nearly 3 times the expected energy savings of 1,167GWh • Due to the oversubscription of the programme an additional R250m was requested and approval was granted in September 2011 • The expected savings to be incentivised by the R750m is 2,076GWh The market responded well to the pilot programme and Eskom is in the process of contracting for energy savings of 2,076GWh for R750m over a three year 19 January 2012 sustainability period ending 31 March 2015 8 Focus of RFP 2 and Revised Objectives The key difference between RFP 1 and RFP 2 of Performance Contracting is a focus on large, single industrial projects rather than mass roll-outs. Also, contractual mechanisms to support SD&L and BBBEE have been enhanced. Outcome of Objectives: Objectives: 1 Large Blocks of Sustainable Savings 2 Predictable & Rapid Delivery of Savings 3 Reliable Savings with Large Upfront Investments 4 Few Sites 5 SD&L and BBBEE Development - Focus on large, mainly industrial customers with few sites to ensure customer commitment through large capital investments - Increase confidence in respondents by adding confirmation of load profiles, customers and financing to the scorecard - Increase focus on SD&L and BBBEE development by setting firm targets 6 Less Administration Performance Contracting is a new concept – We have applied learning from Phase 1 to enhance the product offering in terms of objectives, scope, target market and contractual conditions. 19 January 2012 9 TECHNOLOGY KEY: PRIORITY 1 Current Solutions Issues Identified PRIORITY 2 Priority 3 Industrial ESCO Performance Contracting Standard Offer Standard Product Commercial / Agricultural Compressed Air, Ventilation, Lighting, Shower Heads, Heat Pumps, SWH etc 1) Large focus on energy solution in the commercial market. 2) Many solutions in same market. 3) Market preference based on price.

RFP will invite proposals based on fixed rates for high rate (55c/kWh) and low rate (10c/kWh) periods 2. Over-performance will be compensated but will not exceed the maximum payment value (contracted savings +10%) 3. If the programme is performing less than 90% of contracted delivery schedule then they will receive 42c/kWh in the high rate and 0c/kWh in the low rate 1. Respondents will be required to achieve a minimum of level for BBBEE status and to maintain and/or improve this level during the contract period 2. Respondents will be required to provide suitable targets for skills to be developed, jobs to be created, and local content to be procured for their Programmes Measurement & Verification 1. Eskom will be(M&V) responsible for performing M&V and will pay for the cost of M&V (excluding capital costs) 2. Any measurement equipment will be purchased and owned by either the project developer or customer 3. M&V certificates will be done per programme every 3 months post the start of the sustainability period Payment & Financing 1. Eskom will only pay for verified energy savings (through M&V) achieved within the sustainability period (starting 1 Jan 2013) 2. Project developers need to arrange upfront funding 3. The contract including baseline could be used as a “bankable” instrument Delivery & Execution Legal SD&L M&V Commercial IDM • Measurement & Verification • SD&L • Contract Management • Portfolio Cost Management • Portfolio Performance Monitoring • Portfolio Risk Management Tender Process & Evaluation Approach 1. Normal tender process held open 3 months 2. Proposals evaluated on gatekeepers and a weighted scorecard including, technical, confidence and SD&L evaluation criteria 3. Proposals will be stacked based on overall rating and awarded in order of the highest ranking until allocated budget is reached Formal design of the solution took into account lessons learnt from the pilot 19 relevant January 2012 functional areas and processes programme and have addressed all 13 Agenda • Welcome Tom Skinner • Evacuation Procedure Safety Representative • Session Objectives Tom Skinner • Background & Context Tom Skinner • RFP Scope Tom Skinner • Responses to Clarification Requests Tom Skinner • Tender Procedure Kamini Padayachee • SD&L Curtis Mapuga • Q&A Eskom Team • Session Closure Tom Skinner 19 January 2012 14 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 1 The rates are the same as the first Performance Contract RFP. Is that possible that in 2012 the same rate is being offered? Eskom Response Yes, the same rate applies for this round of Performance Contracting 19 January 2012 15 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 2 Is decentralised generation using gas-fired engines be considered. Eskom Response No, it is not considered under Performance Contracting. This falls within Eskom’s Co-gen programme. The Eskom approval processes are currently being followed and information will be provided at a later stage. 19 January 2012 16 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 3 Is motor replacement considered under Performance Contracting? Eskom Response Yes, motors are considered under Performance Contracting; however note that fuel switching does not. 19 January 2012 17 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 4 Is the new concept of liquid thermal insulation coating considered under Performance Contracting? Eskom Response Eskom is willing to consider the technology; however the M&V complexity of the programme will be taken into account. During evaluation Eskom will check the technology and test for reasonableness. 19 January 2012 18 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 5 Can the technology to be used in the projects be described as a broader solution encompassing several different technologies, the specific details of which would differ from site to site (as long as all technologies are Eskom approved)? This is because there’s a lot of upfront investment (time and resources) required to specify the project detail required in the Technical Questionnaire, and all technical project detail may not be available by the tender submission date. Eskom Response Yes, a mix of technologies can be proposed under one programme. It is to the benefit of the Project Developer to provide as much detail required for evaluation on the proposal. 19 January 2012 19 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 6 Does the following interventions fall within the scope of Eskom approved technologies: HVAC - VSD on Supply Air Fan ilo vortex dampers HVAC - Chilled water temperature reset HVAC - Condenser water temperature reset HVAC - VSD on cooling tower fans HVAC - Economy Cycle HVAC - Variable primary flow chilled water system HVAC - Night purging HVAC - Fresh air / exhaust air heat recovery HVAC - Operating hours optimisation HVAC - Recommission HVAC - Reduction Air Changes in theatres HVAC - Tumble drier heat reclaim Hot Water - Recommission Hot Water - Improve Gas Boiler Plant Hot Water - Replace Steam Calorifier with Direct Gas Hot Water - insulation Lighting - High efficiency lamps and control gear Lighting - Occupancy control Hot Water - Circulation pump timer control Tenant Equipment - Reduce Autoclaves Hot Water - Solar Heating Ceiling - Insulate Hot Water - Heat Pump heating Eskom Response Yes, provided it is clarified during M&V planning phase. 19 January 2012 20 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 7 Clarify the difference between base rate and reduced rate. When does each apply? Eskom Response The base rate is R0.55c/kWh which will be paid to the Project Developer for Verified Energy Savings. The reduced rate of R0.42c/kWh applies when the Project Developer underperforms meaning that the accumulated Verified Energy Saving for the Programme, at a given date of evaluation, has not achieved at least 90% of the accumulated and agreed Forecasted Energy Saving for the same given date of evaluation. 19 January 2012 21 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 8 The examples in the technical questionnaire point towards equipment replacements, old for new. A proposed programme entails customised re-design and modification of equipment, mainly HVAC equipment. Does re-design and optimisation qualify under the Eskom / NERSA approved technologies? Eskom Response Yes, provided it is not a new installation. (It cannot be a new installation in a new building) 19 January 2012 22 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 9 Load profiles are available for 8 out of 54 sites, and propose to use this as a basis for estimation. Is this adequate, or are individual load profiles for each site a pre-requisite? Eskom Response Yes, provided there is synergy between sites, it is acceptable but it may have a negative impact during evaluation. 19 January 2012 23 Responses to Clarification Requests Clarification Request 10 What will be the effects of variation against the proposed delivery schedule, in particular, are there incentives or penalties for early or late delivery? (Other than a gain / loss of savings) Eskom Response If the contracted Forecasted Energy Savings exceed the Verified Energy Savings by more than 10% on a cumulative basis, Eskom will apply the reduced rate for the delivered savings until delivery is restored in line with the contracted delivery schedule. If the contracted size of savings is reached earlier, Eskom will pay up to 10% for over performance and then the contract will end. 19 January 2012 24 Agenda • Welcome Tom Skinner • Evacuation Procedure Safety Representative • Session Objectives Tom Skinner • Background & Context Tom Skinner • RFP Scope Tom Skinner • Responses to Clarification Requests Tom Skinner • Tender Procedure Kamini Padayachee • SD&L Curtis Mapuga • Q&A Eskom Team • Session Closure Tom Skinner 19 January 2012 25 Tender Procedure: Overview • RFP is available on Eskom’s tender bulletin • Last date to submit clarifications: 27 February 2012 • Ensure clarification requests are clear and concise • Indicate if the question posed is unique to your proposal (confidential) • Tenders close: 09 March 2012 at 10:00 • Tenders submitted to the email address will not be accepted • No late submissions will be accepted • Delivery: Eskom Holdings Tender Office, MWP 19 January 2012 26 Tender Procedure: Response Format • Three separate files: Component 1: Commercial and Financial proposal Component 2: Technical proposal Component 3: Supplier Development and Localisation proposal • Number of copies: Hardcopies – 1 original & 2 copies Electronic copy – 1 Compact Disc (CD) • Clearly marked: “PS(IDM)/2011/KP/01” • Tender returnable meeting: 15 February 2012 19 January 2012 27 Tender Procedure: Communication • Email all communication / clarifications to [email protected] • Addressed to: Kamini Padayachee • One point of contact between Eskom’s Representative and the tenderer • No individual separate discussions will be allowed • Use the format provided (Annex 8.2) 19 January 2012 28 Gatekeepers & Evaluation Criteria • Gatekeepers: • Achieve minimum energy savings of 30GWh within High-rate Periods over the Sustainability Period. • All technologies must be Eskom approved in line with NERSA guidelines • Proposed savings must be realised within South African borders. • Evaluation criteria: • Technical: 70% • Size & time, actual load profiles, savings per site and confirmed customers and finance. • B-BBEE and Supplier Development & Localisation: 30% • B-BBEE verification and localisation 19 January 2012 29 Agenda • Welcome Andrew Etzinger • Evacuation Procedure Safety Representative • Session Objectives Tom Skinner • Background & Context Tom Skinner • RFP Scope Tom Skinner • Responses to Clarification Requests Tom Skinner • Tender Procedure Kamini Padayachee • SD&L Curtis Mapuga • Q&A Eskom Team • Session Closure Tom Skinner 19 January 2012 30 We have a mandate to contribute positively to the development of the country Our mandate is to achieve maximum and sustainable local development impact through leveraging Eskom’s procurement spend in a manner that allows flexibility within the business in order to accommodate government local development initiatives and policies 19 January 2012 31 We have aligned our focus with the government’s objectives… Initiative ASGI-SA Supplier Development B-BBEE Industrialisation NIPP Localisation CSDP Job creation IPAP Skills Development NIPF NGP Development Objectives ASGISA NIPF IPAP CSDP NIPP B-BBEE NGP Accelerated and Shared Growth Initiative for South Africa National Industrial Policy Framework Industrial Policy Action Plan Competitive Supplier Development Programme The National Industrial Participation Programme Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment New Growth Path We have aligned along local development objectives rather than policy and other government initiatives, thus we can address the requirements of multiple programmes simultaneously and without having to develop new organisations or functions 19 January 2012 32| 32 Local development opportunities should be identified in all procurement transactions Project Sourcing Commodity Sourcing Primary Energy Tactical Sourcing Supplier Development and Localisation Local development opportunities should be identified in all procurement transactions 19 January 2012 33 Eskom’s B-BBEE Recognition Contribution Level B-BBEE Recognition Level Level 1 135% Level 2 125% Level 3 110% Level 4 100% Level 5 80% Level 6 60% Level 7 50% B- BBEE Companies OTH Level 8 10% Non -
