This teaser about Solar Project (Siraj Power) in Qatar is prepared by POWERGLOBE QATAR, Renewable Energy Division and ENERCAP Company (France)

The Siraj Project Qatar will be a milestone in the history of the country, but also on an internationalscale. It's one of the top five projects in the world, and none is this big in the Middle East.

The Project is required high expertise, outstanding know-how and innovative solutions across therenewable energy industry. The project should be developed, constructed and operated according tolocal environmental protection regulations and high international standards.

Introduction• This Project in Qatar is a reference project that will be a milestone in the history of the country, but also on

an international scale. It's one of the top five projects in the world, and none is this big in the middle east.

• The Project is required to be developed, constructed and operated according to local environmentalprotection regulations and stipulations. The development of a full environmental impact assessment will berequired as a part of the Project. The successful Bidder will be responsible for obtaining all necessaryenvironmental approvals for the Project.

• A construction work on a 500MW PV solar power project will commence in June 2018 and is expected to befully operational by 2020. Project estimated Budget US$650M. Project location Al Kharsaa, Qatar.

• The project will be developed by Siraj Power, a joint venture of Qatar Electricity and Water Company andQatar Petroleum, which has a capital base of US$500 million, is owned 60 percent by QEWC while QatarPetroleum owns the 40 percent balance.

• The 500MW PV solar asset will be 60% Qatar state ownership and 40% private ownership(developers/investors). Deadline for pre-qualification report submission to Kahramaa, June 25th 2018.

• The project involves the construction of a 500MW solar power plant in Qatar and the US$650 millionincludes the following:

• Construction of substations

• Construction of solar panel platforms

• Installation of solar panels

• Installation of transformers / Laying of transmission lines

General Overview

• Anticipated that the COD will be in December 2020.

• PV Panel Technology (Fix System? Tracking System 1 axis? Tracking System double

axis? )

• Expected Power Generation exceeds 1TWh / year

• PPA will set out the terms upon which the Company will design, construct and

commission the Project and sell power output to KAHRAMAA, in return for tariff

described below.

• PPA Term : The PPA is expected to be for an operating period of 25 years from

COD.

• Tariff Structure: In return for the Company selling the power output to

KAHRAMAA, KAHRAMAA anticipates that it will pay the Company an energy

charge comprising of a fixed and variable charge. The RFB will set out the detailed

tariff structure for the Project. These charges will be set according to the amounts

included and evaluated in the successful Bidder’s proposal.

Page 10: Introduction to - Power Globe - Siraj Solar (500MW...taxes, insurance, security…and climate (especially sands and aerosols)…~1,5% to 2,5% per annum of the total project cost. Percent

General Overview

• Project Location

• Al Kharsaa, Qatar

• Excellent Solar Irradiation and Excellent

conditions for installing and operating a solar

PV Power Plant

• Availability of the space required for

construction and operation

• Easy connection to the power grid

Page 11: Introduction to - Power Globe - Siraj Solar (500MW...taxes, insurance, security…and climate (especially sands and aerosols)…~1,5% to 2,5% per annum of the total project cost. Percent

General Overview

Space is required for the panels development:

• The area required for the power plant will depend on the site and local conditions and will also depend on

technology.

• But roughly we can estimate that ~600 to 1,000 ha are required for the power plant and the associated

installation, at Al Kharsaa, Qatar.

Indicative time for project completion (after licensing):

• ~1 to 1,5 year

The total cost of development : US$ 650M (+/- 10%)

• The cost required for the power plant and the associated installation will depend on the site and local

conditions, on the required associated installation (substation, connection to the grid) and also depend on

technology.

• O&M cost depends also on technology, quality of the component and local conditions such as land lease,

taxes, insurance, security…and climate (especially sands and aerosols)… ~1,5% to 2,5% per annum of the

total project cost. Percent of indicative cleaning costs (operating in a desert like Qatar) about ~20% of the

O&M costs.

Bidder Consortium

• The successful Bidder is expected to establish a Qatari SPV to implement the Project and toenter into the project agreements. The project agreements that the Company will be requiredto enter into will be substantially in the same form as for previous I(W)PPs successfullydeveloped and financed in Qatar. To facilitate the bid process, it is the intention that full draftsof these agreements will be available at the RFB stage.

• QEWC is a Qatari share holding Company with 42% shares owned by the Government of Qatar.The Government share of the project is 60% in which QEWC share is 60% and QP share is 40%.The rest (40%) is intended for private investors.

• Siraj is the SNI representing the State of Qatar for this Project.

• SNIs will have up to 60% and that the developer will have 40% or more.

• A JV between Siraj and the bidder that will own and develop the 500 MW.

• Total cost of the Project estimated to ~US$ 650M. So US$160M equity and US$ 490 M debt.

• The successful bidder will provide the full debt and its own share of the equity.

• The debt cannot come exclusively from Qatar

Financing Proposal / Term Sheet

Financing for the Project

• Financing for the Project will be the sole responsibility of the successful Bidder. The Bidder willnot be restricted in any way from sourcing finance for the Project from a combination of its ownresources and from the debt markets. KAHRAMAA recognizes that the successful Bidder maywish to raise limited resource financing in relation to the Project and that lenders may expect tobe afforded certain rights in relation to such financing. Accordingly, if required, relevant Projectcontracts will contain provisions requiring the counterparties to enter into appropriate directagreements with the lenders. Bidders will be expected to submit bids with a minimum level ofcommitted project financing, the details and extend of which will be specified in the RFB.

• Those seeking to utilize other sources of finance will need to demonstrate and provide similarevidence that the required funding has been allocated for the Project. Bidders shall not bepermitted to solicit the involvement of Qatari banks and lending institutions on an exclusivebasis.
