This research service examines the South African electric motor market over the period, 2004  2014. The product segments studied are AC Motors and DC Motors. Within the AC motors segment the AC Synchronous, Induction Squirrel Cage, Induction Slip-ring and Induction Flameproof motors are discussed. The DC motors segment will look at three product...

Opening up the power generation sector to independent power producers is imperative as Eskom has shown some of its limits, such as severe funding shortfall, an extremely tight power system, and new-build projects being continuously delayed while power demand shoots. The dominant position of Eskom in power generation, transmission, and distribution ...

The research service titled Grid Integration Challenges of Renewable Energy in South Africa deals with the issues involved with interconnecting variable renewable energy generation facilities into the South African transmission and distribution grid network. Renewable energy poses a new challenge to transmission system operators due to its inherent...

As the region with some of the lowest electrification rates in the world, Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) will exhibit continued growth of power pools. This growth is likely to be driven primarily by expanding transmission and distribution (T&D) networks within and between member countries. This outlook provides an analysis of the power pools in SSA, foc...

Renewable energy has taken centre stage in South Africa's expanding power generation capacity, necessitating development and maintenance of requisite transmission infrastructure. Switch gears, transformers, and reactors are critical in supplying quality power to customers in a cost-effective manner. Local research and development, manufacturing, an...

This report documents the South African switchgear market over the past five years in South Africa, with projections through to 2015. The market has been driven by large generation and transmission projects run by the state utility Eskom and various municipalities. As in many global markets, the medium voltage switchgear market has become increasin...

The South African electricity crisis is characterised by a significant unbalance between power demand and supply. This is partly the result of underinvestment in transmission and distribution infrastructure. This development has translated into total energy losses estimated at 8.0% in 2008. As a result, power and distribution transformers are seen ...

This study covers a 2010 overview of the Nigerian electricity industry, examining the market structure, drivers and restraints for growth and installed capacity. Following from these, market engineering measurements are analyzed and forecasted. In addition, an in-depth analysis of generation capacity including IPPs is performed, along with identifi...

The electricity markets of Kenya and Tanzania are power scarce, with low electricity access and per capita consumption levels. Electricity demand here is set to increase significantly, driven by the economic upturn and increasing urbanisation. Kenya and Tanzania are focusing on utilising their natural gas and geothermal energy resources to meet the...
