Includes bibliographical references. This work has two main objectives, first to create a working energy model of South Africa’s electricity sector using the open source software; OSeMOSYS, and secondly, using this model to understand the unstudied effects of net metered capacity within the country and how this affects the planning of the energy sector in the future, which is done through processes such as the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). Using a combination of electricity tariffs and solar PV price projections, and the Bass diffusion model, an estimated range of the total amount of installed MW capacity of rooftop solar PV within the residential sector of South Africa was determined. 2015-01-03T04:57:13Z 2015-01-03T04:57:13Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11060 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
