There are different ways of operating solar hybrid systems.
- The system can be of private or public ownership.
- The operation can be duty of the owner, but could also be delegated to someone else.
- ...
Feel free to add your own examples!
The following example describes the operation model for solar hybrid systems within EnDev Senegal.
Example: EnDev Senegal
- work in progress -
In Senegal EnDev implements ERSEN (Projet Electrification Rurale Sénégal), a project for rural electrification which is part of the Programme for the Promotion of Rural Electrification and the Provision with Sustainable Household Combustibles PERACOD.
The Senegalese Agency for Rural Electrification (ASER) is in charge of different approaches to rural electrification. One is ERIL (Electrification Rurale d’Initiative Locale) that comprises rural electrification projects of local initiative.
ERSEN ist implemented by EnDev under ERIL regulations. An ERIL project is an initiative of local public or private actors implementing a rural electrification project in an area in which no other project is planned for the next three years to come.
The main characteristics of an ERIL project are defined by ASER as follows:
- The production systems are state owned.
- Local actors initiate the project, are responsible for the implementation and contribute to the initial investment costs.
- The companies that install the equipment are chosen through a tender. ASER ensures the compliance with standards during installation and supervises commissioning.
- ASER chooses an operator through a tender who is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the equipment.
- The operator is a natural or legal person of Senegalese private law. He has to be capable of carrying out all the necessary tasks concerning the operation of the system, namely technical, commercial and financial management, for a period of 15 years.
- The users pay an initial connection fee and a monthly fee to the operator for the electricity service provided. The tariffs are determined by the Regulatory Commision for the Electricity Sector (CRSE) based on socio-economic studies on the population in the area and the business plan of the operator.
- Les localités ciblées ne doivent pas être dans le périmètre d’intervention du PPER - Envergure des projets ERIL: un ou plusieurs villages d’une communauté rurale pour un maximum de 200 usagers.
La CRSE et l’ASER assurent le contrôle de la qualité des installations et du service électrique ainsi que le respect des dispositions tarifaires en vigueur. Des modules de formation peuvent être organisés au bénéfice des exploitants. Les exploitants doivent à ce titre remettre aux autorités des rapports d’activités détaillés périodiques. Les collectivités locales veillent à la bonne gestion de la structure en charge de l’exploitation et s’assurent que les bénéficiaires paient régulièrement leurs factures à date échue. Les collectivités locales tiendront un registre des réclamations qui fera l’objet d’un rapport à la CRSE et à l’ASER dans le cadre du contrôle de la qualité de service.
