1 Power transmission is a crucial lifeline for East Africa - it is through this that power generation and industrialisation will flow. The potential for cross border trade, increased GDPs, job creation, infrastructural development and rural electrification will energise provincial East Africa, changing lives and putting the region on the map. Without transmission, generated power will simply go to waste. This meeting is vital to discussing action points in unlocking the current deadlock and opening transmission up for investment. It will also unite financiers, donor organisations, power developers and regional governments in a closed meeting to examine what crucial first steps must be taken to solving the transmission crisis. If you would like to contribute to this agenda either by sponsoring, speaking or attending, then please do get in touch with me: veronica@energynet.co.uk Tel: Breaking the Transmission Barrier Windsor Golf and Country Club, Nairobi, Kenya 25-27th March 2015

Hon Aston P Kajara, Minister of State for Finance, Planning and Economic Development, Uganda Welcome Remarks: Senator Kiraitu Murungi, Kenya Address from Rt Hon David Ekee Ethuro M.P., Speaker for the Senate, Kenya Networking Coffee Break Discussion 1: The Critical Role of Transmission in the Industrialisation of East Africa This session will look what is needed to unlock the current transmission bottleneck and enable effective transmission. It will also explore what the current barriers to transmission are, and how the private and public sectors can assist with breaking these and enabling the growth of industrialisation. Moderator: Luiz Melin, Former Managing Director of the International and Trade Finance Divisions, The Brazilian Development Bank H.E. Hon Germaine Kamyirese, Ministry of Energy, Rwanda Dr Babu Ram, Chief Engineer, African Development Bank Mohamed Mustafa Rafea, CEO, Midal Cables Dr Clinton Carter-Brown,Technical Advisor, IPP Office, Department of Energy, South Africa Minute Recess Discussion 2: Power Utilities: The Key To Unlocking The Transmission Barrier? Power utilities play an important role in East Africa, as they engage in the generation, transmission, and
3 distribution of electricity for the region. The consumer relies heavily on the utility, as does industry. This session will look at: What are the inefficiencies that lead to the funding shortfalls which prevent utilities from maintaining networks, replacing parts, and investing in infrastructure improvements? How can this be avoided? What developed regional regulatory reform networks are needed to benefit and rapidly improve the sector? What substantial impact can the private sector play in reducing hidden costs to power distribution? Would the introduction of, for example, performance contracts offering clear incentives for managers improve efficiency? How can the next generation be inspired into the sector? How can utilities develop local content and improve the sustainability of utilities in the next years? Moderator: Professor Izael Pereira Da Silva, Energy Manager, Strathmore Energy Research Centre, Kenya Joshua Choge, Chairman, KenGen, Kenya Engineer Joel Kiilu, CEO and Managing Director, KETRACO, Kenya Engineer Felchesmi Mramba, Managing Director, TANESCO, Tanzania Charles Chapman, Managing Director, UMEME, Uganda Engineer Benson Mureithi, General Manager for Network Management, Kenya Power and Lighting Company, Kenya Networking 14:30-15:45 Discussion 3: The Vital Role Of The Eastern African Power Pool in Driving Transmission Forward This session will explore the vital role of the EAPP and how it can help deliver cross border transmission effectively. How will regional interconnectors affect industrialisation and the growth of job creation? What critical role does the Eastern African Power Pool play? EAPP is one of the most advanced power pools in Africa, but what is hindering the development of cross border transmission lines? What are the prerequisites for the EAPP to work effectively in the region with regards to trading rules? Importing power is an expensive but reliable option. However, with the majority of countries from the region wanting to both generate and distribute their own power, how can this be managed efficiently? What lessons can be learned from regions in South America, and countries such as the United States, with their successful delivery of power to remote regions? How did they overcome land ownership issues and political constraints to deliver power to the consumer? Moderator: Engineer John Mativo, Head of Technical Services, KETRACO Joseph Matochi, Manager of Projects, East African Power Pool Mark Carrato, Chief Office of Economic Growth and Power Africa Kenya Team Leader, United States Embassy to Kenya Siyanaga Malumo, Chairman, Copperbelt Energy Corporation, Zambia Engineer Emma Kiilu, Chairperson, Energy Regulatory Commission, Kenya Laurencia Njagi, Senior Energy Specialist, The World Bank Group Networking Coffee Project East Africa Interconnector Challenge- Presented by KETRACO
4 This session will look at a hypothetical interconnector which runs through various countries in East Africa. Participants will be split up into working groups to find solutions for a regional interconnector project in need of financing and project managing. At the end of the session, all groups will be brought back together to present and discuss their findings. Members of the winning team will be presented with a prize. Presenter: Joel Kiilu, Managing Director and CEO, KETRACO and John Mativo, Head of Technical Services, KETRACO) Day 1 Closing Remarks: Veronica Bolton-Smith, Programme Development Manager, EnergyNet Simon Gosling, Managing Director, EnergyNet DAY 2: Friday 27th March Registration and Welcome Coffee EnergyNet Welcome Address: Veronica Bolton-Smith, Programme Development Manager, EnergyNet Discussion 4: Financing of Transmission Networks: What is Limiting Private Sector Participation? What holds back private sector participation in financing transmission networks? Is it the lack of a common regulatory framework? Are some countries in the region more developed than others? What are the political constraints of financing an entire transmission line? Do some transmission projects lack bankability? If so, how can these issues be addressed? This session will look at: Where are the opportunities for private sector for participation are independent power producers (IPP s) a solution? What are the barriers to investment for IPP s, is there a greater role for them to play? What is the shape of current macro-economic strategy in the region and public finances? What incentives can be given to private equity and dedicated infrastructure funds to play a greater role in transmission financing? What potential exists, for example within the manufacturing industry in East Africa, if transmission were to be adequately financed? How are IPP s dealing with the feed in tariffs for renewable energy companies? Moderator: Dimitri Papaefstratiou, DLA Piper Hon Maria Kiwanuka, Senior Advisor to the President at State House, President s office in charge of Finance, Uganda Dr Stephen Njiru, Director, Geothermal Development Company Stuart Heather-Clark, Partner and the Power Sector Lead Sub Saharan Africa, Environmental Resources Management Albert Mugo, Managing Director, KenGen Kyle Denning, CEO, Viability Africa Bart Tsala, The Kidagia Group Koffi Klousseh, Principal Investment Officer, International Finance Corporation Networking Coffee Discussion 5: How Unlocking The Transmission Deadlock Will Drive Down The Cost Of Regional
5 Borrowing A regional transmission network will underpin industrialisation which in itself underpins the regions ability borrow on the international debt markets, promoting trust and international engagement on a scale never before seen in Africa. What critical first steps need to be taken to improve regional credit worthiness, reducing the cost of borrowing and further increase investment potential to East Africa What comparisons can be drawn from growth of the Asian Tiger markets compare with East Africa s regional development What regional policies and regulatory frameworks need to be adopted by the legislature in order to move this forward? What social and economic impact might this have for the people of East Africa? How big are the opportunities for East African countries that fix their transmission barriers?
