APPENDIX E—TERMS OF REFERENCE

Introduction

These Terms of Reference (ToR) outlines the requirements for preparation of a Feasibility Study for Supplying Heat from the lignite fired power plant Kosovo B (PPKB) primarily with the objective of supplying heat to the District Heating (DH) System in Prishtina.

Background

GENERAL BACKGROUND The provision of heating services for the population of Kosovo is essential to their survival and improvement in quality of life. At present, District Heating covers only 5% of heat demands in Kosovo, therefore electricity is the predominant source of energy for space heating and tap water heating in households is not connected to district heating. Even in buildings connected to district heating, tap water heating is usually done with electricity. The high demand for electricity in winter creates severe shortages, requiring Kosovo to import electricity and to regulate the supply. This not only leads to a fiscal burden but also disrupts economic activities.

Increased use of affordable District Heating would reduce the pressure on the power system.

The Kosovo Trust Agency (KTA) is, as part of the UN Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), acting as custodian of assets of Publicly Owned Enterprises (POE), including the DH Companies and the Power Company. For the DH companies KTA is in charge of following functions:

� Oversight management of the DH Companies and chairing the Supervisory Boards, � Co-ordination of Donors funds, and � Strategic policies and developments of DH-sector

Recently, EU (EAR) has launched a Tender for support to undertake corporate restructuring, of selected POE’s, including the DH-Companies and the Power Company.

The key project deliverable will be incorporation of the organization. This means that the DHC’s will be reorganized into legal corporate entities with:

� Asset registers and opening balance sheet(s), � Statutes, charter/bylaws defining the responsibilities of management and the Board, � Registration of each corporate entity.

After incorporation, an ancillary deliverable will be the production of an information memorandum for lenders.

THE PRISHTINA DISTRICT HEATING SYSTEM

Termokos, the district heating company in Prishtina, is a local public utility company that operates the district heating system in Prishtina. The company has currently around 150 employees. The heating system serves about 12,000 apartments (614,000 m2), the hospital

Page 8: CHP Feasibility Study

(79,000 m2), official buildings (207,000 m2) and commercial premises (42,000 m2). The production is provided by two 58 MWth heavy fuel oil fired boilers and two new (1999-2000) 7 MWth light fuel oil fired boilers in the hospital area. The distribution system consists of 55 km of pipes and about 220 substations in the primary network. Last heating season, peak demand was some 70-80 MW. Clients are generally connected via substations equipped with heat exchangers. Domestic Hot Water (DHW) is not supplied from District Heating. The system is operated during the heating season (approximately 15 October –15 April), during the warmer part of the year it is shut down. Furthermore, the system is generally shut off during nighttime, in order to save fuel and water. During the recent heating seasons the intention has been to start continuous (24 h) operation, which has been possible for shorter periods of time, but has proved difficult to continuously achieve, due to scarce fuel supply, and heavy water leakages. The refurbishments so far carried out, including; i) relatively large scale pipe replacement program; ii) refurbishment of substations, and; iii) installation of a large substation hydraulically dividing the Sunny Hill (an area at a higher altitude than the rest of the city) network from the main system, have improved the leakage situation. During the heating season 2003/2004 leakage rate was reduced to around 400 m3/day compared with 800 m3/day in 2000/2001. Further refurbishment of the network will gradually be carried out, with an objective of reaching a leakage rate of 40-60 m3/day within the next three years. Client heating demands have during recent years not been fully met, partly due to the poor technical condition of the system, partly due to scarce fuel supply. Supply situation has however, drastically improved the last two heating seasons, due to the technical system refurbishment and improved fuel supply. The system has so far been operated in production-oriented way, and clients have been billed according to the heated area, not according to actual heat consumption. However, after installation of variable speed drives on the distribution pumps and control valves at the substations as well as appropriate controls for these, the system will be transferred into a demand driven operation. This will be accompanied by a gradual transfer towards a billing system based on actual consumption at the substation level. Low collection rates have been the major obstacle to financial reconstruction of the company. However, last heating season showed a drastic improvement, from ca 29% of billed amount in 2002/2003 to around 45% in 2003/2004.

POWER PLANT “KOSOVO B”

The thermal cycle includes re-superheating and a maximum steam temperature of 542 °C is foreseen. Maximum pressure is about 170 bar.

URBAN DEVELOPMENT IN PRISHTINA

The City of Prishtina has grown considerably during and after the conflict and has now a population of some 400,000 to 450,000 people, the municipality planners foresees a further increase in population to around 640,000 to 800,000 the year 2020. Currently about 80,000 of the inhabitants live in apartment buildings, constituting some 20% of the building stock. The main portion of the apartment buildings (ca 65,000 inhabitants) is currently connected to the Termokos DH system. The municipality has elaborated an ambitious development plan for the period to 2020. The plane includes a large housing program that eventually would switch the portion of apartment buildings from the current situation to a status where about 50% of the population would live in such accommodation. The municipality has declared an intention to promote DH as the preferred means of space heating and provision of DHW. Details of infrastructure planning are foreseen to be available at the Department of Urban Development and Construction of the Prishtina Municipality during the autumn 2004.

THE PROJECT

Project Outline

Current DH production system is not technically or financially sustainable. Even after the recent refurbishment the two base load boilers will probably continue to have a low efficiency and possibly unsatisfactory reliability. Furthermore, remaining lifetime, considering poor maintenance and operation, and the frequent starts and stops undertaken, is limited. Furthermore, base load production utilizing heavy fuel oil is hardly financially sustainable and a less optimal solution from environmental viewpoint. Therefore, new base load production is a necessity within a perspective of a few years. The nearby power stations have always been a natural option for supplying base load to Prishtina. A project was initiated in the 80’s to supply heat from an industrial CHP plant close to the older power plant “Kosovo A”. However the project was never brought to completion, parts of the pipeline were installed and construction of a heat exchanger building at the District Heating production plant was commenced. The building structure and parts of the pipeline still exist. The current project aims at extracting heat from PPKB and transfer through a transmission pipeline to the Prishtina District Heating system. Preliminary assessment indicates a suitable extraction and transmission capacity of some 90 MWth.

Page 10: CHP Feasibility Study

Investments and Financing

Preliminary assessments (ESTAP module H) indicate an investment for the complete heat transmission system of around US$ 18 million, under the assumption that part of the piping and the building from the abandoned project can be reused. The Kosovo Consolidated Budget (KCB) has allocated funding for the project, currently € 2.5 million. These funds will be utilised for project preparation, and for part funding of project implementations. It is highly unlikely that the KCB could fund the entire investment, which is why external finance will be sought. The law on Concessions, expected to be passed by the Assembly and promulgated by the Special Representative of the Secretary General (SRSG), may increase the likelihood of attracting foreign and private capital. Objective of the Consultancy

The overall objective of the Consultancy is to: • Prepare a Feasibility Study for the project with a sufficient quality to justify the

contribution from KCB and acquire financing from International Finance Institutions or Private sector

• Assist the client to take initial contacts with potential financiers and prepare a realistic proposal for project financing.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Prishtina has grown considerably in the last years and has now a population of approximately 400,000 residents. The municipality predicts an increase of up to 800,000 inhabitants in the year 2020. The main portion of the existing apartment buildings without domestic water heating is connected to the district heating system. The existing district heating system in Prishtina is supplied by two heavy fuel oil boilers installed in the boiler station. The heat supply is insufficient due to a bad condition of the existing district heating system. For economical and ecological reasons heavy fuel oil boilers represent an inappropriate source of base heat load supply. From economical and environmental point of view the base heat load supplied from the Thermal Power Plant Kosovo B gives an opportunity of a more appropriate heat supply. The existing boilers shall be used as peak load boilers. The TPP Kosovo B is located only 10.5 km away from the main boiler house in Prishtina. The following main new units should be installed in case the base heat load is supplied from the TPP Kosovo B:

• heating station in the TPP Kosovo B • main pipeline • heating station in Prishtina

The following issues were considered in the study:

Task Issue Task 1 • heat consumption in accordance to the predicted growth of the city

• temperature regime of the district heating system in Prishtina Task 2 • preliminary least cost analysis Task 3 • assessment of current status of installations Task 4 • optimization of the heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B

• consideration of the heat storage tank • selection of the other main parameters for the base heat load supply

from the TPP Kosovo B • investment cost and operating data • time schedule

Task 5 • institutional analysis Task 6 • financial analysis

• sensitivity analysis Task 7 • environmental impact assessment Task 8 • identification of sources of finance

Page 18: CHP Feasibility Study

Executive summary 1-2

File: Summary-par1-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 0 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

Heat consumption and heat load have been considered due to the predicted high expansion of the city. In accordance with the EU regulation already in force and the one anticipated a significant reduction of the heat consumption in new buildings in comparison with the existing ones is foreseen. Moreover, a part of the existing buildings is supposed to be reconstructed. Domestic water heating in the new buildings will be connected to the district heating system. The economic performance of the district heating system depends on the number of factors. They range from heat generation and distribution to house substations and customer installations and they are interrelated. Over-dimensioning of the existing utilities and selection of a more reasonable design ambient temperature were taken into account by determining the temperature regime. The selected heat loads for low, medium and high scenario are as follows:

There were many activities performed in the past concerning base load heat supply from the Thermal Power Plant Kosovo A and B. Technical documentation for the district heating of the city of Prishtina from the Kosovo A Thermal Power Plant was made in 1993. The installation started after the documentation was completed and stopped due to the crisis in the Kosovo region. The current status of the installed equipment is as follows:

unit current status of the installation current status of the equipment

heating station at the TPP Kosovo A

installation has not started

pipeline from the TPP Kosovo A to the heating station in Prishtina

most of foundations for supports are finished, most of the pipeline is temporary welded

some foundations are damaged pipes and elbows are highly corroded

heating station in Prishtina

main civil structures are erected

the building is in a quite good condition

If we would like to assure a reliable operation and an increased heat consumption the use of the existing pipeline is not recommended. The existing heating station in Prishtina is in a good condition and appropriate for the designed purpose. It is foreseen that the existing civil structure will be completed in accordance with the revised technical documentation. Several options were considered in the optimization of the base heat load supply from the TPP Kosovo B. The options were divided into two main groups:

• installation of the main pipeline in one phase • installation of the main pipeline in two phases

In both options, the supply and the return pipelines shall be installed at the beginning of the project. In case of the one-phase installation, the capacity of the pipeline is sufficient for maximal load. In case of the two-phase installation, an installation of the third pipeline is foreseen after the consumption rises up to the appropriate level. Several nominal diameters of the main pipeline (from DN350 up to DN700) were taken into consideration.

The foreseen heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B covers the range from 90% to 100 % of the total heat consumption regarding the required heat load. The reduction of the electricity production in the TPP Kosovo B is approximately 0,2 MWhe/MWht. The installation of a heat storage tank was also considered. The main advantage of the heat storage tank is higher electricity production. The heat is supplied to the tank during the night load reduction of the power plant and withdrawn at rush hours of the electric consumption. In spite of all that we do not recommend the installation of the heat storage tank due to the low absolute level of the net present value, inaccurate production costs and electricity sales prices. The heating station in the TPP Kosovo B will be installed in the new building. The selected location for the heating station is near the north-west side of the main turbine building. The main parts of the heating station are as follows:

• connection to the steam turbines (unit B1 and B2) • heat exchangers • main circulating pumps • system for maintaining of the static pressure • other equipment

The main pipeline will connect the heating station in the TPP Kosovo B with the heating station in Prishtina. The route of the pipeline runs along the Prishtina-Mitrovica main motorway. Two pre-insulated pipes, 2 x DN450 and DN700 are foreseen. The length of the pipeline is 10,500 m. The heating station in Prishtina will be installed in the existing building which was built several years ago near the boiler house. The building is located on the west side of the boiler house. The main parts of the heating station are as follows:

• heat exchangers • main circulating pumps • auxiliary circulating pumps • connection to the existing boiler house

The Kyoto Protocol objectives and, more recently, the constraints on energy sources enhanced the priority given to energy efficiency policies. The Combined Heat and Power (CHP Project) is a fuel efficient energy technology that, unlike conventional forms of power generation, puts to use the by-product heat that is normally wasted to the environment. From the environmental point of view the advantages of the Pristina CHP project are evident. Due to an increase of the overall fuel efficiency the specific emissions of carbon dioxide will be reduced. The reductions of the emissions calculated at the existing heat demand are as follows:

• 23.6% reduction of CO2 emissions • 91.1% reduction of SO2 emissions

File: Summary-par1-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 0 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

Depending on different future heat demand projections the CO2 emissions will increase substantially according to the heat demand growth. On the other hand, the SO2 emission quantities will be lower than the reference value even in case of the high heat demand scenario.

There are many types of finances potentially available to energy projects and it is usually a mixture of different sources of finance which results in a financial package. The main financial sources available to the project are:

− The World Bank Group, − European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), − The European Investment Bank (EIB), − Global Environment Facility (GEF) funds, − Government export financing agencies, − Domestic government, − International commercial banks, − Venture capital companies, companies that are interested in taking an equity stake in

the project and − contractors and suppliers debt financing.

As a general rule, the maximum debt equity split required by the international financial institutions is 70% debt and 30% of equity financing. If TERMOKOS and the local community can not assure at least 30% of their own financial sources, concession or BOT model of financing would be appropriate. Concession or BOT model was not selected due to the existing low collection rates. It is expected that the major part of the project will be financed by one of the international banks. Their share will be slightly over 60%. Furthermore, it is expected that Kosovo Government will, according to current legislation, grant a loan to finance a part of the first phase of the project. The governmental loan will represent 17% in total financing of the project. The rest of the financial sources will be provided by Termokos. Termokos funds will be primarily used to cover financing cost i.e. interest during construction and financial fees. The majority of Termokos funds are expected in the second phase of the project, when Termokos will already realize the financial benefits of the first phase of the project. The financial sources are presented in the following table. Financial sources Structure Total Phase I.

The figure above presents the cost price of the district heat without connection to the TPP Kosovo B and for the scenario with connection to the TPP Kosovo B. In case there is no connection to the Kosovo B, the cost price in 2005 will be 44.38 EUR/MWh. In the future years, the cost price will increase mainly because of the raise of financing costs. Due to a long receivables collection period the amount of the short term debt increases, which results in higher financing costs.

NET CASH FLOW

The period till 2014 can be defined as a construction period. In this period, Termokos will raise long term loans to finance the investment and short term loans to cover loss from operations. Therefore, the net cash flow in this period ranges around zero. From the year 2014 onward, the net cash flow begins to rise. The main reason of the net cash flow rise lies in the expected growth of the district heat consumption which at present district heating prices yields big profits.

When interpreting the sensitivity analysis results one must bear in mind that the economics of the project were calculated as a difference between two scenarios, the one without connection to the TPP Kosovo B and the other with connection to the TPP Kosovo B. A major cost item in case of no connection to the TPP Kosovo B is fuel oil costs. Therefore the profitability of the project is very sensitive to fuel oil costs. The second most influential issue is change in the production scope, and in the scope of district heat sales, respectively. The third issue is the project sensitivity to investment costs. The project is least sensitive to change in the district heating purchase price and district heating sales price.

The existing low collection rates lead the project in a vicious circle. Because of low collection rates there are no funds to carry out the project. The increase of the collection rate is the key condition for implementation of the project.

Most European district heating projects have two types of institutional models. The first model is a single company responsible for heat generation, transmission and distribution. The second model includes two or more companies responsible for heat generation, transmission and distribution. The actual situation in Pristina is that there is an existing heating company TERMOKOS, which operates the district heating network. Another fact is that the Power Plant Kosovo B is also an independent business entity. Therefore we assume that in case of Pristina the most feasible solution is to adopt the model of two independent companies. The business relationship between TERMOKOS and the Power Plant Kosovo B would be regulated by a Thermal Energy Service Agreement. The study approved that from the economical and the environmental point of view the connection of the district heating system in Prishtina to the TPP Kosovo B is an appropriate solution.

1. INTRODUCTION The City of Prishtina has grown considerably in the last years and has now a population of approximately 400,000 residents. The municipality predicts an increase of up to 800,000 inhabitants in the year 2020. The main portion of the existing apartment buildings without domestic water heating is connected to the district heating system. The existing district heating system in Prishtina is supplied by two heavy fuel oil boilers installed in the boiler station. For economical and ecological reasons heavy fuel oil boilers are not appropriate for base load heat production. The base load heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B is a better option. The existing district heating system in Prishtina is in a bad condition and lacks a contemporary control system. The supply temperature is limited and the operation stopped during the night due to bad condition of the network. These restrictions cause an insufficient heat supply to the apartments at low ambient temperatures. Heat consumption and heat load have been considered due to the predicted high expansion of the city. Studies concerning the existing heat consumption have not been made. Instead of measured data of the heat consumption in Prishtina relevant data from other cities were used. The allowed heat consumption in accordance with former regulation, the one still in force and the anticipated one was considered. In accordance with the EU regulation already in force and the one anticipated a significant reduction of heat consumption in new buildings in comparison with the existing ones is foreseen. One part of the existing buildings is foreseen for reconstruction as well. Domestic water heating in the new buildings will be connected to the district heating system. The economic performance of the district heating system depends on the number of factors. They range from heat generation and distribution to house substations and customer installations and they are interrelated. Low temperature regime gives an opportunity for a competitive cogeneration. Possibilities to lower the temperature regime in the district heating system Prishtina were considered. Over-dimensioning of the existing utilities and selection of a more reasonable design ambient temperature were taken into account by determining the lower temperature regime. Energy prices and other economical data were selected for a techno-economic analysis.

2. HEAT CONSUMPTION 2.1 REGULATION OVERVIEW The first measures concerning heat conservation in the buildings in ex-Yugoslavia were issued in 1968. The »Proposal for maximal thermal transmittance« predicted three climate zones for the state. In accordance with the selected climate zone the maximal allowable thermal transmittance k (W/m2K) was limited. It was defined for the outside and indoor walls and outside ceiling. The city of Prishtina was classified in the third zone (III). The maximal allowable thermal transmittance was k = 1,37 W/m2K (Official Gazzette SFRJ 45/67). In the year 1970, the maximal allowable thermal transmittance coefficient was reduced down to k = 1,28 W/m2K (Official Gazzette SFRJ 35/70). A greater improvement concerning the heat conservation in buildings was achieved by the JUS.U.J5.600 code which was published in 1980. It was not only limited to the maximum allowable thermal transmittance but it took into consideration also other influences as minimal thermal stability of civil structures and vapor diffusion through the building outside walls. The maximal allowed thermal transmittance was significantly decreased. For the Prishtina (third climate zone (III)) it was limited to k = 0,83 W/m2K which represented a reduction of about one third with respect to the regulation of 1970. Calculation methods for thermal heat transfer coefficient, vapor diffusion and thermal stability of the civil structures were defined in the JUS.U.J5.510, 520 and 530 codes, also published in 1980. In 1984, a new regulation »Rules for rational use of energy (Official Gazzette SRS 31/84« was released in Slovenia due the reduction of the maximal allowable heat losses in Europe. The regulation was included in the JUS.U.J5.600 code which was released in Yugoslavia in 1987. In the same year, the JUS.U.J5.510 code was amended.

efficient use of energy in buildings (Official Gazzette RS 42/02)« passed in 2002 adopting the EU legislation. The existing EU legislation concerning heat losses in buildings is as follows: [2]

• Directive on construction products (89/106/EEC) • Directive SAVE (93/76/EEC) • code EN 832

The Directive SAVE (93/76/EEC) restricts heat losses, requires energy reviews and introduces energy identity cards for buildings. The calculation method in EN832 gives the opportunity to compare the energy consumption indexes of the buildings. The energy consumption index is also restricted. The energy consumption index is the output of the calculation method given in EN 832. It indicates the energy consumption of the building in one year (kWh/m2a or kWh/m3a). The EU legislation in force reduces the energy consumption for at least 30% regarding previous regulations in Yugoslavia. The new legislation concerning energy performance of the buildings (Directive on Energy Performance of Buildings (2002/91/EC)) [3] is in ratification in EU. It is expected that the new legislation will be accepted in all EU members up to 2006. The new directive introduces additional measurements for reduction of the energy consumption concerning space and water heating, air conditioning and lighting. A 20% reduction of the energy consumption is expected. The directive defines:

• calculation methodology for the overall energy consumption of the buildings • minimal requirements for the heat losses of the new buildings • minimal requirements for the heat losses of the existing reconstructed buildings

2.2 INPUT DATA 2.2.1 Introduction Heat consumption in buildings depends on the quality of civil construction, resident habits and measurement method. Quality of thermal insulation, room temperature and tariff system are the most important influences. The comparison of heat consumption in different buildings is made on the basis of the following:

• climate conditions • building configuration • purpose of the building • construction year

Specific heat load and heat consumption (W/m2, kWh/m2 etc.) are used as a main value for indication of the heat consumption in buildings. 2.2.2 Climate conditions

Prishtina and Ljubljana are comparable in the view of climate zones and design temperatures. The climate zone and the design temperature represent the main input data for heat consumption and required heat load determination. Table 3: Yugoslavian Code JUS.U.J5.600 (80/87)

* Local climate conditions are defined with degree-days. They are calculated in form of a difference between room and outside temperature multiplied by the number of days. The value “degree-days” is calculated for the heating season. The foreseen room temperature is 20°C and the maximal outside temperature 12°C.

The above table shows that Prishtina and Ljubljana are comparable as regards climate conditions. Outside design temperature for Ljubljana was increased in the new SLO legislation in 2002 (adopted EU legislation) from -18°C to -13°C. In accordance with the design temperature in Ljubljana (-13°C) we anticipate that the design temperature of -13°C for Prishtina is an acceptable value.

The comparison of the daily variation heat load curve between Prishtina and Ljubljana shows that the range of variation is higher in Prishtina than in Ljubljana. A characteristic day with the highest variation is presented for Ljubljana. A higher variation in Prishtina may be caused by the interrupted operation and manual recording. A higher variation increases higher optimal capacity of the heat storage tank. In order to avoid any selection of a too big heat storage tank we presume that the daily variation heat load curve of Ljubljana is more accurate for optimization.

2.2.3 Building configuration factor There are no average values known as regards heat consumption in the buildings. The specific heat consumption depends on the category of the building and its configuration factor (e. g. block of flats, terraced houses, single house). Buildings with the same floor area and the same heat insulation quality of outside walls have different heat losses with regard to the building configuration factor. The building configuration factor (f0) is defined as a division between building volume and building outside boundary. The buildings with higher configuration factor have higher heat consumption due to the more inappropriate building configuration concerning heat losses.

The buildings can be classified in the main categories with an average configuration factor as follows [2]:

• Apartments building: block of flats (g+3 floors) Average configuration factor f0 = 0,33

• Row of houses: terraced houses Average configuration factor f0 = 0,65

• Detached house: single house Average configuration factor f0 = 0,92

Picture 4: Maximal allowed heat consumption for heating in relation to configuration factor f0

2.2.4 Construction year

The construction year represents an important data due to the regulation concerning maximum allowable heat losses in the past. It should be pointed out that every new regulation has reduced the allowable heat losses for approximately 30% with relation to the previous regulation. In accordance with the regulation development it is helpful to divide buildings into three categories as follows:

• buildings constructed up to 1984 (1987) • buildings constructed between1984 (1987) and 2002 • new buildings

The annual energy consumption in the new buildings in the EU members is limited in accordance with the EU legislation. The energy consumption of the building is indicated as specific energy consumption (kWh/m2a or kWh/m3a). [5] There are different indicators related to the type of energy consumption (space heating, domestic water heating, electricity, lighting etc.).

The surveys in Ljubljana indicate that the annual heat consumption in the apartment buildings (block of flats) move in the range from -10% to +10% related to the regulation in force for the buildings construction year. Maximal inaccuracy was found for the period after 1984 (1987). A possible reason for such deviation lies in the fact that buildings in early 80’s were not designed in accordance with the new regulation.

TASK 1 2-17

In more than 1,000 apartments the heat load for domestic water heating amounts to 1,4kW/apartment. [15] 2.3.3 Heat losses in the network The level of the heat losses depends on the type of insulation and its thermal conductivity, thickness and application method of insulation. Distribution temperatures and extensive surface area of any heat distribution may justify efficient insulation. Quality and cost of materials are of importance which dictates their application. The existing network is in bad condition. Not only heat losses but also leakages are high. . Consequently, the present heat losses can not be used for a long term prediction. To exemplify: reasonably acceptable yardsticks tests under West European and British conditions indicate that for mean supply/return water at 80°C and 5°C soil temperature, an average heat loss figure of 40 W/m length of pipe, could be realistic as a guide. This figure refers to an average for a range of pipe sizes constituting a typical system and use of factory pre-fabricated insulated pipe work. For a competently installed system an overall winter heat loss of network may be estimated at 5-7% of total heat distributed. [12] Very relevant to overall thermal loss from mains is the network heat density of particular area. High concentration of heating loads with correspondingly short runs of underground piping would ensure a much lower loss of heat than a scattered, possibly badly planned estate. This is the European experience indicating 9% loss for distribution density of 250 W/m2 and 3% for a heat density of 1000 W/m2. [12] An overview of the annual reports of district heating companies in different European countries indicates that the overall heat loss is in the range from 6% to 14% with the average value of 10%. [13] The overall heat loss of 10% is selected as a conservative value for the Prishtina district heating network.

2.4 ENERGY CONSERVATION POTENTIALS Energy saving in the building sector is focused on improvements in the building envelope, heating systems, electrical appliances, and advice on efficient energy utilisation. A survey concerning energy conservation potential for the town of Prishtina has not been made. Due to the lack of data we present data valid for Slovenia [14]. They can be used as a case study. Total energy saving potential resulting from the building envelope and heating measures ranges from 30% to 65% in single family houses depending on the age of the building, and between 14% and 73% in the apartment blocks and commercial, public and industrial buildings, again depending upon their age. The potential is higher in buildings constructed before 1980 and more particularly before 1966. Assuming that only measures provoking a payback period of less than 10 years are attractive, the cost effective potential is reduced. The cost effective potential in single family houses is so reduced to 36%, in residential apartments to 27% and in commercial, public and industrial buildings to 34%. The most effective benefits are gained from the following areas:

• measures related to building insulation (loft and roof insulation and wall insulation) • measures related to the heating system (control systems and thermostatic radiator

valves) • reduction of air infiltration level (draught proofing) and improved double glazing

Institutional measures can also have a market effect on the energy conservation. For example the introduction of a formalised energy management system, according to Western European experience, gives cost effective savings of the order of 5-10%. In addition, institutional measures may be used to focus attention on:

• inefficient heating systems • inappropriate thermal performance of the building envelope • rational energy behaviour

The reduction level of the heat losses in the existing buildings with some measurements is presented in the following table: [6]

3. TEMPERATURE REGIME 3.1 EXISTING SYSTEM IN PRISHTINA The existing district heating system in Prishtina covers the main portion of the existing apartment buildings in the city. It is supplied from the boiler house with two heavy fuel oil fired boilers. The domestic water heating is not connected to the district heating system. The design data for the apartment space heating and district heating system are as follows:

• ambient design temperature -18°C • room temperature 20°C • space heating (SH) 90/70°C • district heating system in Prishtina (DHP) 140/80°C

The heat load at the output from the boiler house has not been measured and recorded. Only the supply/return temperatures are manually recorded. Due to the bad condition of the network the supply temperature is limited to 100°C. The capacity of the district heating system is due to the limitation of the supply temperature insufficient at the low ambient temperatures. The calculated and measured temperatures are presented in the following diagram:

The comparison of the calculated values and the measured ones shows that in case of ambient temperature ranging down to 0°C the supply temperatures of the district heating system in Prishtina (DHP) are higher than required.. At lower outside temperatures they are lower than the calculated values. In case of ambient temperatures ranging down to -5°C the return temperatures of the district heating system are higher than the calculated values.. There is also a high deviation of the measured values due to manual recording. The limited supply temperature causes lower supply temperatures than calculated at the ambient temperatures below 0°C. The return temperatures of the district system are lower than calculated at the ambient temperatures below -5°C. The capacity of the district heating system is insufficient due to the limited supply temperature. The supply temperatures are lower and return temperatures are higher than calculated in the range of ambient temperatures from 0°C to -5°C. We can conclude that the existing utilities are over dimensioned.

3.2 UTILISING EXISTING RESERVES The economic operation of the district heating system depends on the number of factors. They range from heat generation and distribution to house substations and customer installations and they are interrelated. A low temperature regime gives an opportunity for a competitive cogeneration. The existing maximum supply temperatures in the district heating systems in Europe are in the range from 150°C to 90°C. The range between 120°C and 130°C is the most frequent one with tendency to even lower values through to low temperature systems. When converting the existing heating facilities, usually dimensioned for the 90/70°C temperature regime, to district heating service, it is important to consider which heating-unit reserves are available. There have not been made any analyses concerning dimensioning of the existing heating units in Prishtina. The studies from the other cities were used for estimation of the existing utilizing reserves. Several analyses of heating units dimensioning in the existing buildings have revealed mean over dimensioning factor of 1.3 to 1.6 in comparison to calculating the connected heat load [16]. It has been established that as a rule over 85% of the heating units have been over dimensioned. There are considerable reserves available in radiators. However, a survey of individual buildings has also demonstrated that heating units are in use on individual basis that have been under dimensioned up to 50%. In such cases, careful consideration and detailed reflection of needed measures (replacement of radiators and of parameters for house installations) is indispensable. Analysis of radiator dimensioning for 40 buildings with 1,883 heating units in Germany:

Another example of successful lowering the network temperature regime is Esag District Heating system in Dresden [17]. The system was originally designed for the temperature regime of 145/80°C and supplies the heat to 503 customers. They established a test program with lowering the supply temperature for 20°C. They only received complaints from customers which use heat for generating low pressure steam. Underheating due to too small dimensioned heating surfaces was not established. We have recalculated the temperature regime in Prishtina with a selected 10% over dimensioning of the existing utilities. The results are presented in the following diagram:

There is a statement in the conceptual design for the district heating system of Prishtina being supplied from the Kosovo A Thermal Power Plant [18] that the return temperature has never reached the temperature of 65°C. In accordance with the data recorded the temperature regime of 110°C/65°C was selected. Ljubljana and Prishtina are comparable in view of climate data. The design temperature in Ljubljana has been increased from -18°C to -13°C. If we assume the design temperature of -13°C for Prishtina and predict a 10% over-dimensioning of the existing heating units in buildings, the maximal return temperature in the district heating system is 65°C. The actual design temperature regime is then 117/65°C and it is comparable with the values selected in [18].

3.3 SELECTED TEMPERATURE REGIME The highest temperature regime in the Prishtina district heating system is defined in accordance with the lowest calculated ambient temperature and the required room temperature. The lowest temperature regime is defined by the requirements for domestic water heating. The domestic water heating is normally adjusted to 45°C. The domestic hot water in the storage tank should be heated to 60°C once per day to decrease legionella growth [19]. The temperature regime in the Prishtina district heating system is selected on the basis of the following conclusions:

• The existing design temperature -18°C is replaced with -13°C (comparison between Ljubljana and Prishtina)

• The existing utilities are over dimensioned for at least 10% (several investigations of the similar systems)

• Heating of domestic water is foreseen

The selected temperature regime is as follows:

• design temperature -13°C • temperature regime in the Prishtina district heating system 117/65°C • minimal supply temperature 70°C

The selected temperature difference between the supply and the return temperatures in the Prishtina district heating system is 52°C and a sliding operation is predicted. The supply line from the TPP Kosovo B to the heating station in Prishtina is specified as the district heating system of Kosovo (DHK). The foreseen optimal temperature difference in the Kosovo district heating system can be estimated in accordance with [20]. A sliding operation is foreseen. The approximate distance between the TPP Kosovo B and the heating station in Prishtina is 10 km and a maximal heat load in the range from 100 MW to 500 MW is estimated. The estimated optimal temperature difference in the Kosovo district heating system is 50°C. The selected temperature difference in the Prishtina district heating system is approximately the same as the estimated temperature difference in the Kosovo district heating system. The selected temperature difference in the Prishtina district heating system is appropriate for the optimal selection of the temperature difference in the Kosovo district heating system.

The predicted short term future prices are presented in the following table:

4.1.1.3 Fuel oil prices The average light fuel oil price on the EU market (25 Member States) was 529,07 EUR/1000l in November 2004, VAT included. The average VAT is around 20% for 25 Member States. [21] The light fuel oil price without VAT is as follows:

– 1000l of light fuel oil = 423,26 Euro (without VAT) = 43.21 Euro/MWh

The average heavy fuel price is as follows:

– 1ton of heavy fuel oil (sulphur<1) = 200,13 Euro (without VAT) = 17,56 Euro/MWh

4.1.2 Selected prices The selected prices are as follows:

• coal 1.05 EUR/GJ 3.78 EUR/MWh

• marginal electrical generation cost 18 EUR/MWh • total electrical generation cost 30 EUR/MWh • light fuel oil 343.2 EUR/1000 l without VAT and

customs duty 434.15 EUR/1000 l

44.33 EUR/MWh • heavy fuel oil (sulphur >1%) 220.47 EUR/tonne without VAT and

customs duty 278.89 EUR/tonne

24.49 EUR/MWh For ecological reasons (too high sulphur content) the use of heavy fuel oil is not acceptable in future. Heavy fuel oil with sulphur content less than 1% can be used in the existing large combustion units in accordance with the EU legislation. In the long term optimisation of the district heating system light fuel oil was selected as a peak load fuel. For the option “doing nothing” the existing heavy fuel oil was selected.

4.3 ECONOMICAL DATA Cost of heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B The cost of the heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B will be calculated as the total cost of the equivalent electrical production. Cost of electrical consumption for circulating pumps The total electrical production price will be used for the cost estimation of circulating pumps electrical consumption. Cost of heat produced by peak load boilers Light fuel oil price serves as a basis for cost estimation of the heat generated by peak load boilers. The reserve boilers are foreseen also as peak load units. Benefits from the heat storage tank A part of the daily heat production is moved from the daily hours to the nighttime. Most of the day the existing units operate at full load which is reached in accordance with the current condition of the unit. Operation with constant full load is required due to the lack of electricity in the country. The load is reduced for 7 hours only during the night. It is reduced for approximately 36 MWe. The benefit of the heat storage is increasing the electricity production during the day. The maximal heat load for heat supply to the heat storage tank is defined in accordance with the reduced load during the night. Reduction of the electricity production due to heating should not be greater than 100 MWe during the heat supply to the heat storage tank. Due to the lack of electricity it is not possible to define the electricity market price. Economic estimation of the heat storage tank is as follows:

• additional costs o investment of the heat storage tank o marginal generation cost for additional electricity production

• additional income o selling of the additionally produced electricity at the total generation cost

Interest rate

• interest rate 12% [23]

Considered life time • period of depreciation 25 years

1. INTRODUCTION The existing district heating system in Prishtina is supplied by two heavy fuel oil boilers. The alternative option is base load heat supply from the Kosovo B Thermal Power Plant. In this case the existing heavy fuel oil boilers would be used as peak and reserve boilers. The main purpose of this task is to confirm that the heat supply from the Kosovo B Thermal Power Plant could be a better option. Both options (without and with connection to the TPP Kosovo B) were evaluated. The existing floor area which is heated by the existing district heating system and the existing buildings which are foreseen for connection were taken as a conservative approach. The total heat consumption was defined in accordance with the specific heat consumption selected in TASK 1. The temperature regime selected in TASK 1 was used for district heating system in Prishtina. The temperature difference in the pipeline from the TPP Kosovo B to the Prishtina heating station was defined in accordance with the data published [1]. The selected temperature difference is 50°C. A new pipeline is foreseen for the district heating system from the TPP Kosovo B to the heating station in Prishtina. The pre-insulated pipes are foreseen due to the required underground installation by the Prishtina municipality. A new heating station is foreseen at the TPP Kosovo B. The heating station will consist of a shell tube heat exchanger, circulating pumps and a static pressure control system. The steam will be extracted from the exhaust of the intermediate pressure stem turbine. The estimated length of the pipeline from the TPP Kosovo B to the heating station in Prishtina is approximately 2 x 10500 m. The heating station in Prishtina shall be erected in the existing building which was intended for the same purpose in the previous project [2]. A plate heat exchanger and circulating pumps shall be installed.

2. LEAST COST ANALYSIS 2.1 EXISTING DISTRIC HEATING SYSTEM IN PRISHTINA There is an existing district heating system already erected in Prishtina.. The main boiler plant in the southern end of the city is the main heat source in the network and includes all facilities for operation of the district heating system. Heat is produced by two heavy fuel oil boilers in the main boiler house. The heavy fuel oil is stored in four ground tanks with 1800 m3 of overall capacity. Total capacitiy of the boilers is 2 x 58 MW. An uninterrupted night time operation with sufficient heat supply is foreseen.

2.2 BASE HEAT SUPPLY FROM TPP KOSOVO B The base load heating from the TPP Kosovo B is an alternative option. The estimated base heat load for district heating system in the city of Prishtina supplied from the Kosovo B Thermal Power Plant is 58 MW. This is approximately 70% of the maximal heat load in the heating season. In this case, the heavy fuel oil boilers shall be used as peak load and reserve boilers. The base heat load supply from the Kosovo B Thermal Power Plant will cover the entire heat consumption down to the ambient temperature of – 3°C.

2.3 EVALUATION For evaluation the net present value method was used.. Two main options were analyzed:

• Option A: option with the existing heating • Option B: option with base load heating from the TPP Kosovo B

The Option A represents the existing heating system with two heavy fuel oil boilers in Prishtina. For ecological reasons light fuel oil is also considered as an alternative fuel in the option A. The Option B represents base heat load supply from the TPP Kosovo B. In this option the existing heavy fuel oil boilers will be used as peak load and reserve boilers. Heavy fuel oil and light fuel oil are considered as fuels for peak load boilers. The main data for the analysis:

• total electrical generation cost 30 EUR/MWh • heavy fuel oil price 24,49 EUR/MWh • light fuel oil price 44,33 EUR/MWh • interest rate 12 % • duration of the heating season 195 days • period of depreciation 25 years

The costs are presented in the following diagram and table:

3. CONCLUSION The option with the existing heat supply by two heavy fuel oil boilers and the option with base load heating from the TPP Kosovo B were evaluated. The existing heating system (base option) requires low investment even in case with replacement or extension of the existing boilers. The existing boilers are fired with heavy fuel oil. The option with fuel oil was also considered out of ecological reasons. The connection of the existing district heating system to the TPP Kosovo B (alternative option) requires high investment. In spite of high installation costs the operating costs are quite low in comparison with the base option. The net present value of the alternative option is significantly lower than in the base option. The option with base load heating from the TPP Kosovo B is more economical than the existing heating system. The result confirms that the connection to the TPP Kosovo B is an optimal solution. It is made in accordance with the European practice. There are a lot of installations with similar distances between consumers and heat production units. The predicted growth of the heat consumption will increase the benefits of the selected option.

1. INTRODUCTION Technical documentation for the district heating of the city of Prishtina from the Kosovo A Thermal Power Plant was made in 1993. The design data for the district heating system running from the Kosovo A Thermal Power Plant to the heating station in Prishtina were as follows:

• nominal heat load 85 MW • temperature regime 160°C/70°C

The anticipated main units for the district heating system were as follows:

• heating station at the TPP Kosovo A • pipeline from the TPP Kosovo A to the heating station in Prishtina • heating station in Prishtina

The installation started after the documentation was completed and stopped due to the crisis in the Kosovo region. The current status of the installed equipment is as follows:

unit current status of the equipment heating station at the TPP Kosovo A installation has not started pipeline from the TPP Kosovo A to the heating station in Prishtina

most of foundations for supports are finished, most of the pipeline is temporary welded

heating station in Prishtina main civil structures are erected The installed equipment hasn’t been protected against weather conditions after the project was stopped.

2. CURRENT STATUS OF THE EQUIPMENT 2.1 PIPELINE FROM THE TPP KOSOVO A TO PRISHTINA The main data of the pipeline are as follows:

• outside diameter 457.2 mm • wall thickness 6.3 mm • material St 37.0 (�.0361)

Total length of the pipeline is 2 x 7800 m. The majority of the required pipes and elbows are found on the site. Most of the pipes and elbows are temporary welded and layed on concrete foundations. Front pipes are not closed with caps for storage. Only straight pipes were corrosion protected. The inner surface of the pipes is corroded in spite of the elbows where the inner and the outer surfaces are corroded. The supports are not located on the site. Most of the concrete foundations and ducts without covers and drying systems are installed. The quality assurance documentation is not available. The current status of the pipeline is presented on the pictures as follows:

Prior to the continuation of the installation the following works shall be carried out: The above ground installation

• demolition of the existing pipes and elbows • manual internal cleaning of the pipes and elbows • cleaning of the pipes and elbows with shot blasting and corrosion protection • metallurgical examination of the pipes and elbows as a substitution for the missing

quality assurance documentation • repair of the damaged concrete foundations • leveling of the foundations which are not on the appropriate level • repair of the damaged concrete ducts • installation of the drying system in the ducts

The underground installation (pre-insulated pipes)

• demolition of the existing pipes and elbows • manual internal cleaning of the pipes and elbows • cleaning of the pipes and elbows with shot blasting and corrosion protection • metallurgical examination of the pipes and elbows as a substitution for the missing

quality assurance documentation • pre-insulated pipes covering with insulation in the factory

Page 98: CHP Feasibility Study

TASK 3 2-3

File: Task3-par2-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

In the design phase a stress calculation was made in accordance with the JUS.M.E2.038 code. The main data for the calculation were as follows:

• design temperature 160°C • design pressure 22 bar g • material St 37.0 (�.0361) • type welded • safety factor 1.5 • welding factor 0.8 (without inspection certificate in accordance with

JUS.C.B5.026) • thickness tolerance -0.35 mm • additional thickness

due to corrosion 1 mm • wall thickness 6.3 mm

The maximal allowable pressure should be reduced down to 18 bar due to high corrosion. Regarding the original calculation an additional reduction of the wall thickness for 1 mm is foreseen It should be pointed out that the JUS.M.E2.038 code does not consider the influence of the inspection certificate on the safety factor. This influence affects only the welding factor. In accordance with the JUS.M.B5.026 code delivery with or without the inspection certificate depends on the agreement between the purchaser and the supplier. The DIN 2413 code increases the safety factor from 1.5 to 1.7 in case of a delivery without the inspection certificate. The welding factor is 0.85. If we assume the increased value of the safety factor, the maximal allowable pressure is reduced to 16 bar. The foreseen pressure drop in the pipeline from the TPP Kosovo B to the heating station in Prishtina is approximately 11 bar. The maximal pressure in the pipeline is as follows:

pressure drop 11 bar elevation difference 74 m 7.4 bar vapor pressure for 130°C 1.7 bar g safety range for pressure control 0.5 bar

required maximal pressure 20.6 bar The required maximal pressure is similar as the original design pressure. The pressure drop in the pipeline is increased due to the extension of the line and the increased roughness. On the other side, the maximal temperature is reduced in order to achieve a lower maximal pressure required. In spite of the temperature reduction the required pressure is still higher than the allowable pressure of the current pipeline. The operation with the existing pipes is possible only with a high risk. Due to the temperature reduction the line capacity is sufficient only for the existing heat consumption of the district heating system in Prishtina.

Page 99: CHP Feasibility Study

TASK 3 2-4

File: Task3-par2-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

In case with the existing pipes the operating costs increase as well due to a higher roughness. The increased pressure drop is calculated as follows:

• case with new pipes • length 21 km • roughness 0.2 mm

• case with the existing pipes � existing pipes

• length 15.6 km • roughness 1.5 mm

� new pipes • length 5.4 km • roughness 0.2 mm

The increased pressure drop in the case with the existing pipes is approximately 6 bar. The increased operating costs are calculated as follows:

• marginal electricity price 22 EUR/MWh • interest rate 12% • duration of the heating season 195 days • considered years 25

The increased operating costs are approximately 200,000 EUR. The estimated price of the new pipes and elbows for the same quantity as it is installed is approximately 2.5 mio EUR. The municipality of Prishtina has additional requirements concerning installation of the pipeline:

• The pipeline should be installed underground. • The route foreseen is predicted for the reconstruction of the motor way running from

Prishtina to Mitrovica In order to meet the requirement regarding the underground installation the pre-insulated pipes are foreseen. Generally, it is possible to send the existing pipes and elbows in the factory to be covered by insulation. We can make a conservative conclusion that due to the differences in dimensions between the supplied elbows and pre-insulated elbows.only pipes can be used The estimated price of the new pipes in the same quantity as supplied amounts to approximately 2.2 mio EUR. The estimated steel pipes share in the total price of the pre-insulated pipes is approximately 60%. On the other hand, the existing pipes use could cause a highly risky operation and the capacity of the existing pipeline would be sufficient only for the existing heat consumption. It is not a good engineering practice to design a district heating system with high risk operation. Consequently, the existing pipes are not foreseen for the district heating system treated in the feasibility study.

2.2 HEATING STATION IN PRISHTINA The heating station is made from pre-fabricated concrete elements. There are only foundations, external walls and roofing installed. The building is not protected against weather conditions. The openings for windows and doors are not covered and a temporary roof is not installed, either. The current status of the heating station is presented on the pictures as follows:

The design documentation covering the existing structure has foreseen a monolith reinforced concrete skeleton type of structure with a steel roof. Actually, the structure is of a pre-fabricated RC type composed of main columns, main roof supports, longitudinal façade connections and T-type roof beams. The foundations are of reinforced concrete, block type, interconnected by strip supports along the rim of the structure, supporting the façade pre-fabricated panels. Relevant technical documentation shall be obtained for the existing structure confirming that the structure serves for the anticipated purpose. This shall represent a starting point of the reconstruction. The construction should be completed in accordance with the revised technical documentation. In order to avoid any additional damage on the building temporary protection (at least roof) is suggested prior to final construction. Using of the existing building for a heating station is a preferred option.

3. CONCLUSION The supplied equipment consists of a pipeline with total length of approximately 15.6 km and the main civil structure for the heating station in Prishtina. The supplied pipeline was foreseen for an aboveground installation. There are no inspection certificates for the pipeline and it is corroded due to an inappropriate preservation. Prior to any continuation of the installation the existing pipeline should be dismantled, cleaned and sent to factory for covering with insulation. It should be installed underground. On the other hand, the existing pipeline use could cause operation with high risk and the dimension of the pipeline is sufficient only for the existing heat consumption. In order to assure a reliable operation and an increased heat consumption the use of the existing pipeline is not recommended in the feasibility study. The existing heating station in Prishtina is in a good condition and appropriate for the designed purpose. It is foreseen that the existing civil structure will be completed in accordance with the revised technical documentation. It is suggested to protect the existing civil structure against any future damage prior to final construction.

2. OPTIMIZATION 2.1 INTRODUCTION The optimization of the heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B was divided into three phases. An optimal heat supply was selected in the first phase and a thermal heat storage tank was considered in the second phase. In the third phase the rest of optimizations were done. The optimal heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B was defined in five main steps:

• selection of optimal velocity in the pipeline • selection of connection to the steam turbine • calculation of heat supply for different scenarios and options • calculation of net present values for different scenarios and options • selection of optimal design

Additional electrical production in the TPP Kosovo B was considered by heat storage installation. The following optimizations were performed in the third phase:

• static pressure system • compensation of the main pipeline • thermal insulation thickness

In accordance with the above diagrams the optimal velocity is around 2 m/s. The maximal pressure in the pipeline depends on the pressure drop. Higher pressure drop requires higher maximal pressure in the pipeline. A standard wall thickness was included in the calculation. The wall thickness of the pipeline and the nominal pressure of the equipment should be increased in case of the high pressure drop. The optimal velocity of 1.8 m/s is selected in accordance with the above diagrams in order to reduce the maximal pressure in the pipeline. 2.2.2 Connection to the steam turbine There are two coal fired units with 2 x 339 MW nominal power. The existing steam turbines are not designed for the connection to the district heating system. There exist two appropriate locations for extraction of the steam required for the heating station:

• inlet of the superheated steam into IP steam turbine • exhaust from the IP steam turbine

Regarding the appropriate locations for extraction of the steam there are two main possible designs of the heating station:

• design with one stage heater • design with two stage heaters

The design with one stage heater requires installation of a throttle valve on the existing steam pipeline between the IP and the LP steam turbine. The steam for the heating station is extracted upstream of the throttle valve. The required steam pressure in the heater is achieved by throttling of the valve. In the design with two stage heaters the installation of the throttle valve on the steam pipeline between the IP and the LP steam turbine is not required. The first stage heater is connected to the non-regulating exhaust from the IP turbine and the second stage heater is supplied by the superheated steam via a temperature control valve. Both designs are presented in the following flow diagrams:

The difference between both designs is presented with a value which indicates the reduction of the electricity production with relation to the heat load and outlet temperature from the heating station. The reduction of the electricity production is calculated for different heat loads and outlet temperatures from the heating station. The nominal load of the coal fired unit is 90% of the design load. The reduced electricity production for both options is shown in the following diagram:

In accordance with the above diagram we can conclude that there is no significant difference between both options except by the highest heating load. The option with a two stage heater is not appropriate for the highest load. The option with a one stage heater is selected owing to its simplified design.

2.2.3 Optimal heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B 2.2.3.1 Overview Several options for each scenario were considered by selection of the optimal heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B. The options could be divided into three main groups:

• Options with installation of the main pipeline only at the beginning of the operation • Options with installation of the main pipeline in two phases:

� Installation of the supply and return line at the beginning of the operation

� Installation of the third line after the heat consumption increases up to the appropriate level. The cross area of the third line is equivalent to the cross area of both existing lines and the existing supply line becomes a return line.

• Option with the existing pipes. The existing pipes shall be demolished, cleaned and pre-insulated before installation. After the heat consumption increases up to the appropriate level, the third line will be installed.

The options which were considered are as follows: option description DN450 Supply and return pipeline with nominal diameter DN 450 are installed

at the beginning of the operation DN500 Similar as by option DN450 DN600 Similar as by option DN450 DN700 Similar as by option DN450 2 x DN350 Supply and return pipeline with nominal diameter DN350 are installed at

the beginning of the operation. The third line will be installed in the second phase

2 x DN400 Similar as by option 2 x DN350 2 x DN450 Similar as by option 2 x DN350 2 x DN450-exisitng The existing pipes DN450 are demolished, cleaned, pre-insulated and

installed at the beginning of the operation. The third pipeline will be installed in the second phase.

2 x DN500 Similar as by option 2 x DN350 2 x DN600 Similar as by option 2 x DN350 In options where the installation of the main pipeline is foreseen in two phases, the installation of the heating stations is foreseen in two phases as well.

TASK 4 2-8

File: Task4-par2-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

The main difference between using the new pipes and the existing ones is in the maximal allowable temperature. Static pressure is defined in accordance with the maximal temperature. Maximal pressure in the pipeline depends on the static pressure and the pressure drop in the pipeline. The maximal allowable pressure in the existing pipes is reduced due to a high corrosion. The maximal allowable temperature in the new pipes is limited up to 140°C and in the existing pipes up to 120°C due to the reduction of the maximal allowable pressure. The main input data for the optimization are as follows: Variable investment costs

• main pipeline � DN300 3.6 mio EUR � DN500 7.2 mio EUR � DN700 10.9 mio EUR � DN1000 10.0 mio EUR � saving by using the existing pipes 1 mio EUR � installation cost 30%

• heating station at the TPP Kosovo B 7.1 EUR/kW • heaters in the heating station in Prishtina 120 EUR/kW °C • pumping station 810 EUR/kW • customs duty 10%

Operating costs • reduction of the electricity production in the TPP Kosovo B electricity price • electricity consumption for circulating pumps electricity price • light fuel oil consumption for peak load boiler 44.33 EUR/MWh • maintenance costs

� pipeline 1% � equipment 2%

• electricity price 30 EUR/MWh Other data

• interest rate 12% • period of depreciation 25 years

The optimization is presented in the following flowchart:

2.2.3.5 Conclusion The optimal diameters of the main line from the TPP Kosovo B to the heating station in Prishtina are as follows: scenario optimal option low 2 x DN400 medium 2xDN450 high 2xDN500 The 2xDN450option is selected as a solution which is the most suitable for all scenarios. The investment is foreseen in two phases. Two main pipelines (supply and return) are foreseen in the first phase. The third line will be installed in the second phase. The third line will have the function of the supply line and the pipelines installed in the first phase will have the function of the return lines. The selected nominal diameters are as follows: installation phase function nominal diameter 1 supply line DN450 return line DN450 2 supply line DN700 return line 2 x DN450 installed in the 1st

2.3 HEAT STORAGE TANK The average load of both coal fired units B1 and B2 during heating season is approximately 90%. The reduction of the load is only about 7 hours during the night. The base load heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B will reduce the electricity production due to the high average load of the power plant during heating season. The heat storage tank installation gives the opportunity to move a part of the daily heat production in the night and to increase the electricity production. Possible locations for the heat storage tank are in the TPP Kosovo B heating station or in the heating station in Prishtina. The location of the heat storage tank in the heating station in Prishtina would require a higher capacity of the transmission line and of both heating stations. A higher capacity of the transmission line can be achieved to some extent by a higher temperature difference. The location of the heat storage in the TPP Kosovo B requires only a higher capacity of the heating station in the TPP Kosovo B. The location in the TPP Kosovo B is not appropriate for direct connection of the tank to the main pipeline due to a high static pressure. An additional heater is foreseen to supply heat to the thermal storage tank. In the district heating system of the city of Prishtina the static pressure is lower and the tank could be directly connected to the grid. The existing main circulating pumps in the boiler house should be moved from the cold side to the hot side and an additional peak load heater is required due to the maximal temperature limitation to 98°C. in the heat storage tank. The capacity of the heat storage tank also depends on the inlet temperature. The temperature difference between the return temperature in the district heating system of Prishtina and in the return line from the heating station of Prishtina to the TPP Kosovo B is quite low. We can conclude that the return temperature does not have a bigger influence on the optimal location of the tank. Two companies are foreseen from the organization point of view. These are the TPP Kosovo B as a base heat load supplier and the Distribution Company as a heat supplier to the customers. The heat storage tank will serve the needs of the TPP Kosovo B. There is no steam source for sealing on the top of the storage tank in Prishtina. The location in the TPP Kosovo B is selected because it is closer to the heat source and the storage tank will serve the needs of the TPP Kosovo B.

The maximal allowable temperature in the heat storage tank is 98°C and the maximal supplied heat load to the heat storage tank is the same as the maximal heat load of the heating station (210 MW). At the highest load one coal fired power plant can supply heat to the district heating system and another one to the heat storage tank. The main data for the optimization of the heat storage tank are as follows:

• main pipeline 2xDN450 + DN700 • maximum temperature in the heat storage tank 98°C • total electricity price 30 EUR/MWh • marginal electricity price 18 EUR/MWh • specific investment price of the heat storage tank 163 EUR/MWh • specific investment for additional heating station 7.1 EUR/kW • customs duty 10% • interest rate 12% • period of depreciation 25 years

The results of the optimization are presented in the tables and diagrams below.

TASK 4 2-34

File: Task4-par2-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

The optimal volume of the heat storage tank is 10,000m3. The net present value is positive in all scenarios but the absolute value is quite low. The net present value is approximately 14% of the income from additional electricity sales. It should be noticed that there are also some additional fixed investment costs which were not included in the calculation and they reduce the net present value. The existing electricity supply in the Kosovo region is insufficient at the moment. On the other hand, the foreseen load of the coal fired power plant is 90% due to some technological problems. With increasing of the power plant quality and including of the heat thermal storage tank in the process the electricity production could be increased to a higher level. The electricity market in the Kosovo region is not an open one. The real production costs and selling price are inaccurate due to the present economic situation in Kosovo. We do not recommend the installation of the heat storage tank due to the low absolute level of the net present value, inaccurate production costs and electricity sales prices. The connection of the heat storage tank to the heating station is presented in the drawing DHSP-2X0021. The installation of the heat storage tank can be made any time after the heating station is put in operation.

2.4 STATIC PRESSURE SYSTEM The heating station in the TPP Kosovo B is selected for installation of the system maintaining static pressure in the main pipeline. This location is selected due to a sufficient existing capacity of the water treatment plant and large demineralised water tanks. Minimum pressure in the system is defined as follows:

• maximum temperature 150°C • additional margin for pressure control system 0.4 bar

The selected minimum pressure in the system is 5.2 bar abs. The heating station in the TPP Kosovo B lies on the lowest elevation. Between the TPP Kosovo B and Prishtina there is a hill with the highest elevation. Possible locations for static pressure maintenance are as follows: location maximal pressure

in the system bar abs

comments

suction side of the circulating pumps

20 the highest maximal pressure but lower operating costs of the static pressure system

outlet from the heaters 18.7 lower maximal pressure but higher operating costs of the static pressure system

Between the circulating pumps

18.7 lower maximal pressure and operating costs of the static pressure system but main pumps and booster pumps are required

The location between the circulating pumps is rejected due to a high number of the circulating pumps. Low increase of the maximal pressure by maintaining of the static pressure on the suction side may not increase investment costs. This location is selected for maintaining static pressure. The pressure distribution for all options is presented in the following diagrams.

2.5 THERMAL COMPENSATION The bonded pipe system can be installed according to different installation methods as follows:

• heat pre-stressing • expansion bends • E-muffs • high axial stress installation

The heat pre-stressing technique ensures that the pipe section is stress-free at a mean temperature, and that the temperature variations in the system are converted to stresses instead to movement. Pre-stressing can be performed by water or electricity. The installation method with expansion bends is a traditional method. The E-system is a simplified installation technique where temperature variations are absorbed as stresses in the steal pipe instead of being converted into expansion movements. The only expansion absorbing device is the E-muff which replaces expansion bends and anchors. The E-muff is a compensator which operates only once, after which it is fixed to absorb a movement corresponding to the pipe being stressless at mean temperature. The result is that the pipes are fixed in the ground without expansion movements. High axial stress installation is a very simple installation method by which very long pipe sections are installed without pre-stressing and without U, Z and L bends for expansion absorption. The main characteristics of the different installation techniques are as follows: technique advantages disadvantages heat pre-stressing

• fewer components • no movements in the pipes • even stress level

• the trench is open until heat pre-stressing has been made

expansion bends • low stress • the pipes can be backfilled

before heating

• additional U, Z and L bends with foam pads are required

E-muffs • fewer components • no movements in the pipes

even stress level the pipes can be backfilled before heating

• additional E-muffs are required

technique advantages disadvantages high axial stress • fewer components

• the pipes can be backfilled before heating

• no movements except at the end

• high stress levels • reinforcement at all branches • more stringent requirements

for pipes excavation • very large movements at the

bends • it is not possible to use

anchors • it is not possible to use

beveling or bends between 0 – 80°

The maximal allowable stress depends on the material. The following allowable stress is in the range from 150 N/mm2 up to 300 N/mm2. Higher allowable stresses cause additional restrictions by design and installation of the pipes. The maximal allowable stress up to 250 N/mm2 is selected. The covering of the pipe must be sufficient to obtain the necessary stability so that the pipes are not pushed up. Furthermore, the necessary covering ensures that no damages occur to the pipes due to the traffic loads. The traffic load of 16.7 kN/m2 and the wheel load of 50 kN are defined for town streets and roads with normal traffic (bridge class SLW 30). On the locations with higher traffic loads additional measurements are foreseen. The selected covering is as follows:

• DN450 600 mm • DN700 750 mm

The maximal calculated temperature is 140°C and the minimum soil temperature is 0°C. The geometry of the pipeline is simplified with the straight run pipeline. The main data concerning thermal compensation are as follows:

3. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION 3.1 INTRODUCTION Two heat sources are anticipated for heat supply to the district heating system in Prishtina. TPP Kosovo B is foreseen as a base load unit and fuel oil boilers in Prishtina are foreseen as peak load boilers. Three new units are foreseen:

• heating station in the TPP Kosovo B • main pipeline • heating station in Prishtina

The extension of the existing boiler house and network in Pristina is also anticipated but it is not included in the feasibility study. The project will be completed in two phases. Installation of the main 2 x DN450 pipeline and one heat exchanger in each heating station is foreseen in the first phase. The third DN700 pipe and the second heat exchanger in each heating station will be installed in the second phase. The capacity of the equipment does not depend on the scenario. The difference in heat loads between scenarios is covered by higher heat load and heat supply from the peak load boilers.

3.2 HEATING STATION IN THE TPP KOSOVO B 3.2.1 Mechanical part The heating station will be installed in the new building. The selected location for the heating station is near the north-west side of the main turbine building. The main parts of the heating station are as follows:

• connection to the steam turbines (unit B1 and B2) • hybrid heat exchangers • main circulating pumps • system for maintaining of the static pressure • other equipment

There are two identical units in the TPP Kosovo B with nominal load of 2 x 339 MW. The extraction of the steam for the heating station is anticipated from the IP steam turbine exhaust. For that purpose the installation of a throttle butterfly valve is foreseen on the connecting steam pipeline between the IP and LP steam turbines. There are two connecting pipelines (2 x DN1200) on each unit. The following equipment is foreseen at the connection for protection of the steam turbine:

• safety valve • check butterfly valve • check butterfly valve with pneumatic actuator

One DN 1000 steam pipeline from each unit is foreseen for supplying the steam to the heating station. The condensate is returned back into the feed water heating system. Two hybrid heat exchangers will be installed in the heating station. They will operate with only one unit or with both units (B1 and B2). In case when the steam is supplied from both units, each heat exchanger will be separately supplied from one unit. Three main circulating pumps are foreseen. Two of them will be equipped with a speed control. The required flow depends on the ambient temperature and return temperature. The return temperature from the heating station in Prishtina and the main circulating pumps located in Prishtina are also included in the control system. The static pressure maintenance system consists of:

• two expansion tanks • three pumps • two pressure control valves

The selected level of the static pressure is 12.6 bar abs. The selected volume of the expansion tanks is sufficient for normal operation. The existing demineralized tanks and a

3.2.2 Electrical part The existing 6,3kV general auxiliary switchgear will be used for electrical supply of the 6,3kV main circulating pumps. It shall be supplied from the 0BT - 48/28/28MVA power transformer. The switchgear consists of two equal sections (0BL and 0BM) and enables 100% redundancy of power supply for auxiliary consumers of the power plant. It is placed in R12 switch room on the platform +-0,00m. The main consumers will be three 500kW heating pumps. The same mode of supply will be used for the new consumers of the heating station. The existing two free-reserve cubicles located in sections 0BL (Nr.: 08) and 0BM (Nr.: 08) will be used for connection to the new switchgear. The connection between both switchgears will be realized with middle voltage cables (XHP-48 3x (1x150mm2)). New 6kV switchgear will be composed of 5 cubicles:

• cubicle for metering, • cubicle for power supply of the first pump with frequency converter, • cubicle for power supply of the second pump with frequency converter (reserve), • cubicle for power supply of the third pump without frequency converter and • cubicle for connection with 0BL and 0BM switchgears.

The new switchgear will be placed in the existing room R8 on the platform +6,00m. The type of connection between both switchgears will be the same as by the existing power supply for the existing pumps. This means that the switchgear will be connected with a single cable from two cubicles, 0BL (number: 08) and 0BM (number: 08). For that reason an additional cable connection between 0BL and OBM sections (between both cubicles 0BL-08 and 0BM-08) will be performed. One or two circulating pumps will be in operation. The third pump is a reserve pump. The number of the pumps in operation depends on the required heat load. In the scope of new consumers there will be also two pumps for static pressure (2x90kW), condensate pumps (4x90kW), other small consumers and an emergency 2,8kW static pump. The static pressure pumps and the condensate pumps will be supplied from the new low voltage switchgear. This switchgear will be supplied from the existing 0EU low voltage switchgear. The 2,8kW emergency pump will be supplied from the existing low voltage 0EU switchgear. This switchgear has two sources of supply. One is from the existing 1000kVA transformers

3.3 MAIN PIPELINE 3.3.1 Mechanical part The main pipeline will connect the heating station in the TPP Kosovo B with the heating station in Prishtina. The route of the pipeline runs along the Prishtina-Mitrovica main motorway. Two pre-insulated pipes, 2 x DN450 and DN700 are foreseen. The length of the pipeline is 10,500 m. The pipeline will be completed in two phases. The 2 x DN450 pipeline will be installed in the phase I. The installation of the third DN700pipeline is foreseen in the phase II. The third pipe will be a supply line and the 2 x DN450 pipelines will be the return lines after the completion of the phase II during the heating season. During summer, when the heat is needed only for domestic water heating, the DN700 pipeline will not be in operation. Only 2 x DN450 pipelines will be in operation in the summer period. Butterfly valves with an actuator are foreseen for switching the lines in operation with relation to the season. A surveillance system for identifying locations of any moisture in the pipe insulation is foreseen. The pipeline will be equipped also with a drain and a venting system.

3.4.2 Electrical part The existing 10kV switchgear, which is supplied from the remote PRIII-35/10kV switchyard, will be used for electrical supply of 10kV main circulating pumps in the heating station. The 10kV switchgear consists of only one section and it is placed in the main switch room of Termokos on the platform +-0,00m. Frequency converters for the existing pumps, complete main low voltage 0,4kV switchgear and cubicles with compensation batteries are located there as well.. There is not enough place for the new switchgear in the room with the existing middle voltage. It will be used for power supply of the three 500kW new main circulating pumps. Therefore it is more practical and from the operational aspect more reliable and safe to place the new part of the middle voltage switchgear in the separate auxiliary room near the main switch room. There are now 10kV and 0,4kV switchgears which are out of operation. This room is foreseen for installation of the new electrical equipment for the heating station and extension of the boiler house (not included in the scope of the feasibility study). The middle voltage cables (XHP-48 3x (1x150mm2)) will be used for connection of both switchgears. The new 10kV switchgear will consist of 5 cubicles:

• cubicle for metering, • cubicle for power supply of the first pump with frequency converter, • cubicle for power supply of the second pump with frequency converter (reserve), • cubicle for power supply of the third pump without frequency converter and • cubicle for connection to the existing switchgear.

One or two circulating pumps, or neither of them, will be in operation. The third pump is a reserve pump. The number of the pumps in operation depends on the heat consumption. There are also four low voltage 55kW auxiliary pumps in the scope of the new heating station. The pumps will be supplied from the new low voltage switchgear. This switchgear will be supplied from the existing low voltage switchgear and the existing 1600kVA reserve transformer T3. This switchgear will be placed in the same room as the existing one. Three auxiliary pumps will be equipped with frequency converters and only one will be connected directly to the switchgear and will operate with constant power.

The auxiliary pumps will operate simultaneously with the existing main circulating pumps in the boiler house. Three pumps will be in operation at the maximum heat consumption and one pump will be a reserve pump. 3.4.3 Civil part The heating station shall be located in the already existing but uncompleted structure. The top view dimensions of the structure are approximately 17.0 x 22.0 m, the height is 8.0 m above the terrain. The design documentation covering the existing structure has foreseen a monolith reinforced concrete skeleton type of structure with a steel roof. Actually the structure is of RC pre-fabricated type composed of main columns, main roof supports, longitudinal façade connections and T-type roof beams. The roof covering was not accomplished. The foundations are of reinforced concrete, block type, interconnected by strip supports along the rim of the structure, supporting the façade pre-fabricated panels. Relevant technical documentation shall be obtained for the existing structure confirming that the structure serves for the anticipated purpose. This shall represent a starting point of the reconstruction. Civil construction works shall encompass refurbishment of the structure and façade. The roof covering is made of double corrugated trapezoidal sheet with intermediate isolation. The ground floor, where the most technological equipment is installed, is made of a reinforced concrete slab. The main pumps are based on their own block foundations. Additional steel structures are foreseen for supporting of the main equipment and pipelines. New windows, doors and other finishing works are foreseen as well.

1. INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS Under UNMIK’s administration Kosovo has started the process of approaching to the EU standards. Therefore, in the beginning of this section, we are presenting an overview of the district heating systems in the EU and in the CEE countries. 1.1 DISTRICT HEATING IN EU AND CEE 1.1.1 LEGAL AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK

In most of the EU countries, there is no specific law for DH. District heating is considered as a business function, driven mainly by market forces. However, CHP/DHC fulfils tasks of general economic interest, mainly in relation to environmental policies.

Countries like the Netherlands and Sweden rely on fiscal/taxation incentives in order to promote CHP/DHC, while Germany, Austria and Denmark provide support to efficient CHP schemes through legislation (bonus systems). Renewables are also promoted through both, policy and regulatory/legislative measures.

As a part of the accession process to the EU, all selected CEE countries have passed energy laws/acts to create a general framework for the energy sector and to support market liberalization and the introduction of competition in line with the EU Directives.

Some of the CEE countries have developed specific DH/heat legislation. For example, Hungary issued a district heat law and Estonia is preparing one. In Croatia and Lithuania, DH aspects are addressed in heat laws. In the Czech Republic and Romania, DHC/CHP is seen as a part of the energy conservation policy and a cost-effective tool for implementing energy efficiency measures. In Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania, Latvia and Slovakia, the DH sector is considered a public service and is regulated as such.

Most CEE countries are strongly encouraging the development of electricity produced in CHP units and from renewable energy sources. CHP support measures include, among others: a guaranteed price level for CHP electricity (Estonia and Latvia for certain capacities), and a purchasing obligation for the electricity supplied by CHP plants (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia). The development of renewables is supported by targets, purchasing obligations, feed-in tariffs, and incentive mechanisms. Estonia uses a combination of three measures while Lithuania has an ambitious target for renewable energy production (12% by 2010). Hungary and Czech Republic have also established targets and Latvia, Bulgaria and Slovakia foresee purchasing obligations.

1.1.2 OWNERSHIP

In most EU Member States, the DH companies are either municipal or privately owned (Sweden, Finland, UK). As DH is a local business, municipalities play an important role. Conversely, the DH companies in these countries are acting in a market-driven environment, and with the energy market liberalization new trends such as mergers and take-overs create new structures.

Recent developments in the ownership structure of the DH companies in the CEE countries are mostly related to the restructuring process. Leasing, privatization and public-private partnerships are used in several Accession countries as a method of attracting financial sources for reforming and refurbishing the DH schemes.

In most CEE countries, the DH companies are owned by municipalities. In Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovakia and Latvia the DH systems are partially owned by the state. The Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Slovakia and Romania are in the process of privatizing the DH companies. Lithuania uses leasing extensively in order to attract investment funds.

A rough indication of the ownership structure in the CEE countries is provided in Figure 5.

1.1.3 COMPETITIVE ASPECTS The main competitor for the DH schemes in both EU Member States and the surveyed CEE countries is individual gas heating.

The competitive advantage of CHP/DHC mainly emerges from energy savings and the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. District heating, and especially CHP generation, also reduces sulphur dioxide (SO2), dust and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions, and therefore plays a major role in reducing the environmental impact of energy supply as well as in meeting the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. The country examples below illustrate this.

• In Austria in 1998, a reduction of 1.1 million tons of carbon dioxide was achieved by means of district heating and CHP.

• In Hungary, energy savings related to CHP (90% coupled to the DH schemes) represented 20 PJ/year in 1998, which was 2% of the total primary energy consumption. This resulted in the reduction of approximately 1 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

• In Italy in 2000, the DH schemes saved approximately 27% of energy which would have been used by conventional systems. Carbon dioxide emissions were reduced by 1.1 million tons, SO2 emissions by 13,000 tons and NOx by nearly 5000 tons.

• In the Netherlands, fuel savings achieved by using different CHP technologies ranged between 15% and 24% in 1999.

1.1.4 PRICES AND TAXES The DH prices in the EU Member States surveyed vary in the range of €27-69/MWh (US$31-79/MWh). Some countries apply a favorable value-added tax (VAT) for the DH sector (UK and Iceland). However, in France the VAT level is higher for DH (19.6%) than for electricity and gas (5.5%). In Sweden and Finland the trend is to substitute income taxes by indirect taxes, including energy taxes.

In the CEE countries, DH prices are situated in the range of €13-41/MWh ($15-47/MWh). In some cases there is a single residential heat price (independent of whether the heat is supplied from DH or individual gas boilers). Those Accession countries where the VAT rate is lower for households connected to the DH schemes (Czech Republic, Estonia, Lithuania) will have to develop measures to enhance the DH sector and counterbalance the negative effects induced by a possible future equalization of VAT taxes in the energy sector.

Various mechanisms are used for financing DH rehabilitation and modernization in the CEE countries. They range from direct governmental support to the use of third-party financing and leasing of capacity. However, private sector investments (mainly foreign) have an increasing importance - often being associated with the privatization process. In some cases, international financial institutions have played a catalytic role as well.

1.2 DISTRICT HEATING IN PRISHTINA 1.2.1 LEGAL AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK Legal and regulatory framework concerning district heating made a substantial progress in 2004. Functioning of the energy sector in Kosovo and establishment of an energy market was regulated by Law on Energy (Law NO. 2004/08). One of the purposes of the Law is to promote the efficient and economical use of energy resources. Article 9 of the Law states:

− The purpose of the energy efficiency policy shall be to encourage the efficient use of energy and energy resources and to promote renewable energy sources and co-generation.

− The economic regulation of activities in the energy sector shall be implemented in compliance with the Law on the Energy Regulator.

Based on the Law on Energy the Law on the Energy Regulator was passed and the Energy Regulatory Office was established. The Energy Regulatory Office has already issued two temporary instructions concerning district heating:

− Temporary Instruction No. 01/2004 On the Principles of Calculation of Prices and Tariffs in the District Heating Sector in Kosovo for the Heating Season 2004/2005

− Temporary Instruction No. 01/2004 On the Terms and Procedure for New Connections to the District Heating Distribution Network

1.2.2 OWNERSHIP

The United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo entrusted the Kosovo Trust Agency (KTA) to administer the publicly owned enterprises (POEs). One of them is the District Heating Enterprise in Pristina.

In regulation no. 2002/12 on the establishment of the Kosovo Trust Agency the Administrative Powers of the Agency over Enterprises was set.

1.2.3 PRICES AND TAXES According to the Law on Energy Regulator the Energy Regulatory Office (ERO) is responsible for setting methodology and approving the district heating tariffs in Kosovo. The district heating tariff rates for heating season 2004/2005 set by ERO are:

Consumer Class

DH Company "Termokos"

Prishtina DH Company

"Gjakova"

Residential 0.85 EUR/m2 per

month 0.82 EUR/m2 per

month

Commercial 1.10 EUR/m2 per

month 1.25 EUR/m2 per

month Taking into consideration the average size of flats and of the commercial area as well as the average heat consumption, the district heating prices in Prishtina amount to 37,5 EUR/MWh. Compared to the EU member states, the district heating prices in Prishtina are below the EU average. In comparison with the CEE countries, the district heating prices in Prishtina are on the upper side of the district heating price span. The district heating prices in Kosovo are subject to VAT.

2. FINDINGS AND SUGGESTIONS Most European district heating projects have two types of models. The first model is a single company responsible for heat generation, transmission and distribution. Model 1:

Single company

The second model includes two or more companies responsible for heat generation, transmission and distribution. Model 2:

Company A

Company B

The actual situation in Pristina is that there is an existing heating company TERMOKOS, which operates the district heating network. Another fact is that the Power Plant Kosovo B is also an independent business entity. The organizational model with two companies, one taking care of heat distribution and peak heat production and the other producing electricity and heat is quite common in the EU. Therefore we suggest that in case of Pristina the most feasible solution is to adopt the model of two independent companies. The business relationship between TERMOKOS and the Power Plant Kosovo B would be regulated by a Thermal Energy Service Agreement. The draft of the Thermal Energy Service Agreement is presented in the next chapter.

� Production � Transmission � Distribution

� Production � (Transmission)

� Distribution � (Transmission)

Another major issue is the company ownership.. After the incorporation process of TERMOKOS is finished, the company will be legally capable to raise loans. But beside legal capability the company should have enough financial strength to raise such loans. For financial reasons or any other reasons the municipality can grant a concession for heat supply and running the existing district heating system. The concession is an operating contract between the owner (the municipality) and the operator. The owner gives the right to the company to build and to operate the assets for a certain period of time against a concession fee. The advantages for the municipality are:

− The municipality keeps control over operations (property, rules, prices..); − The company operates and guarantees efficiency and service; − The local community can allocate funds to other priorities.

In case the concession proves to be, for financial or other reasons, a right solution, the municipality usually announces a public tendering for the concession. A draft of such concession tender is presented in chapter 3 of this task.

It means that in the parts of the Heating system, where already any billing for energetic services was in existence, there the Concessionaire will proceed the energetic services towards the end-customers according to the former billing principles, but with the prices in the “binomial” form offered by him and accepted by Grantor of concession. Tenderer offers particular prices relating to the billing services connected to particular conditions in the case of absence of measuring tools, as well as quotes a price for billing services connected to particular conditions in the case of presence of measuring tools, but under the stipulation that these measuring tools were stipulated in accordance with the installed measuring and billing plan presented in the Part 4. Object heating

During billing in accordance with the services’ price it is necessary explicitly to separate two following cases:

1. The case, if it takes place the acceptance of that part of the Heating system, which was in

possession of billing of any definite kind towards the end-customers in the moment of the acceptance. The following belongs to this particular case:

- existing district heating system

2. The case, if it takes place the acceptance of that part of the Heating system, which possessed with “rental” connection towards the end-customers in the moment of the acceptance, so there do not exist any billing before the acceptance by Concession agreement. The following belongs to this particular case:

- individual boiler houses

We would like particularly to note, that the Concessionaire should arrange mutual relations with the company Power Plant Kosovo B. The prices, the shifts of prices and all elements of terms of supply of thermal energy from the company Power Plant Kosovo B to the Tenderer are indicated in Appendix --- to the Common Conditions, and the tenderer is obliged take these conditions into his consideration in his price offer calculated for end-customers.

The concessionaire may freely find any other solution for providing of these consumers with heating energy, however it should be a profitable, economic and safe solution, or in the case if the concessionaire does not come to an arrangement with the present providers.

Consumer domestic hot water (SHW) (Optional) The concessionaire makes his suggestion for the selling unit price of the domestic hot-water to the end-customers consuming the domestic hot-water (SHW), to each end-customer separately, in accordance with the Plan of delivery and measurement, on the basis of real consumption provided to the end-customers and measured separately with one or more measuring tools installed under control of the concessionaire, and the price should be expressed in units of EUR per cubic meter. In the course of year all these prices may be corrected many times, depending on the arisen costs and according to the correcting equation, which as well should be offered in the offer of the tenderer. The equation should be indicated, and each basic principle or the one for alterations should be explained. The provided domestic hot-water should be billed once a month.

Concessionaires’ services in excess of their obligations

Any other interference in the work, which makes necessary of attraction of an additional staff, and which falls out of frameworks of the concessionaire responsibility (i.e. does not correspond to the above described services) is a subject of additional billing. The Tenderer in his offer should process all cases of such kind that could happen in this sector in the future, and he should develop an appropriate mode of billing for the case as well as a mode of the price changing. However, for the purpose of the Grantor of concession must be ready to provide the opportunity to cover the costs, which do not concern to sphere of the responsibility of the concessionaire, with the object to ensure reimbursement for the following accounting period, at the end of the current period the concessionaire as the service provider should present his report and estimations about that work quality that should be executed in the following accounting period.

Services billing and paying-off Concessionaire’s services billing and paying-off

The billing of the concessionaire’s services towards the end-customers should take place once a month, in an exactly determined and contracted day, the billed costs are concerned the previous month. The bill should be issued in accordance with the Concession agreement, settlement of the bill occurs within 30 days. An eventual price correction will be accounted and billed separately, for each month separately.

End- customers’ lateness in fulfilment of their responsibilities

1.2 FINANCIAL SOURCES It is assumed that Termokos will carry out the project which means that VAT on the investment can be compensated by VAT Termokos collects at heat sales. So the total funds needed to carry out the project amount to 37,492 thousand EUR. It is expected that the major part of the project will be financed by one of the international banks. Their share will be slightly over 60%. Furthermore, it is expected that Kosovo Government will, according to current legislation, grant a loan to finance a part of the first phase of the project. The governmental loan will represent 17% in total financing of the project. The rest of the financial sources will be provided by Termokos. Termokos funds will be primarily used to cover financing cost i.e. interest during construction and financial fees. The majority of Termokos funds are expected in the second phase of the project, when Termokos will already realize the financial benefits of the first phase of the project.

1.3 ENERGY PRICES Energy prices represent one of the key data for a financial analysis. The main data for the analysis are:

• electricity price 32 EUR/MWh • regulated price of heat 37,44 EUR/MWh • heavy fuel oil price 24,49 EUR/MWh • light fuel oil price 44,3 EUR/MWh

1.4 OPERATING COSTS In order to calculate profitability of district heat supply from the TPP Kosovo B it would be enough to calculate the operating costs of the new pipeline and both heating stations. But to get more insight into the financial operation of the district heating system in Prishtina it is quite important to include also the existing operating costs. Total costs of the district heat in Prishtina represent an important information for the presentation of the project. Costs estimation of the existing operation in Termokos Prishtina is based on the Methodology for Temporary Tariffs for the DH Companies in Kosovo – Heating Season 2004/05 and on the Annual Report of Termokos. The operating costs of the district heating system in Prishtina have been calculated in the following way: Fuel costs were calculated on the basis of heavy fuel and light fuel oil spent as well as on the quantities of district heat supplied from the TPP Kosovo B. The value of district heat supplied from the TPP Kosovo B was set by evaluating the loss in the electrical energy production. The electrical energy, which was not produced due to heat supply, was valued by electricity sales price, i.e. 32 EUR/MWh. Costs of maintenance and other material costs are estimated at 0.2% of the value for civil works and 1,5% of equipment investment costs. For the existing system the maintenance and other material costs in the year 2005 amount to 273 thousand EUR. In the next years we assume that material costs of the existing system will increase proportionally with the heat load of the system. Depreciation is calculated by considering 3,3% of the value for civil works and pipeline and 5% of the value for equipment of substations and other costs. For the existing system the yearly depreciation is 810 thousand EUR. In future, the existing depreciation cost will also increase proportionally with the heat load of the system.

File: Task6-par1-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2003

Costs of services are estimated at 0.5% of the investment costs. The existing system costs of services are 321 thousand EUR yearly. The anticipated heat losses from the source to the customers are approximately 10%. It is assumed that because of the new investment no new workers will be employed. The existing yearly labor costs are 554 thousand EUR. They are expected as well to increase proportionally with the heat load of the system. Labor costs are expected to rise due to the new employments and partly due to the increase of monthly wage and other related personal costs. A part of the total costs are also financing costs, which include interests on long term loans required to finance the project and interests on short term loans which are needed for current operation. Profit tax included in the calculations is in accordance with UNMIK Regulation No. 2002/3 –on Profit Taxes in Kosovo. According to the mentioned regulation the taxable profit shall be charged at the 20% rate. 1.5 CASH COLLECTION In the actual company’s life, cash collection represents a serious problem. In the household sector the payment rate in 2002 achieved 18%. In 2003, cash collection improved and it was 29%. In commercial sector (business and budgetary customers) the payment rate in 2002 achieved 24%, and in 2003 it decreased to 20%. At such low payment rates Termokos needs subsidies to cover the operating costs. If in the financial model that we used for calculation of the project profitability such low payment rates were considered, it would be impossible to prove the project profitability. Therefore, the unpaid bills were assumed as a recoverable debt in the model. In the year 2005, a longer receivables collection period (800 days) was assumed. In the next years, the collection period decreases and after a 10 year period, it reaches a 90 day collection period.

2. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The financial analysis was carried out by comparison of financial results obtained with the district heating connection to the TPP Kosovo B, with the financial results obtained without the connection to the TPP Kosovo B. The difference in the financial results of these two scenarios shows the financial successfulness of the project. The financial analysis was carried out for the following growth scenarios of the heat consumption in Prishtina:

− no growth scenario (sensitivity analysis), − low growth scenario, − medium growth scenario and − high growth scenario.

The main financial results of these scenarios are: FINANCIAL INDICATORS

Figure 1.2 presents the cost price of the district heat for the medium growth scenario without connection to the TPP Kosovo B and for the scenario with connection to the TPP Kosovo B. In case there is no connection to the Kosovo B the cost price in 2005 will be 44.38 EUR/MWh. In the future years, the cost price will increase mainly because of the raise of financing costs. Due to a long receivables collection period the amount of short term debt increases, which results in higher financing costs. In the year 2010 the cost price increase amounts to 46.63 EUR/MWh and in the year 2020, to 69.39 EUR/MWh.

In case of connection of the Prishtina district heating system to the TPP Kosovo B, the cost price in the year 2010, which is after the completion of the first phase, would decrease to 22.72 EUR/MWh. In the year 2020, the price would be 19.70 EUR/MWh which is less than a half of price of the case without the project.

Merely the comparison of cost prices itself shows the economical justification of the project.

Without connection to the TPP Kosovo B, Termokos will use heavy fuel oil as primary fuel. At district heating prices set by ERO the revenues will amount to 5.8 to 6.3 million EUR in the period 2005 – 2008. In the same period, the fuel costs will range from 5.8 to 6.3. This means that, at a 100% collection rate the revenues will suffice only to cover fuel costs. All the other uncovered costs will add up to 1.7 million EUR loss from operations. The structure of the operating costs for the year 2005 is shown in Figure 2.2. Figure 2.2

In all growth scenarios (low, medium, maximal) the first year of the first phase operation is 2008; in the year 2014, the second phase becomes operational.

When the connection to the TPP Kosovo B becomes operational, in all growth scenarios there is a significant 4.7 million decrease of fuel costs. Taking into consideration other operational costs which increase, the result is a 3.7 million increase in profit from operations. Since 78% of the investment is financed by loans, the interests in the year 2008 amount to 1.8 million EUR. But the net profit is still for 1.8 million EUR higher than in the case without connection.

The differences between scenarios become evident in the year 2014 that is after the second phase becomes operational. In the low growth scenario in 2014, there is an 8.2 million EUR decrease in fuel costs. Due to the increase of other operation costs the result is a 6.4 million EUR increase of profit from operations. The increase of net after tax profit is 5.8 million EUR.

In the medium growth scenario, the decrease of fuel costs is 9.0 million EUR. The increase of profit from operations is 7.2 million EUR and the increase of net profit after tax is 6.7 million EUR.

In the high growth scenario, the savings on fuel costs are 11.6 million EUR. The increase of profit from operations is 9.8 million EUR and the net profit increase is 9.2 million EUR.

In the years after 2014, in all 3 scenarios, the net profit increases, partly due to the increase of heat consumption and partly due to the decrease of interests. The interests diminish each year due to the loan repayment.

For the medium growth scenario the profit and loss account is presented in Figure 2.3.

As we can see from the Figure 2.3, after the year 2008, revenues exceed costs, which results in increasing of the net profit. If the district heating sales prices remain unchanged, the return on equity will exceed 20%. This means that the district heating sales prices can be lowered and still 10% - 16% yield on equity can be achieved.

For the medium growth scenario, the cash flow is presented in Figure 2.4

NET CASH FLOW

The period till 2014 can be defined as a construction period. In this period, Termokos raise long term loans to finance the investment and short term loans to cover loss from operations. Therefore, the net cash flow in this period ranges around zero. From the year 2014 onward, the net cash flow begins to rise. As we mentioned before, the main reason of the net cash flow rise lies in the expected growth of the district heat consumption which at present district heating prices yields big profits.

3. SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

The sensitivity analysis serves to show how the project profitability alters with the change of input data or suppositions.

A part of the sensitivity analysis shows what the project profitability would be with the supposition that only the first phase of the project is accomplished and that there is no growth of the district heat consumption. The results of such scenario are shown in Table 3.1

ECONOMICS OF THE PROJECT Pay-back period (years) 9 NPV at 12% discount rate (million EUR) 6.4 IRR 16.3%

As we can see from the Table 3.1 the internal rate of return is 16.3% and the NPV at a 12% discount rate is positive. The pay-back period in this scenario is 9 years. All this indicators show that even at the present scope of district heat sales, the realization of the first phase of the project is economically justified.

When interpreting the sensitivity analysis results one must bear in mind that the economics of the project were calculated as a difference between two scenarios, the one without connection to the TPP Kosovo B and the other with connection to the TPP Kosovo B. A major cost item in case of no connection to the TPP Kosovo B is fuel oil costs. Therefore the profitability of the project is very sensitive to fuel oil costs. A ten percent change in fuel oil prices results in a 17% change of the project NPV. The second most influential issue is change in the production scope, and in the scope of district heat sales, respectively. The 10% change in the production scope results in an 11% change of the project NPV. The next issue is the project sensitivity to investment costs since a 10% change in the investment costs results in a 7% change of the project NPV. The project is least sensitive to change in the district heating purchase price and district heating sales price. Sensitivity to district heating sales price is small since the change in district heating sales prices affects so the

scenario with as the scenario without connection to the TPP Kosovo. Actually, the influence of the district heating prices on the project profitability is high. At the existing district heating sales prices the return on equity in the year 2014 is 18.7%. If we decrease the sales prices for 10%, the return on equity in the year 2014 drops to 13.9%. If we decrease the sales prices for 18%, the return on equity in the 2014 is brought down to zero.

1. EXISTING SITUATION 1.1 EXISTING HEAVY FUEL BOILERS

Heat (hot water) for district heating system of Prishtina has been supplied by two existing heavy fuel oil boilers installed in 1998. During the heating season normally both boilers are in operation. The number of operating hours with one or both boilers in operation depends on the outside temperature (required heat capacity in the distribution net). The existing TERMOKOS heavy fuel boilers have a 2 x 58 MWt capacity (each boiler is ranked as a large combustion unit). The heat supply is insufficient due to bad condition of the existing district heating system. Maximal operating temperature is limited to 100 °C and the operation is interrupted during the night due to substantial leakage of the system. The TERMOKOS heavy fuel oil boilers operation data are as follows:

♦ Heavy fuel oil consumption: - at the maximal (rated) load: 2 x 6 tons/hour (2 x 1.67 kg/s) - at the average (normal) load: 4,31 tons/hour (1.197 kg/s); both

boilers - heavy fuel oil consumption per year: 12.301 tons/year

♦ Number of operating hours: 2.851 hours/year

♦ Boiler efficiency: estimated boiler efficiency is approx. 85 %

Heavy fuel oil with 2 % (mass) sulphur (S) content has been used to run the TERMOKOS boilers. At the maximal load the generated flue gas quantity (one boiler) is estimated to 66,700 mn

3/h (dry basis) with appropriate SO2 concentration of 3,600 mg/mn3 (dry basis).

The emission limit value for boilers with rated thermal input � 50 MWt is 1,700 mg/mn

3 (dry basis, O2=3%); according to Directive 2001/80/EC. The SO2 concentration in flue gases at the existing two boilers outlet is much higher than permitted. In order to operate the boilers in accordance with the emission standards from the Directive 2001/80/EC, fuel oil with sulphur content less than 1 % (mass) is required. Taking into account heavy fuel oil consumption of 12,301 tons per year the SO2 emission from both TERMOKOS boilers amounts to 492 tons per year. Corresponding carbon dioxide (CO2) emission from the existing two boilers amounts to 38,130 tons per year.

1.2 THERMAL POWER PLANT KOSOVO B

The Thermal Power Plant Kosovo B consists of two units with 339 MW electric power each. Rated thermal input of the unit is 845 MWth. Both units are producing electric energy for the grid and at the time being the units are not connected to the district heating system. The TPP Kosovo B operation data are as follows:

♦ Coal consumption: - at the maximal load 339 MWe: 2 x 416 tons/hour (2 x 115.5 kg/s)

♦ Low calorific value of the coal: 7,327 KJ/kg ♦ Number of operating hours: B1: 5823 h/year; B2: 4657 h/year

♦ Average coal data (chemical analysis) in mass %:

- C: 23.7 % - H: 1.8 % - O: 11.15 % - N: 0.4 % - S: 0.1 % - Moisture (W): 48.20 % - Ash 14.64 %

♦ Concentration of particles in flue gas (dry basis) – measured in 1994:

- average (B1): 80 mg/m3n

- average (B2): 171 mg/m3n

♦ NOx concentration in flue gas (dry basis) – measured in 1994:

- average (B1): 573 mg/m3n

- average (B2): 939 mg/m3n

♦ SO2 concentration in flue gas (dry basis) – measured in 1994:

- average (B1): 660 mg/m3n

- average (B2): 726 mg/m3n

♦ Ash and wet ash quantity:

- average: 50 – 70 t/h (per unit)

♦ Flue gas quantity at maximal load (per unit): - dry: 1.282,000 m3

n/h (calculated) - wet: 1.615,000 m3

♦ SO2 concentration in flue gas (dry basis, O2=6 %) – calculated

- average: 650 mg/m3n

♦ Carbon dioxide (CO2) quantity: 362,000 kg/h (per unit at full load)

In case of full load operation of the Kosovo B units B1 and B2 with the number of operating hours listed above, the SO2 emission amounts to 8,733 tons per year. In the same conditions the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission from the Kosovo B amounts to approx. 3.79 million tons per year. The emission limit values for the existing boilers with rated thermal input � 50 MWt (according to Directive 2001/80/EC) are as follows (dry basis, O2=6%):

♦ Particles: 50 mg/m3n

♦ SO2: 400 mg/m3n

♦ NOx: 200 mg/m3n ; Outermost Regions: 650 mg/m3

n ♦ CO: 250 mg/m3

n It is evident that most of pollutant concentrations (particles, SO2 and NOx) in flue gases at the Kosovo B TPP outlet are higher than permitted. The pollutant concentrations at the TPP Kosovo B outlet are not extremely high but, some technical improvements (measures) need to be peformed to reduce the particles and the SOx concentrations particularly. The Prishtina district heating system project (combined heat and power – CHP) foresees an operation of the TPP Kosovo B (units B1, B2) in accordance with the emission standards from the Directive 2001/80/EC.

2. COMBINED HEAT AND POWER (CHP) PROJECT 2.1 OPERATION OF TERMOKOS BOILERS

After the Combined Heat and Power (CHP Project) system realization, the existing TERMOKOS fuel boilers will operate to cover peak heat demand only. In order to meet air emission standards light fuel oil shall be used as an energy source (it is also possible to use some heavier fuel oil fractions but, with less than 1 % sulphur (S) content). The SO2 concentration in flue gas at the TERMOKOS boilers outlet shall not exceed 1,700 mg/mn

3 (dry basis, O2=3%). At the maximal boiler load the generated flue gas quantity (one boiler) is estimated to 66,700 mn

3/h (dry basis). The corresponding SO2 quantity will amount to approx. 113.3 kg/h (one boiler in operation). In order to assure full load operation of one TERMOKOS boiler, light fuel oil consumption of 1.6 kg/s is required. The carbon dioxide emission is 4.83 kg/s (17.4 t/h of CO2). Three different scenarios (projections) of heat demand growth which influence the TERMOKOS peak load boilers operating regime as well as air emissions are foreseen. The following peak load heat production using light fuel oil is foreseen: Low scenario: Low heat demand growth (existing heat demand in Pristina + heat demand growth of 12 % by the year 2020); taking into consideration that the existing district heating system is renovated and it operates with acceptable (standard) heat losses. It is foreseen that the average light fuel oil consumption in the years from 2008 to 2032 (25 years) will amount to 7,000.6 MWh/year (592 t/year of fuel). Medium scenario: Middle heat demand growth; it is foreseen that the average light fuel oil consumption in the years from 2008 to 2032 (25 years) will amount to 21,450 MWh/year (1,814 t/year of fuel). High scenario: High heat demand growth; it is foreseen that the average light fuel oil consumption in the years from 2008 to 2032 (25 years) will amount to 75,400 MWh/year (6,376 t/year of fuel).

2.2 TPP KOSOVO B OPERATION

Once the investment is realized both Kosovo B units (B1 and B2) will be able to operate as a Combined Heat and Power Plant producing electricity for the grid and heat to supply the Pristina district heating system. Compared to the existing TPP operating regime the electric energy production in the power plant will be reduced in order to achieve the required heat production. Reduction of electric energy production in the TPP due to combined electricity and heat production is calculated for different scenarios listed below. Within several scenarios, different heat demand of the town of Pristina was taken into account. Thermal efficiency of 36 % is used to calculate the consumption of coal needed in the process of heat production (portion of coal that belongs to heat production). The emissions calculation is based on the presumption that both units of the TPP Kosovo B will operate in accordance with the emission standards from the Directive 2001/80/EC. The following specific values were used for the air emission calculations (kg/kgf):

♦ Particles: 154 mg / kgf ♦ SO2: 1233 mg / kgf ♦ NOx: 616 mg / kgf (2000 mg / kgf) ♦ CO2: 0.87 kg / kgf

Low scenario: Low heat demand growth (existing heat demand in Pristina + heat demand growth of 12 % by the year 2020); taking into consideration that the existing district heating system is renovated and it operates with acceptable (standard) heat losses. An average coal consumption of 192.528 MWh/year (94.595 t/year of coal) in the years from 2008 to 2032 (25 years), which corresponds to heat production, is foreseen. Medium scenario: Middle heat demand growth; an average coal consumption of 326.908 MWh/year (160.620 t/year of coal) in the years from 2008 to 2032 (25 years), which corresponds to heat production, is foreseen. High scenario: High heat demand growth; an average coal consumption of 442.739 MWh/year (217.531 t/year of coal) in the years from 2008 to 2032 (25 years), which corresponds to heat production, is foreseen.

The TERMOKOS boilers are using heavy fuel oil; the estimated heat demand amounts to 185,844 MWh/year taking into consideration that the existing district heating system is renovated. Calculated future heavy fuel oil consumption (218.640 MWh/y) is much higher than nowadays (fuel consumption: 12,301 t/y = 140,095 MWh/y) because heat supply has not been sufficient by now and some existing buildings are anticipated for connection.

Average NOx emissions: 437.3 t/y; Average emissions of particles: 33.7 t/y Within “doing nothing” scenario it is presumed that the TERMOKOS heavy fuel oil boilers will operate also in future, using heavy fuel oil and covering the existing heat demand of 185,844 MWh/y. It is considered that the existing district heating system shall be renovated and it will be able to operate with acceptable (standard) heat losses. This represents a basis for the CO2 and SO2 emission reference values definition (CO2 emissions: 59,033 t/y; SO2 emissions: 725.89 t/y). The combined heat and electricity (power) production in the TPP Kosovo B will result in a reduction of the CO2 emissions by 23.6 % and of the SO2 emissions by 91.1 % (taking into account the same heat demand of 185.844 MWh/y). The expected CO2 reduction is 13,948 t/y, while the expected SO2 reduction is 661.6 t/y. Depending on different future heat demand projections the CO2 emissions will increase substantially according to the heat demand growth (see tables above). On the other hand, the SO2 emission quantities will be lower than the reference value even in case of the high heat demand scenario (projection III).

4. ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

The Kyoto Protocol objectives and, more recently, the constraints on energy sources enhanced the priority given to energy efficiency policies. Transport and energy production remain the sectors where the achievements (results) concerning efficient energy use are still insufficient (particularly in Kosovo region). Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that must be reduced following the Kyoto Protocol objectives are strongly connected to energy efficiency. Besides natural gas introduction instead of coal (replacement of energy source), the energy efficiency is one of the most effective measure to reduce the CO2 emissions from the thermal energy production units. The specific CO2 emissions (kg CO2 per calorific value of fuel) of different fuels are as follows:

♦ Coal: 0.119 kg CO2 / MJ ♦ Heavy fuel oil: 0.078 kg CO2 / MJ ♦ Light fuel oil: 0.074 kg CO2 / MJ ♦ Natural gas: 0.056 kg CO2 / MJ

It is evident that the specific CO2 emission using natural gas is approximately twice as low as in case of using coal. But in Kosovo they have large domestic coal mines and very limited possibilities of natural gas supplies. Therefore, the efficient use of coal in the existing thermal power plants is the most realistic and feasible technical option. The Combined Heat and Power (CHP Project) is a fuel efficient energy technology that, unlike conventional forms of power generation, puts to use the by-product heat that is normally wasted to the environment. Simultaneous generation of useful heat and power can increase the overall efficiency of fuel use to even more than 75 % (approximately), compared with around 36 % from conventional (Kosovo B) electricity generation. The supply of heat provides an economic benefit for supplier and user alike as well as providing environmental benefits. From the environmental point of view the advantages of the Pristina CHP project are evident. Due to an increase of the overall fuel efficiency the specific emissions of carbon dioxide will be reduced. Residents of Pristina who are now using electricity for heating purposes should switch over from electricity to district heating system. It is estimated that approximately 9,000 MWh / year of electricity generated in the TPP that is used for heating purposes will be replaced with heat supplied from the district heating system. Namely, electricity is the most expensive and the most valuable energy source which should not be used for heating. It is not acceptable to

Page 311: CHP Feasibility Study

TASK 7 4-2

File: Task7-par4-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

use electricity generated in a power plant for heating while in the same time the by-product heat is wasted through the cooling system. Each MWh of heat produced in a thermal power plant CHP process results in a reduction of the electricity generation for approximately 0.2 MWhe only. As mentioned before, the most of pollutant concentrations (particles, SO2 and NOx) in flue gases at the TPP Kosovo B outlet are higher than permitted but, they are not extremely high. Emissions from the unit B2 are a little bit higher than from the unit B1 (unit B1 is obviously in better condition). Comparison of emission concentrations from the unit Kosovo B2 with emission standards shows the following results (index of exceeding):

♦ Particles: 171 mg/mn3 � 50 mg/mn

3 (index: 3.42) ♦ SO2: 726 mg/mn

3 � 400 mg/mn3 (index: 1.81)

♦ NOx: 939 mg/mn3 � 650 mg/mn

3 (index: 1.44) With some technical improvements (measures) in view of particles, SOx and NOx concentrations reduction from the Kosovo B TPP the Combined Heat and Power project will bring significant benefits to the Prishtina region as regards environmental protection.

1. SURVEY AND IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL FINANCIERS

1.1 FINANCIAL SOURCES There are many types of finances potentially available to energy projects and it is usually a mixture of different sources of finance which results in a financial package. The key issue which influences the selection of financial sources is the capital structure (or debt equity split). The next major role determining the financial sources have the participants in the project such as investor, suppliers of equipment, contractors, and financiers (banks and other financial institutions). The main financial sources available to energy projects are:

− The World Bank Group, − European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), − The European Investment Bank (EIB), − Government export financing agencies, − Domestic government, − International commercial banks, − Venture capital companies, companies that are interested in taking an equity stake in

the project and − contractors and suppliers debt financing.

Connecting of the district heating system in Pristhina to the TPP Kosovo B can be identified also as an environmental project. Owing to the project the overall SO2 emissions will be reduced. Moreover, due to the economical use of fuel (cogeneration) CO2 emissions will be reduced as well. Consequently, by pointing out the environmental benefits and efficient use of energy, the project can compete for Global Environment Facility (GEF) funds. The international development banks can play an important role in financing of the district heating project in Pristhina. World Bank is currently or has recently financed district heating projects in Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria and other countries. Also EBRD has recently financed district heating projects in Bulgaria, Poland, Czech Republic and other countries. In the process of potential financers identification the financing capabilities of the company TERMOKOS should be checked as well. The funds availability of the Pristhina municipality should be also considered. When the TERMOKOS and municipality financial sources are established, the general outlines of a financial package can be set. As a general rule, the maximum debt equity split required by the international financial institutions is 70% debt and 30% of equity financing. If TERMOKOS and the local community can not assure at least 30% of their own financial sources, concession or BOT model of financing would be appropriate.

1.2 BUILD, OPERATE AND TRANSFER (BOT) MODEL 1.2.1 DEFINITION BOT is an approach to infrastructure development, which enables direct private sector investment in the infrastructure projects.

The theory of BOT is as follows:

Build – A private company (or consortium) agrees with a government to invest in a public infrastructure project. The company then secures their own financing to construct the project.

Operate – the private developer owns, maintains, and manages the facility for an agreed concession period and recoups their investment through charges or tolls.

Transfer – after the concessionary period the company transfers ownership and operation of the facility to the government or relevant state authority.

1.2.2 PARTIES TO BOT PROJECTS There are a number of major parties to any BOT project and all of them have particular reasons to be involved in the project. The contractual arrangements between those parties, and the allocation of risks, can be complex.

The major parties to a BOT project will usually include:

1. Government Agency A government department or a statutory authority is a pivotal party. It will:

• grant the sponsor the “concession”, that is the right to build, own and operate the facility,

• grant a long term lease of or sell the existing facility to the sponsor, and

• often acquire most or all of the service provided by the facility.

The government co-operation is critical in large projects. It may be required to assist in obtaining the necessary approvals, authorizations and permits for the construction and operation of the project. It may also be required to provide comfort that the agency acquiring services from the facility will be in a position to honor its financial obligations.

The government agency is normally the primary party. It will initiate the project, conduct the tendering process and evaluation of tenders, and will grant the sponsor the concession, and where necessary, the off-take agreement.

2. Sponsor The sponsor is a party, usually a consortium of interested groups (typically including a construction group, an operator, a financing institution, and other various groups) which, in

Page 316: CHP Feasibility Study

TASK 8 1-3

File: Task8-par1-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

response to the invitation by the Government Department, prepares the proposal to construct, operate, and finance the particular project.

The sponsor may take the form of a company, a partnership, a limited partnership, a unit trust or an unincorporated joint venture.

3. Construction Contractor The construction company may also be one of the sponsors. It will take construction and completion risks, that is, the risk of completing the project on time, within budget and in accordance to specifications.

4. Operation and Maintenance Contractor The operator will be expected to sign a long-term contract with the sponsor for the operation and maintenance of the facility. Again the operator may also inject equity into the project.

5. Financiers In a large project there is likely to be a syndicate of banks providing the debt funds to the sponsor. The banks will require a first security over the infrastructure created. The same or different banks will often provide a stand-by loan facility for any cost overruns not covered by the construction contract.

6. Other Parties Other parties such as insurers, equipment suppliers and engineering and design consultants will also be involved. Most of the parties too will involve their lawyers and financial and tax advisers.

1.2.3 ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF BOT PROJECTS Potential benefits of BOT financing for infrastructure include:

BOT provides a modality through which commercial financing can be attracted for infrastructure projects. As global private capital flows increase and play an increasingly important role in financing, especially for developing economies, BOT will help to make infrastructure projects accessible to the growing sources of private sector capital, and thus accelerate infrastructure development.

Competitively awarded BOTs lower the cost of providing infrastructure and the tariffs for consumers. If suitable pre-qualification criteria are adopted, private sector involvement will ensure good quality services provided to the customers. A competitive BOT bidding process will involve a larger pool of investors to ensure the best qualified bidders to win the contract at best available prices. In comparison with joint ventures, competitively bid BOTs encourage more competition, which reduces costs.

Page 317: CHP Feasibility Study

TASK 8 1-4

File: Task8-par1-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

In comparison with the modality of equity plus traditional debt financing often secured on a credit or asset basis, BOT allows limited recourse financing secured partly by project-generated cash flows. It can decompose the underlying investment risks and allocate the risks to the parties that are most suitable to mediating them. This leads to reduction of costs of financing.

On the operation and management side, BOT provides a mechanism and incentives for enterprises to improve efficiency through performance-based contracts and output-oriented targets. It reduces the role of the public sector mainly to developing a framework conducive to fair competition, formulating strategic policies and setting up strategic objectives and targets. It leaves the decisions on how to achieve the targets to private sector.

Potential disadvantages of BOT include:

It involves multiple entities and requires a relatively complicated legal and institutional framework. As a result, it may take a long time and considerable up front expenses to prepare and close a BOT financing deal. This is especially true in countries where the legal and policy framework are not well developed. The up front expenses tend to be fixed regardless the size of the project. Therefore the BOT modality may not be suitable for small projects.

Even with a good framework, it may take time to develop the necessary institutional capacity to ensure that the full benefits of BOT are realized, such as development and enforcement of transparent and fair bidding and evaluation procedures and the resolution of potential disputes during implementation.

2. PROJECT FINANCING 2.1 DEBT EQUITY RATIO AND AMOUNT OF DEBT Total investment costs without financing costs and VAT amount to 34,642,000 EUR. Total investment costs can be divided among those investments that belong to Termokos Prishtina and those that belong to KEK – TPP Kosovo B. Division of investment costs between two companies is presented in Table 2.1 Table 2.1 INVESTMENT COSTS Prices as per January 2005 in 000 EUR Termokos TPP Kosovo B Total Civil works 3,149 705 3,854 Equipment 22,965 2,850 25,815 Other 4,176 797 4,973 Total 30,289 4,352 34,642

Investment share 87.4% 12.6% 100.0%

As a general rule, the debt equity ratio acceptable to international financial institutions is 30% to 40% of equity financing and 70% to 30% of debt financing. In 2003, total assets of Termokos amounted to 27.0 million EUR. If grants are treated as some kind of equity, then 61% of assets were financed by equity and 39% by loans. In the same year, total assets of Korporata Energjetike Kosoves (KEK) amounted to 421.7 million EUR; 86% of them were financed by equity and 14% by loans. In future, the amount of assets and the debt equity ratio for both companies will change. The investment cost of both phases of the district heating project that belong to KEK is 4.3 million EUR. Compared to KEK assets in 2003, this represents a 1% increase in the assets. If KEK raises a 4.0 million EUR loan to finance his part of the project, the debt equity ratio will be practically the same as in 2003. In case of realization of this project, KEK will not be heavily encumbered with debts. At present, KEK has great needs or opportunities to finance various projects. Therefore, other projects could represent quite a threat for the realization of the district heating project.. Also KEK low collection rates (60% in 2003) can represent a problem with reference to the district heating project financing.

Page 320: CHP Feasibility Study

TASK 8 2-2

File: Task8-par2-rev1.DOC - IBE Revizija: 1 Objekt: KOSOVO COMBINED HEAT AND POWER Datum: 21.3.2005

In 2003, total assets of Termokos amounted to 27 million EUR. The investment cost of both phases of the district heating connection to the TPP Kosovo B that belong to Termokos is 30.3 million EUR. Compared to Termokos assets in 2003, this represents a 112% increase in the assets. Actually, the investment will be carried out in two phases and that second phase will be finished in 2013. If we neglect this fact and compare the influences of the project on the Termokos balance sheet of the year 2003, the assets, as mentioned before, more than redouble. If 25.1 million EUR loans are raised to finance the project, the total loans of Termokos will amount to 35.6 million EUR. Taking into consideration the existing debt and the expected loan to finance the district heating project, the total debt financing will represent 62% of total assets. This means that raising a 25.1 million loan brings us close to a debt equity ratio that is still acceptable to the financial institutions. Discussing the amount of debt that Termokos can raise for the district heating project financing, we can not by pass the low bill collection rate. The 20% collection rate represents a serious problem. At such collection rates the money collected does not suffice to cover fuel costs. With such low collection rates, even with governmental or local community guarantees, raising of loans in financial institutions becomes practically impossible. Low collection rates lead the project in a vicious circle. Due to low collection rates there are no funds to carry out the connection to the TPP Kosovo B, which will enable substantial savings on the fuel costs. Lower fuel cost can result in lower district heating prices. 2.2 LOAN AMORTIZATION The sum of all loans to finance both phases of connection to the TPP kosovo B is 29,138,000 EUR. The distribution of loans between Termokos and KEK and between the first and the second phase is presented in Table 2.2 Table 2.2
