concrete. It improvescompressive strength, bondstrength, and abrasion resistance.It reduces the permeability ofconcrete to chloride ions - and so ithelps in protecting reinforced steelfrom corrosion.

As mentioned, Clariant is amongstthe best suppliers of admixtures.Amongst providers, consider alsoBASF, offers perhaps the mostcomprehensive range of high-qualityadmixtures to improve the placing,pumping, finishing, appearance andconsistency of concrete. Its technicalsupport teams will also providecustomised solutions, help selectappropriate technologies, and offerguidance on optimising concretemixture proportions for the bestresults on site. �

Admixtures can be chemical or mineral

Durable and relatively inexpensive, concrete is increasingly the preferred option for roadbuilders

www.africanreview.com50

Despite the downturn incommodity prices that hasaffected Africa’s key markets

demand for cement in the Sub-Saharan region is continuing toexpand. Investment in new plant tocater for this demand is being led byDangote Cement, a subsidiary ofDangote Industries Ltd (DIL), and itsrival Lafarge Africa Plc. DangoteCement is increasing its annualcement production across Sub-Saharan Africa by a whopping 22mntonnes, from 40mn tonnes to aforecast 62mn tonnes. Factoriesinclude the US$450mn 2.5mn tonnesper year (tpy) cement plant inEthiopia, which can be doubled inthe short term; a US$452mn 3mn tpycement plant in Tanzania; and aUS$300mn 1.5mn tpy plant in Kenya.

Lafarge, meanwhile, plans todouble its 8.5mn tpy of installedSub-Saharan African capacity to17mn tpy by 2020. Speaking at thecompany’s end-June Annual GeneralMeeting (AGM) held in LagosMobolaji Balogun, chairman, board

of directors, Lafarge Africa Plcdeclared, "The 2016 FederalGovernment budget indicates asignificant increase in the spendingon infrastructure and capitalprojects…With the on-going 2.5mntpy expansion project in Calabar,which is expected to becommissioned before year end, andplans for Ashaka, our cementproduction capacity in Nigeria is onthe increase."

Lafarge ReadyMix Nigeriareported a 29.3 per cent growth inits 2015 turnover, over 2014.

Both companies are looking tocash in on the swathe ofinfrastructure projects announcedin this year’s Nigerian budget,including the construction of newrail and road links. Aliko Dangote,President/CEO, Dangote Groupestimates that the country losesUS$bn annually to the poorcondition of the asphalt roads. Andhis lobbying of both the federaland state governments - in whosejurisdictions well over 95 per centof roads are built with asphalt - toturn towards concrete in their

current road constructionprogrammes has met with somesuccess. The federal governmenthas now awarded Dangote Cementa tax waiver as an incentive tobuild roads out of concrete. It isfavouring the use of concretebecause about 80 per cent of thematerials used for asphalt roadconstruction are imported.

Sub-Saharan Africa’s concreteinfrastructure clearly has far to gobefore it catches up with the rest ofthe world though, a fact reflectedin the region’s low per capitacement consumption. According toEcobank Research, cementconsumption averages just 187kg inGhana, 126kg in Nigeria, 80kg inKenya and 61kg in Ethiopia percapita compared with the worldaverage of 513kg. However, theinnovative use of concrete in roadbuilding - once governments arepersuaded of its benefits - couldprovide the cement industry with amassive new opportunity to expandon the continent. �

Bobcat is now offering a wider range of grading solutions based around the company’scompact loaders and grader attachments


The expanded range of gradingequipment is designed for useby asphalt and concrete

contractors for excavating andgrading work for new roads,pavements, concrete flatwork,tennis courts, utilities andlandscaping projects. The companyhas allowed for the loader-mountedgrader attachments to be combined

with their sonic tracer kit, the firstsonic tracer system of its kind forcompact loaders, to provideautomatic grade control inapplications where lasers may notbe suitable.

The sonic tracer kit has theadvantage of being able to follownearly every terrain, especiallycompared to laser grading which

requires the job site to be on aplane. Sonic tracers also provide anadvantage when grading insidebuildings with obstacles where thelaser beam could be interrupted.The Bobcat sonic tracer system inparticular also offers the advantageif the user already has a laser systemmounted on the grader, they canalso mount the sonic tracer on theblade, allowing them to switchbetween using the grader with thesonic tracer or the laser system.

The graders can be convertedfrom standard units to laser oneseasily. The operator only needs tomount the receiver poles, clamp the

newly enhanced Bobcat laserreceivers onto the poles and plug inthe harnesses. Designed to operateusing CAN-bus communication, theBobcat laser receivers are easy tomount and dismount while offeringseveral features and benefits.

Installed on the blades of the HDGrader 108 and HD Grader 96 heavyduty grader attachments, the sonictracer emits ultrasonic signals tomaintain a set distance or elevationfrom an object, surface or theground, allowing the graders to beused to grade, level, and backfill ona multiple slope terrain whenfollowing a grade control. �

Along the construction industryvalue chain, choosing theright equipment ensures

productivity and overall quality ofwork. Technological innovations addeven more efficiency and security,walking side by side with new

techniques for civil engineering,which are continuously developedto maintain and build roads faster,at lower costs and higher quality.With 58 years’ experience in

manufacturing paving equipment,Ciber Equipamentos Rodoviários

operates in Latin America, Africa,Oceania and Southeast Asia. Thecompany represents a referencepoint in technology and equipmentfor the production of asphalt mixes,having already produced anddelivered to job fields more than1.800 plants in four continents.

Innovation for productivityCiber has developed a plant thatadapts completely to the inputs andoutputs. Before that, a particularplant productivity was achievedaccording to the characteristics ofthe inputs and the final product.With the new Ciber iNOVA 2000,maximum productivity has becomea constant, regardless of thecharacteristics of inputs andrequirements of the asphalt mix.

The iNOVA 2000 innovates inthe field of mobile asphalt plantsfor continuous production flow. Itoffers the largest productioncapacity in two mobilities,efficiency in fuel consumption,maximum performance in specialmix, ease of operation andoptimised maintenance.iNOVA 2000 combines the

concept of ultra mobile plant withhigh production capacity. The plantis transported and installed in twochassis and output ranges between100 to 200 t/h. Thus, land and seatransport costs are significantly loweras well as installation costs comparedto plants of the same production size.Also, the plant adapts to mostconstruction sites and presents a lesscomplex install procedure. �

Why BDMs in Africa need to understand sand and gravel washing needs,and provide a knowledgeable and personal service to their clients

There is a new ay forward in materialswashing. CDE reports that is wiitnessing astrategic shift by African quarry and mine

operators who recognise that to gain an edgeover their competitors, they need to offer thebest quality sand to their customers inconstruction markets. To target a better andmore profitable market segment and increasereturn on investment, operators are starting toinvest in more efficient sand and gravelwashing systems such as the popular CDEEvoWash, which comes with its own electriccontrol panel and is pre-wired.Whilst conventional bucket wheel washers

and screw classifiers are cheap to buy, they alsolose in excess of 20 per cent fine sand, whichleads to a lack of finer fractions of sandbetween 1mm and 300 micron in the gradeand quality of the final washed product.Another drawback is the loss of productionwhen settling ponds need to be cleaned on aregular basis.Water conservation remains a major

concern in Africa. Savvy customers oftencombine their plant with a CDE AquaCycle,which recycles 90 perc ent of used water andruns for as little as R3 (US$0.21)/tonne. Mobileand compact, CDE plants, with advanced nospill transfer points, high quality componentsand reduced maintenance, offer a simple, one-touch solution.

Wayne Warren, CDE Business Manager forSub-Saharan Africa said: “It is definitely worthlooking beyond the initial cost of theequipment to see that in the long run, bucketwheel washers and screw classifiers are actuallya money drain. “With a modular and economical sand

washing system that requires a minimalamount of civils and provides consistenthigh-quality sand in any quantities, the choiceis clear. “If you buy the right plant for your

operations, reduced maintenance, reducedmanpower, reduced slimes management andcontinuous operation with water control faroutweigh any short term savings.” CDE understands that operators may not

always feel confident to be left to their owndevices once their plant has been installed. CDEoffers a complete after care package to ourcustomers, who benefit from the best after-salesservice in the business. Wayne Warren continued, “For operators

located in very remote regions, we also advisestocking some spares on site to reduce risk incase of a breakdown or preventativemaintenance actions. We have a wealth ofexperience in washing applications in varioustypes of rock, so we are able to adviseour customers on the best recommendedspares package.” �

SEW-Eurodrive is set to unveil a range ofnew products at Electra Mining Africa 2016this September in Johannesburg, SouthAfrica - including: the new DRN series ofasynchronous motors, which complies withall of the requirements for European energy-efficiency class IE3; and the X-Seriesagitator, based on a modular concept thatincorporates many parts from the standardproduct platform.

The future at Electra Mining

BRIEFS

Trialling a service or a product is the most important factor for African miners whenchoosing any new supplier, according to Timetric Mining Intelligence Center (MIC). Itslatest survey of over 100 managers at operating African mines indicates how importantit is for mine operators to have ‘a sample of the product or service to trial’ or ‘an on-sitedemonstration of the product or service’. Timetric senior mining analyst Nez Guevarasaid, “Similar geological features can exist across many different mine sites and aparticular commodity can be produced at multiple locations, but this does not mean apiece of equipment with a set configuration can be as effective in each scenario. Theresults here show having the ability to see and experience how certain products andequipment operate under specific conditions is an invaluable tool for miners.”

North Safety Products Africa is set to showcase its fullrange of products, which are designed to mitigatevarious hazards that mining workers are exposed to, atElectra Mining Africa 2016 - including its latestengineering and consumable products.This will be the second time that North Safety has had

a presence at Electra Mining. As North Safety head ofmarketing at Lizette Kasselman said, “Electra Mining is aplatform that grants any personal protection or miningsupplier in the industry the opportunity to meetoperational personnel and decision-makers. It alsoallows us to showcase our broad product spectrum,which caters for every requirement.”This ranges from standard dust to hazardous

particles, dangerous chemicals and flash fire protection,encompassing a head-to-toe protection offering.“North Safety has been a supplier of protective

apparel for the past 60 years, and therefore it hasgarnered considerable expertise in terms of theindustry’s overall safety requirements.”A particular focus at Electra Mining Africa 2016 will

be North Safety’s addition of critical engineering andconsumable products to its current range of safety protective apparel.“This decision was based on our customers requesting a one-stop solution to their needs,”

Kasselman explained.The new engineering products include Reinol hand cleaners and industrial chemicals, Spanjaard

industrial lubricants and sprays, lifting machinery and repairs, lifting tackle and slings, Megarollerconveyor idlers and scrapers, allied screen and filter products, Petrozorb oil absorbents and oil-spillkits, industrial valves and slurry pumps, and specialised nuts and bolts. New consumable products onoffer include waste rags, silicone, grinding discs and general mining supplies.

Stockpile dust suppression has beensimplified with the I-CAT retractablestockpile dust ring (R-SDR) system, which hasbeen developed to address dust issues atconveyor discharge points.The R-SDR system creates a virtual curtain

around material flow for outstanding particlecontainment. As I-CAT technical managerMorne van Wyk said, “The R-SDR systemsurrounds the discharge flow on all sides,providing simple, focused dust managementthat is well suited to continuous dutyapplications, such as radial stackers.”The R-SDR system boasts a stainless steel

misting ring designed for mounting at the endof conveyor belts to aid in dust suppression atthe discharge point. What’s more, a variableconfiguration allows nozzles to be added,removed or replaced with different types andsizes to suit specific applications.

The PLC-controlled system also consumeslow amounts of water, and a booster pumpcan be added to increase water flow andpressure. Van Wyk says a hose can besupplied with the unit, which also comes withthe option of being equipped with a two-wayvalve for manual control of water flow.Van Wyk added, “The water hose connects

directly to male pipe threads on the ring.Water flow can be controlled between 12.3to 200.44 �/pm at 6.89 bar of input. A waterfilter can be added for use with non-potablewater, for droplet sizes ranging between 50and 200 microns.”

I-CAT’S NEW DUSTSUPPRESSION SOLUTION

Large-scale mining has the potential to play a critical role in helping to achieve Sustainable DevelopmentGoals (SDGs) in resource-rich countries, according to a report published at the recent United Nations High-Level Political Forum in New York, USA. The report, ‘Mapping Mining to the Sustainable Development Goals:An Atlas’, is a joint effort of the United Nations Development Programme, the World Economic Forum,

the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment and the Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

The 2030 Agenda and the SDGs, endorsed by all UN member states in 2015, represent the world’s plan ofaction for social inclusion, environmental sustainability and economic development. Meeting the SDGs by2030 will require unprecedented cooperation and collaboration among governments, non-governmentalorganisations, development partners, the private sector and communities. It will require all sectors andstakeholders to incorporate the SDGs into their own practices and operations.

Mining and aggregateprocessing equipment isused for a number of

different reasons, from separationand washing to dewatering.However, regardless of the aggregateproduct’s final application, be itconstruction material or roadsurfacing, the property a customer ismost interested in is the averageparticle size.Separating and sizing the wide

range of particle sizes generated bycrushing equipment is one of themost important functions after themilling process, and screens play alarge part in the operation. The roleplayed by screens is central to thequarrying process and there hasbeen a trend towards increasinglylarge units being installed at bigger

quarries as operators look toincrease their output. However,regardless of how big a screen maybe, and what volume of material ispassing through it, it is vital that itoperates efficiently.

Defining efficiencyEfficiency is defined differentlyaccording to screen function.Screens fall into two maincategories; separating screens -those that split the mixture intogrades according to particle size -and dewatering screens - those thatremove water from the final mixtureso it can be easily stored andtransported.The objective for separation

screens is for the maximum numberof the particles that are small

enough to pass through theapertures in the screen medium todo so. In contrast, the design ofdewatering screens ensures that themajority of the fine particles thatcould pass through the aperturesare retained so that the screen doesnot change the composition ofmixture when the water is removed.

The process that helps to ensure aseparating screen operatesefficiently is called stratification.This describes the ease with whichsmaller particles are able to fallbetween the gaps in larger particlesin order to find their way towardsthe apertures in the medium at thebase of the bed of material.If the correct level of stratification

(ease with which smaller particls areable to tell has been achieved, thedepth of the bed will graduallydecrease from the feed end to thedischarge end, as finer particles areremoved. Excessive bed depth at thedischarge end of the screen is a suresign of poor efficiency. The rule ofthumb used by many quarries isthat it should be no more than fourtimes the aperture size. �

HIMOINSA EXTENDS EQUIPMENT DISTRIBUTION IN SOUTHERN AFRICA

A specialist in the design, manufacture and

distribution electricity generation equipment,

Himoinsa has recently committed to opening a

subsidiary in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, in the

fourth quarter of this year. The head office of

the new subsidiary will be located in Port

Elizabeth, supported by nationwide sales and

service coverage across South Africa. The

subsidiary will also support the wider SADC

region, serving customers in the nearby

countries of Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi,

Botswana, Namibia, Lesotho and Swaziland.

South Africa is one of Africa’s leading

importers of generator sets. According to

sources, South Africa imported US$155mn of

generator sets in 2015, thereby becoming the

African country with the greatest demand in the

electricity generation market, followed by

Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria and Libya.

Himoinsa has a successful track record of

almost 35 years and has been operating in Africa

since the 1990s, with nearly twenty distributors

all over the continent. In Angola, the company

has an existing subsidiary and 25MW power

plant in Angola supporting the local utility,

which has been operating successfully since

2013. A local management team has already

been identified for the Southern Africa

subsidiary, providing the business with local

employees and vast experience of the power

generation business in the region. This

management team are excited by the

opportunity, believing that the quality and

durability of Himoinsa equipment, combined

with local engineering support and efficient

service intervals is ideal for the African market.

“Our objective is to be close to the market

and to bring the needs of the local market to our

factory in Europe. That is how we guarantee our

customers a made-to-measure product and rapid

service,” said Guillermo Elum, sales & marketing

director for Himoinsa in Europe, the Middle East

and Africa (EMEA). “All the projects we undertake

in South Africa, as is the case throughout the

world, include the commissioning of the units,

whenever the client so requires, together with

specialised on-site training for all the technicians

in order to guarantee that the units are

perfectly maintained."
