First steps in design
• Selection retrofit of technologies (lighting, water heating and thermal performance improvements)
• Selection of study sample (10 houses)• Retrofitting and monitoring housing through winter• 15 community based meetings• Project design drafting (using small scale CDM methods)• Project design registration• Fund raising for implementation• Business plan and transfer to implementers

Key methodological issues
• Taking account of poverty by including suppressed demand for energy service
• What does this mean?• How was it argued?• Difficulty – real and measurable emissions reductions• Difficulty – rigour versus simplicity
![Page 13: Kuyasa and its scale-up to a National Sustainable Settlements Facility](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568148af550346895db5c33c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Some notes on Kuyasa
• Implementation completed. • Many small sources of emissions make transaction costs
high.• Cost R30m for implementation.• R200 000 for verification (awaiting completion)• Scale… public investment and ownership of CERs.• Suppressed demand needs to be included in
methodological approach for replication.• NAMAs (Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions) may
be more appropriate.

VISION: A clearing house which enables and incentivises access to financing for clean energy services in all low income housing in South
Africa
MISSION: To establish a Facility which 1) administers a CDM programme, and 2) leverages and manages access to the additional
upfront financing required for the incremental capital costs of sustainable energy interventions in low income housing

NSSF progress to date
1. SSNA together with the CTCC developed Kuyasa as a pilot
2. REEEP funding to explore viable models for replication at scale, with a focus on financing
3. Programmatic CDM approved, providing avenue for carbon finance
4. Drafting Group established to provide guidance and legitimacy
5. Kuyasa being implement by SAEDF with DEAT grant finance
6. DANIDA funded development of a Business Plan for the NSHF
7. South African Export Development Fund (SAEDF) and Energy Development Corp. funding the development of a SWH programmatic methodology
8. DANIDA funding a work plan to achieve government endorsement and appointment of an incubator
9. DBSA funding the development of thermal efficiency methodology and programme/s and further establishment

National Sustainable Settlements Facility
• Institutional and Financial architecture• Methodological and Programmatic issues• Interface with housing developers
![Page 17: Kuyasa and its scale-up to a National Sustainable Settlements Facility](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568148af550346895db5c33c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Institutional and financial issues
• Currently leadership through a drafting Group established to provide guidance and legitimacy.
• Includes: DBSA, SANERI, DHS, DoE, Eskom, NHFC, DNA, SSNA, municipalities.
• Where should the Facility be situated institutionally?• The income from carbon, demand side management,
Renewable energy certificates, other externality interests..• Loss of earnings for the utilities need to be recovered.

Methodological approach
• Two new large scale methods • Solar Water Heating and • Thermal Performance improvements
![Page 21: Kuyasa and its scale-up to a National Sustainable Settlements Facility](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568148af550346895db5c33c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

High level Benefits
Social• Respiratory health burden reduced• Provision of hot water – health / comfort• Household cost savings due to energy efficiency • Employment opportunities (EPWP)
Economic• Peak demand reduced – defers new installed
capacity • Leadership for low cost housing / energy industry• Entrepreneurial opportunities
Environmental• Largest project of its kind in Africa - Leadership• City SWH target – 10% by 2010 (ie 80 000
houses) Project assists this target• Implementing global commitments
Governance• Local participation and decision-making
![Page 22: Kuyasa and its scale-up to a National Sustainable Settlements Facility](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568148af550346895db5c33c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
National Sustainable Settlements Facility (NSSF) Key Conclusions• Carbon finance for low income housing requires a long
term investment view.• But the returns to a programme are highly significant,
both carbon revenues and co-benefits• Risks are manageable.• The issue is around availability of upfront financing for
capital interventions and identifying an entity to drive the programme.
• There is strong interest from CC community internationally, especially in Gold Standard programme.
• What is the role of SA Government – avoided cost of supply (EEDSM?), job creation, health care, environmental services.

Conclusions into the future
• NSSF Model is replicable for other sub-sectoral mitigation approaches using projects to head to programmes to sub-sectors to future developing country commitments
