GENERATION OF ELETRICITY IN SOUTH AFRICA
1
...
The steam is coordinated onto the edges of a turbine to
create it pivot
...
Once the steam has passed through the turbines, it must be cooled and condensed
...
Within the kettle it’ll be turned into steam once more
and will restart the cycle
...
This
spares time and cash and makes difference keep the fetched of power down
...
1
...
The gravitational potential vitality
of water from the water or dam , due to its tallness over the turbine , is to begin
with changed over into active vitality (due to development of the water down
towards the turbines) and at that point changed over into electricity energy
...
Once it is drive has been utilized to create the power
the water is channelled back into the stream underneath the control station
...
3 PUMPED STORAGE SCHEMES
Pumped capacity hydroelectric control stations are utilized in ranges with lacking
water supplies
...
When there id a request
for power , water streams from the upper dam turning the turbines within the
control station to produce power
...
4 ELECTRICITY FROM GAS
In Eskom gas turbine control stations, a fuel/air bled is touched off to create a hot
tall speed gas
...
Where accessible ,characteristics gas can be utilized as elective to fluid
powers such as diesel or lamp fuel
...
5 ELECTRICITY FROM THE ATOM
Within the case of atomic control stations water is warmed not by burning a coal ,
but by the warm discharged in atomic response
...
This is done by
agent of a car causes the car to speed up or moderate down
...
The warm from the essential circuit is
exchanged to a partitioned auxiliary circuit where water is turned into a steam
...
The steam is at
that point condensed and returned for reuse

1 What is Electricity charge (TERIFF)
Is the rate at which an electricity energy is sold by the supplier to various types of
consumers
...
The cost of power can be obtained from the cost of
production of a commodity or a units
...
2
...
Watt is the unity of power
...
Types of electric charge

Simple tariff
Flat rate Tariff
Block Meter Tariff
Two part Tariff
Maximum Tariff
Power factor Tariff
Three Factor Tariff
2
...
1 Simple Tariff
In this type of tariff a fixed rate is applied for each unit of the energy consumed
...
Energy cost is constant for a particular time
...
Annual fixed charges and annual running charges are known
COST Per Unit=
𝑨𝒏𝒏𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝒇𝒊𝒙𝒆𝒅 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒔+𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝒓𝒖𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒔
𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕
Advantages of using simple tariff
• Simple method
• Easily understandable and to apply
• Each consumer has a pay accordingly to his/her utilization
Disadvantages of simple tariff
• The cost per unit Is high
• There are not incentive
• There is no discrimination according to the different type of consumers
2
...
2 FLAT RATE TARIFF
In this type of tariff ,one consumers is charged at different rate of cost compere to
another consumer
...
Then each
group is charged at fixed rate differently to other groups
...
On this type of
tariff the cost of power consumption depends only on maximum demand of load It
used on street light ,irrigation Sign light because the time period is unknown , The
load factor and the diversity factor are considered
Diversity factor =
𝑴𝒂𝒙𝒊𝒎𝒖𝒎 𝒅𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒆
𝒔𝒖𝒎 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒙𝒊𝒎𝒖𝒎 𝒅𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒖𝒎𝒆𝒓
Load factor
𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒔 𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒂 𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒊𝒐𝒅
=
𝑴𝒂𝒙𝒊𝒎𝒖𝒎 𝒅𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒅∗𝟖𝟕𝟔𝟎
ADVANTAGES OF THE FLATT RATE TARIFF
• Transparency , it is transparent and easy for customers to understand
...
It is faire if the consumers that utilize more
energy be charge at lower fixed rate
2
...
3BLOCK METER RATE TARIFF
In this type of tariff , consumption of energy is divided into blocks
...
The prices of the blocks is arranged in the decreasing order ,
the first block has a highest cost , as it goes on ,it decrease accordingly
2
...
4 TWO PART TARIFF
When the rate of electricity energy is charged on the basis of maximum demand of
the consumers and the units consumed it is called part tariff
