WRITING ON THE WALL

“The single biggest risk that exists to the economy today”

- U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson on climate change

- Paul Simpson CEO CDP

"The transition to a low carbon economy will not be successful without a paradigm shift in the way we power our planet. That shift needs to gather pace rapidly but also be conducted in a pragmatic way,"

- Philip Ryan, Chairman Swiss Re Americas

“At IKEA, we see climate change as one of the most significant risks that businesses face today, but tackling it is also a significant opportunity. ..”

- Peter Agnefjäll, CEO IKEA

"It makes better business sense than ever to ensure we end the destruction of our natural resources and reduce our carbon output.

- Sir Richard Branson, CEO -Founder Virgin Group

OUR VISION

Page 4

CHANGING ENERGY BEHAVIOUR-

ORIGIN MATTERS

Page 5: Preben Munch - Creating new Renewable Power from the Sale of Guarantees of Origin

ECOHZ GO2 => ENERGY SYSTEM TRANSFORMATION

Page 5

Fossil generation Renewables Displace fossil generation More Renewables

ECOHZ GO2

Current energy system System transformed by ECOHZ GO2

New renewables displace old carbon-intensive generation

Page 6: Preben Munch - Creating new Renewable Power from the Sale of Guarantees of Origin

ECOHZ GO2 – WHAT IT IS

• 1 MWh of renewable power with GO

• Zero Scope 2 emission guarantee

• A financial component • Network of corporate energy behaviour

Thought Leaders

Page 6

Each ECOHZ GO2 documents current renewable consumption

• Transparency and traceability

• Access to the most efficient way to participate in the renewables future

• “Proprietary” link to the new power plant –exclusive story

Page 7: Preben Munch - Creating new Renewable Power from the Sale of Guarantees of Origin

ECOHZ GO2 - HOW IT WORKS

• 1MWh; of € 4.00 price, € 3.20 (80%) committed to agreed new renewable project

• Funding administered by a special purpose foundation• High leverage effect; financing maximum 15% of

project costs (top-up)• All loans repaid to foundation, creating revolving fund

and achieve multiplier effect• Third-party verification and audit, and compliance with

forthcoming CDP Standard

Page 7

Each ECOHZ GO2 contributes to future new renewable production

Page 8: Preben Munch - Creating new Renewable Power from the Sale of Guarantees of Origin

ENERGY POSITIVE:POWER PRODUCTION = x CONSUMPTION Power consumption in a year (example)

100,000 MWh (zero carbon through GO)

Procurement cost through ECOHZ GO2

100,000 x € 4.00 per MWh = € 400,000

Money committed to funding of projects

80% (€ 3.20 / 4.00) = € 320,000

Top financing of a new small hydro plant

8% of € 4,000,000 = € 320,000

Power produced by new plant

8,500 MWh per year

Power produced over 40 years’ life

300,000+ MWh (3x original consumption)
